Microsoft Announces next version of CRM, code-named "Titan"

Microsoft officially announced the preview of the next version of Microsoft Dynamics CRM with a press release on their site today.  This preview is available to select partners via the company's Technology Adoption Program (TAP):

“The partner TAP program for ‘Titan’ is another milestone in our strategy to deliver the power of choice to customers,” said Brad Wilson, general manager of Microsoft Dynamics CRM. “Our partners are getting an in-depth look at the power and flexibility of the upcoming release, as well as the terrific upgrade path that it will provide to current customers. With early access to the new release, our partners can develop common offerings that span the deployment options: on-premise, partner-hosted or Microsoft Dynamics Live CRM.”

AdvantageWorks was selected from a large group of potential candidates to be part of the 75-partner early TAP program.  According to the press release this program will expand to 300 partners in Q1 and then to over 1,000 partners in Q2.  Through this program Microsoft is not only improving their product, but ensuring their partner community is able to deliver on this new platform when it is released later this year.  While we are not able to disclose any details regarding the next version at this time, we are able to say we are excited by what the future brings.
