The Cost Case

Why Businesses Are Leaving Microsoft Dynamics 365 and What They Save When They Do

Most businesses on Dynamics 365 pay their invoice every month without calculating what the full stack actually costs. Here is what a 10-person business pays in 2026.

Annual license saving for a 10-user business: $10,800 or more before implementation cost differences.That gap widens when you add Customer Service at $105 per user, Business Central at $80 per user, or Field Service at $105 per user to the Dynamics stack.
License Costs That Keep Rising
Microsoft raised Dynamics 365 prices 10 to 17% in October 2024, the first increase in five years. Its July 2026 update raised Microsoft 365 Business Basic and Business Standard by up to 17%. Zoho One pricing has not changed.
Implementation Costs Most SMBs Cannot Justify
Dynamics 365 implementations start at $25,000. Enterprise deployments routinely exceed $100,000. Zoho One migrations cost significantly less and complete in weeks rather than months.
Enterprise Pricing for Partial Use
Most small and midsize businesses use 30% of what Dynamics 365 offers and pay 100% of what it costs.

What We Do

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Migration Services: What Every Engagement Covers

From Microsoft CRM Data Migration to 90-Day Post-Launch Support

Most migration providers move data. They do not rebuild the processes that ran on the old system. Six months later the new platform underperforms because the configuration was built around a data transfer, not around how the business works. Every Matrix Connect Group migration covers six things.

01
Data Audit and Mapping
Every contact, account, opportunity, custom field, workflow rule, and automation in your Dynamics environment gets documented. This step sets the migration timeline and identifies what transfers directly and what needs rebuilding.
02
Zoho One Configuration
Before any data moves, Zoho One is configured around your specific workflows. Pipeline stages, custom modules, user roles, and cross-app data connections are built for how your business operates, not Zoho's out-of-the-box defaults.
03
Microsoft CRM Data Migration and Cleanup
Contacts, accounts, deals, service records, and financial history are cleaned, deduplicated, and migrated into Zoho One. Cleanup happens before the data moves, not after.
04
Workflow and Automation Rebuilding
Every automation running in Dynamics or Power Automate gets rebuilt in Zoho Flow and Zoho CRM. Rebuilt around how your business operates now, not copied from a setup that was never fully optimized.
05
Role-Specific Team Training
Sales trains on Zoho CRM. Finance trains on Zoho Books. Support trains on Zoho Desk. Each group gets what is relevant to their role, not a general platform overview that covers everything and helps nobody specifically.
06
Go-Live and 90-Day Post-Launch Support
The system goes live in phases. Each phase is tested before the next begins. Support continues for 90 days after launch because that is when real-world gaps surface.
Timeline
4 to 12 weeks for most small and midsize businesses.
vs Dynamics
Microsoft Dynamics implementations take 3 to 6 months on average.
No Downtime
Migration runs in phases so operations continue on Dynamics until each Zoho phase is ready.

Why Matrix Connect Group

Why Businesses Choosing a Microsoft Dynamics 365 Alternative Work With Matrix Connect Group

Three Things Most Migration Partners Do Not Bring

Automated data tools move records from Dynamics to Zoho in a few hours. What they leave you with is Zoho One configured to look like your old Dynamics setup. If the old setup was not working, the new one will not either.

Technology: Certified Zoho Partner
Every configuration is built around how your business actually operates. Not a migration template. A system designed for your specific workflows from day one.
Methodology: PMI-ACP and Agile Digest Partner
Adoption after migration is where most projects fail. Teams get a new system and keep working the old way. We address this before go-live through structured methodology training with our Agile Digest partnership.
Scale: SAFe Scrum Master
As your business grows after switching, the process framework grows with it. We build for where your business is going, not just where it is today.

“Most businesses that come to us from Dynamics are paying for a third of what they use. We configure Zoho One around what they actually do and they end up with a more capable system at a fraction of the cost.”Troy Mobley, Founder | Certified Zoho Partner | PMI-ACP | SAFe Scrum Master

What Clients Say About Working With Matrix Connect Group

"Before working with Matrix Connect Group, we were running our business across five different tools and still could not get a clean report out of any of them. After implementation our leadership team finally had reporting they could act on."

Maryland Business Owner

"Troy was accommodating through every change we asked for. The onboarding was smooth, the system was built around how we actually work, and three months in we are still finding automations that save us time we did not even know we were losing."

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Alternative: Questions Businesses Ask Before Switching

Matrix Connect Group provides Microsoft Dynamics 365 alternative implementation and CRM migration services for businesses across the United States. Based in Essex, Maryland. Contact us: 717.799.0427 | info@matrixconnectgroup.com | 602 Virginia Ave, Essex, MD 21221.

Zoho One is the most cost-effective Microsoft Dynamics 365 alternative for small and midsize businesses in 2026. At $37 per user per month it covers CRM, finance, HR, customer support, analytics, and marketing automation. Dynamics 365 Sales Enterprise alone costs $105 per user per month before Microsoft 365 licenses and implementation costs.

The most evaluated Microsoft Dynamics 365 alternatives in 2026 are Zoho One, Salesforce, HubSpot, and SAP Business One. For small and midsize businesses, Zoho One covers the broadest range of Dynamics functionality at the lowest total cost. Salesforce is comparable in cost and complexity to Dynamics. HubSpot covers CRM and marketing but lacks the finance and HR depth of either platform.

For small and midsize businesses, Zoho One covers every major Dynamics 365 function including CRM, customer service, finance, HR, field service, project management, and analytics. Both platforms rate 4.4 out of 5 on Gartner Peer Insights. Dynamics 365 has deeper capability for large enterprises with complex manufacturing or multi-entity finance requirements.

Zoho One at $37 per user per month is the most affordable Microsoft Dynamics alternative covering equivalent business functionality. For a 10-user business, Zoho One costs $4,440 per year in licenses compared to $15,240 or more for equivalent Dynamics 365 modules before Microsoft 365 subscriptions and implementation.

A complete Microsoft Dynamics 365 migration service covers data audit and mapping, Zoho One configuration, Microsoft CRM data migration and cleanup, workflow and automation rebuilding, role-specific team training, and 90-day post-launch support. Matrix Connect Group provides all six phases as a single engagement for businesses across the United States.

A standard Microsoft Dynamics to Zoho One migration takes 4 to 12 weeks depending on the number of modules in use, data complexity, and custom integrations. Matrix Connect Group provides a detailed timeline after the free migration assessment.

Migration cost depends on the number of Dynamics modules being replaced, data volume and complexity, and the level of custom workflow rebuilding required. Matrix Connect Group provides a detailed cost estimate after the free migration assessment once we understand your specific environment. The assessment is free and carries no commitment.

Migrating from Microsoft Dynamics to Zoho One involves four steps: auditing and mapping your existing Dynamics data, configuring Zoho One around your business workflows, migrating and cleaning your data into the new system, and rebuilding automations in Zoho. Matrix Connect Group manages every step for businesses across the United States. Call 717.799.0427 to start with a free assessment.

Yes. Matrix Connect Group is headquartered in Essex, Maryland and provides Microsoft Dynamics 365 migration services for businesses across the entire United States. All phases including audit, configuration, data migration, training, and support are delivered remotely.

The Migration Takes 4 to 12 Weeks. The Assessment Takes 30 Minutes. The Assessment Is Free.

If you are on Dynamics 365 and the cost, the complexity, or both have become a problem, the free assessment tells you three things:

No proposal before we understand your situation. No pitch before we understand your business.
