Most Dynamics professionals already are aware of the XrmToolBox, but for anyone not familiar, or who haven't used it in a while, this week we cover some of our favorite tools in the toolbox and a reminder that for your tedious tasks, there's probably a tool for it! Visit www.dynamicshotdish.com for more information!

This week we get into a topic that some of us feel very strongly about - running projects in an agile or waterfall fashion. We include the importance of being on the same page with the entire team (customers and consultants) and some pitfalls of agile even when everybody thinks that's what they want.

This week we go over Power Automate as it relates to Dynamics 365 and debate when it's appropriate to build processes there instead of the classic workflow engine. Check out show notes on www.dynamicshotdish.com.
