About the Service

Your CRM Platform Deserves More Than a Helpdesk Ticket

Our D365 Managed Support Service gives your organisation a dedicated team of Microsoft-certified consultants who act as an extension of your own IT function — proactively monitoring your platform, resolving issues at pace, and preventing problems before they impact your users.

Unlike a break-fix support contract, our managed service is continuous and proactive. We stay close to your environment, prepare you for Microsoft wave releases, and help you get more value from your CRM investment month after month.

The result: Fewer outages, happier users, a CRM that evolves with your business — and a support team that already knows your environment when you need them most.

All engagements are backed by a formal Service Level Agreement, with named contacts, transparent reporting, and a dedicated escalation path.

Proactive, Not Reactive

We monitor your environment continuously, flagging issues before they become incidents and ensuring Microsoft wave updates never catch you off-guard.

Named Consultants — Not a Call Queue

You get a dedicated named consultant who knows your platform, your users, and your business. No starting from scratch every time you raise a ticket.

SLA-Backed & Transparent

Every support tier comes with a formal SLA, monthly reporting, and a clear escalation path — so you always know what to expect.

More Than Break-Fix

Managed support includes configuration changes, minor enhancements, release readiness, and user training — not just incident resolution.

Service Scope

Everything Covered Under Managed Support

Our managed support goes far beyond logging tickets. Here's what you can expect from your support team every month.

Incident Management

Rapid response to CRM incidents — from form errors and workflow failures to data corruption and integration outages — with full root cause analysis and documentation for every critical ticket.

Proactive Health Monitoring

Continuous automated monitoring of your D365 environment — plugin performance, integration health, storage thresholds, and system job failures — with proactive alerts before users notice an issue.

Wave Release Management

Full review of each Microsoft wave release and update notes, impact analysis against your customisations, sandbox regression testing, and a clear rollout recommendation — so you're never surprised by an update.

Configuration & Minor Changes

A monthly bank of hours for configuration changes, view updates, business rule adjustments, dashboard creation, and minor workflow amendments — handled by your named consultant without the need to raise a separate project.

User Support & Training

First-line support for end-user queries, how-to guidance, and functional questions — plus structured onboarding sessions for new users and refresher training when new features roll out.

Monthly Reporting & Reviews

Clear monthly service reports covering ticket volumes, SLA performance, open issues, and upcoming risks — with a regular review call with your named consultant to discuss priorities and platform direction.

Sound Familiar?

The Hidden Cost of Under-Supported D365

These are the most common frustrations organisations face when relying on ad-hoc or vendor-only support for their Dynamics 365 CRM.

Incidents sat unresolved for days

Microsoft's standard support tiers can take 24–72 hours to respond to issues that are actively blocking your sales or service teams — costing you revenue and credibility.

Wave updates breaking your platform

Microsoft releases two major waves per year. Without a team actively preparing your environment, each update is a risk of unexpected customisation failures and downtime.

Explaining your platform from scratch every call

Revolving-door support teams with no context on your environment mean every ticket starts with hours of background-setting before any real work begins.

Small changes taking weeks to deliver

Every minor CRM change — a new field, an updated form, a modified workflow — requires a new project, a new statement of work, and months of wait time.

No visibility into what's happening

No regular reporting, no platform health trends, and no early warning when things are going wrong — leaving you flying blind on CRM performance and stability.

Growing user frustration & low adoption

Users with nowhere to turn for functional support find workarounds, stop using the CRM properly, or raise noise with senior leadership — eroding the value of your investment.

How It Works

From Sign-Off to Full Support in 2 Weeks

Our onboarding is structured to get you protected quickly, without disrupting your team — and to ensure your support consultant understands your platform from day one.

Step 1 · Days 1–2

Discovery & Scoping

We start with a structured onboarding call to understand your CRM environment, current pain points, team structure, and priorities. We agree service tier, response protocols, and escalation contacts — and introduce your named consultant.

Scoping callSLA agreementNamed consultant introEscalation path
Step 2 · Days 3–7

Platform Familiarisation

Your consultant is granted access to your environment and conducts a structured review — documenting your solution structure, integrations, key customisations, and any known issues. This knowledge base becomes the foundation of your support service.

Step 3 · Day 8–10

Ticketing & Processes Go Live

Your ticketing portal is activated, contact details shared with your team, and monitoring alerts enabled. We hold a handover call with your users to walk through how to log tickets, what to expect, and how to escalate. Full SLA cover begins.

Is This Right For You?

Who Managed Support Is Designed For

IT Teams Without a D365 Specialist

Your IT function covers a wide remit but has no in-house Dynamics 365 expertise. Managed support fills that gap with certified CRM consultants on demand.

→ Specialist expertise on tap

Post-Implementation Stabilisation

You've recently gone live with D365 and need hypercare-style support to stabilise the platform, resolve teething issues, and support users during adoption.

→ Go-live & hypercare support

Transitioning Between Partners

Your current implementation partner is unavailable, unresponsive, or you've had a difficult experience — managed support provides stable continuity and a fresh start.

→ Partner transition cover

Complex Enterprise Deployments

You operate a multi-module, multi-geography D365 environment and need a support service that has the depth and capacity to match that complexity — including 24/7 critical cover.

→ Enterprise-grade managed support

Rapidly Growing Businesses

Your user base is expanding, new modules are being added, and your CRM needs to evolve quickly. Managed support provides the continuity and change capacity to keep pace.

→ Scale & evolution support

Regulated Industries

Your organisation operates in financial services, healthcare, or another regulated sector where CRM availability, data access controls, and audit trails must be actively managed and evidenced.

→ Compliance & availability assurance
Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the minimum contract length?
Our standard managed support agreements run for an initial 12-month term, which allows us to invest in deeply understanding your environment and provide consistent, high-quality service. We are happy to discuss shorter initial terms for organisations coming out of a difficult situation — please raise this during your discovery call.
What are your support hours and coverage?
Essential and Standard tiers provide business hours support (9am–5pm GMT, Monday–Friday, excluding UK public holidays), with an out-of-hours urgent escalation line on Standard. Enterprise includes 24/7 coverage for critical incidents, with a defined response SLA of 30 minutes at any hour. Routine work is delivered during business hours across all tiers.
How do the monthly change hours work?
Standard and Enterprise tiers include a monthly bank of consultant hours for configuration changes and minor enhancements. These hours reset monthly and cannot be rolled over, so we work with you at the start of each month to plan how to use them effectively. Hours are tracked transparently in your monthly report. Larger development work beyond the monthly allocation is scoped separately.
What counts as a "configuration change" vs. a development project?
Configuration changes within the monthly allowance include: field and form changes, views and dashboards, business rules, basic Power Automate flows, security role adjustments, and similar low-complexity work. Custom plugin development, PCF controls, complex integrations, or work requiring a solution deployment with UAT are scoped as separate development engagements. Your consultant will always advise you which category applies before starting work.
What happens when my named consultant is on leave?
We maintain a full knowledge base of your environment, so any cover consultant can pick up your tickets without needing to be briefed from scratch. Your named consultant will always introduce and brief their cover colleague before any planned absence, and your SLAs remain in full force at all times. You will always have a named escalation contact available.
Do you support all Dynamics 365 CRM modules?
Yes. Our consultants hold certifications and hands-on experience across all core CRM modules: Sales, Customer Service, Field Service, Marketing (Customer Insights - Journeys), and Customer Insights - Data. We also support Power Platform components (Power Automate, Power Apps, Power BI) and Azure integrations that form part of your CRM ecosystem.
Can we upgrade our tier as our needs grow?
Absolutely. You can upgrade your service tier at any point within your contract term, effective from the start of the next billing period. Downgrades are possible at the next contract renewal. We review your service tier with you at each annual renewal to ensure it continues to match your needs.
