Data management plays an important role in every organization. Every day, there is a significant amount of data generated in your CRM in the form of Notes, Email, their attachments, etc. Therefore, it becomes necessary to establish a methodical process for managing this ever-increasing mound of digital data in your CRM.
For this, you can find quite a number of data/document management apps in the market. Among them, Attach2Dynamics – a 5-Start-rated Solution on Microsoft AppSource – is a quite popular document management app that provides seamless document and storage management in multiple cloud storages like SharePoint, Dropbox, and Azure Blob Storage from within Dynamics 365 CRM.
So, how do you benefit from using Attach2Dynamics? Let’s find out.
Easy Integration with Multiple Cloud Storages:
Attach2Dynamics is a quite handy app for freeing space in your Dynamics 365 CRM environment. It gives you provision to store documents/attachments in multiple cloud storage like SharePoint, Dropbox, and Azure Blob Storage. Further, you can create multiple instances for each of your cloud connectors like SharePoint_1, SharePoint_2, Dropbox_1, Dropbox_2, etc., which effectively helps you to organize documents and free CRM space.
Seamless Document/Attachment Management within CRM:
You can accomplish a wide range of actions on files/folders stored in the cloud from within Dynamics 365 CRM by using the user-friendly interface of Attach2Dynamics. These actions include drag & drop ability, uploading and downloading files/folders to/from the cloud, creating new folders, renaming files/folders, viewing or deleting files, creating anonymous links of files, emailing files as attachments, and much more. This app also allows you to upload and manage up to 1.5 GB of attachments. With the ease of performing so many actions from within Dynamics 365 CRM, you can efficiently and effectively manage documents/attachments and improve your productivity.
Easily Copy/Move Notes/Email/Sales Literature Attachments in CRM:
With Attach2Dynamics, you will be able to move or copy attachments related to a particular Entity to SharePoint, Dropbox or Azure Blob Storage. Once you configure to move attachments for ‘Email’ entity, then whenever you send/receive emails, the attachments will be automatically moved to the respective folders in cloud storage and a link to the location will be left in its place for your reference. Similarly, you can enable entity configuration to copy/move Notes and Sales Literature Attachments.
Bulk Migration of History Data:
Migrating history data in bulk is a cakewalk with Attach2Dynamics. The history data, which includes Notes, emails, and Sales Literature Attachments, can be moved from Dynamics 365 CRM to SharePoint, Dropbox, and Azure Blob Storage without interrupting your day-to-day activities. You can schedule the data migration process and specify which data is to be moved to the cloud. Once the process is completed, you will get a detailed report on the amount of data transferred, the space cleared, failure in migration if any, and so on.
Everyone in the organization cannot be given equal access to important documents stored in the cloud. This goes against security norms, which is non-negotiable. So, to counter such situations, you can make use of the ‘Security Templates’ feature of attach2Dynamics. With this, you can restrict the users to perform only those actions (Upload, Download, Email, Copy Link, Delete, etc. for which they are given permissions. So, if you want to restrict any user from viewing, downloading, or deleting files and folders from cloud, then you have to simply configure a Security Template disabling those permissions for that user.

Now, you can quickly drag and drop emails and their attachments from Outlook to cloud storage without any extra steps. With Attach2Dynamics inside Outlook, storing important files in the cloud is simple and hassle-free. No need to switch between apps—just move your files directly while working in Outlook.
