Previously, we introduced you to Nimble as “The Simple CRM for Office 365” to help unify your disparate contacts, emails, and calendar activities into a team relationship manager with simple sales and marketing.
For individuals and teams of 2 to 25, Nimble is a perfect way to get started with contact management and social sales and marketing with Office 365. For larger teams, Microsoft Dynamics is an excellent solution that addresses more complex needs. As your company grows, Nimble can grow with you by adding value to Dynamics contacts.
In this post, we’ll show you the benefits of using Nimble with Microsoft Dynamics to enrich your contact records automatically with social business insights; combine Dynamics contacts into a single system of record you can access anywhere, and to also bring your team’s Office 365 contacts into Dynamics. Once you bring your team contacts into Dynamics, you can continue building relationships within your MS Dynamics workflow.
Dynamics is a comprehensive and intuitive customer relationship management application; paired with Nimble, MS Dynamics contacts are enriched automatically and become easily accessible wherever you work.

Nimble is the simple, smart CRM built for Office 365 that works for you everywhere you engage: inside Office 365, Outlook inbox, on social media channels, in your web browser, in 140+ SaaS business applications (including Skype and Teams), and on your mobile device. It also works back inside all of the team’s separate apps, bringing Office 365 contacts into Dynamics and everywhere else your team works.
Nimble combines your team’s contacts, communication history, sales opportunities, activities, and events into one unified relationship manager. It enriches records automatically with the social and business insights you need to take action and keeps itself up-to-date so you can focus on building better relationships.
With the Nimble Smart Contacts App (available for Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge), you can learn more about your contact’s work history, interest, influential topics, recent social interactions, and much more.
By integrating Nimble and Office 365 through PieSync, Nimble can either be your simple CRM on top of your existing Office 365 workflows, or work in conjunction with Dynamics to give your team the intelligence and tools they need to ensure every person engaging customers and prospects has access to the same relationship intelligence.
