Who has successfully deployed and configured Microsoft Cloud for Nonprofit solutions?
Good Day Praveen,
Deployment has been a bit of a S***show for us. We have spent countless hours with Microsoft Support and our "partner". Partners want up to $200K for deployment and integration of basic applications such as Fundraising and Engagement, Business Central accounting and Powerapps Portals. Support tickets tend to end with the agent saying they don't handle deployment only break-fix (ie: resolve errors).
That being said, we are working with a great support agent now and should have Fundraising and Engagement deployed in the next couple of days.
Bigger picture: I have recruited a group of twenty D365 volunteer consultants and advisors. We are working on a project to provide a roadmap for nonprofits to deploy and integrate Fundraising and Engagement, Business Central accounting, LinkedIn, MS Commerce, and Powerapps Portals.
I want to thank Microsoft for their generosity. However, they should work on streamlining the process of deployment and integration. Small nonprofits simply can't afford the time and expense needed to make this happen. It seems way more complicated that competitive offerings.
Any nonprofit that wants access to the solutions we develop should add me on LinkedIn and send me a message.
