What makes Zoho One a better alternative to Microsoft Dynamics 365?

All-in-one with one price tag

Zoho One is a single subscription model that gives you everything you need to run a business in one place, whereas Microsoft Dynamics 365 cloud repackages necessary business functions as add-ons that come with additional price tags. With Zoho One, you get ownership over your business ecosystem via Zoho's private cloud. You can still make it interoperable with any third-party apps that you already use.

Comprehensive without the complexity

Break the cycle of moving back and forth between on-premise and cloud software. Move to a unified database without the superfluous middleware that burdens your tech stack. Zoho One is the leaner tech stack that provides flexibility, adaptability, and toll-free access to your business data.

Applications suite

As a business owner, you probably face a multitude of challenges already, like hiring the right people, addressing fluctuations in market demand, inconsistent profits, or countless software outages. Zoho One comes with 50+ agile apps that adapt to your business and how you steer your capital in the right direction, moving one with you.

Alternative to multiple "free" versions

Are you working with a 2019 version of MSD 365 integrated with a 2017 version of your accounting software—or on a free trial that ends in three days? Switch to a secure, all-in-one suite instead of switching between multiple pirated software tools. Show your customers they're worthy of dependable tech that will keep their data safe.
