“A Practical Approach to Efficient Data Management”

In the evolving landscape of digital transformation, effective data management is paramount for organizations seeking to optimize their operations and reduce costs. Microsoft Dynamics 365 is a powerful tool that supports various business functions; however, its file storage capacity can quickly be overwhelmed by the accumulation of emails and attachments.

The Challenge of Overcapacity

Organizations using Microsoft Dynamics 365 often find their Dataverse File Storage over capacity by approximately 50-70% due to years of accumulated emails and attachments. This overcapacity not only incurs higher storage costs but also risks affecting system performance. The need for a sustainable and cost-effective storage solution becomes evident as businesses strive to maintain smooth operations without incurring unnecessary expenses.

Introducing the Attachment Parsing Tool

The Attachment Parsing Tool is specifically designed to address these challenges by facilitating the seamless transfer of Notes and Email attachments from Dataverse to SharePoint. This innovative tool operates in the background, ensuring that the extraction process does not disrupt daily business activities or affect performance. Users continue to enjoy a seamless and transparent experience, accessing their attachments and Notes with ease by simply clicking on the SharePoint link.

Key Features

Here are the standout features of the app.

Seamless User Experience

One of the standout features of the Attachment Parsing Tool is its ability to operate unnoticed in the background. The extraction process is fully transparent, ensuring that users do not experience any disruption when accessing their files. Upon clicking the link, files open effortlessly in a new tab, enhancing user convenience. Furthermore, this feature promotes collaboration among users, allowing them to share files with internal colleagues outside of Dynamics 365, thus eliminating the need for additional licensing.

Cost Savings

By moving Dynamics 365 Emails and Notes attachments to SharePoint, organizations can free up significant space in their Microsoft Dynamics 365 Dataverse file storage. SharePoint, which comes standard with 1TB of storage, offers a cost-effective alternative, with excess storage being 15 times cheaper than Dynamics 365 file storage. This substantial cost reduction can be a game-changer for businesses looking to optimize their budgets.

Maximized Adaptability

The Attachment Parsing Tool is highly adaptable, allowing attachment parsing to be executed on individual emails or applied to both new and historical files. This flexibility enables organizations to tailor their data management strategies to their specific needs, ensuring that both current and legacy data are efficiently managed.

Enhanced Security

In addition to its core functionalities, the Attachment Parsing Tool offers an extra layer of security by enabling the restriction of read and write access to files. This feature can be easily implemented by a SharePoint administrator, ensuring that sensitive information remains well-protected. Organizations can thus maintain high standards of data security while enjoying the benefits of an optimized storage solution.

Implementation and Customization

The Attachment Parsing Tool can be customized to conduct a bulk update on existing Email and Note attachments as part of the initial implementation. This capability has proven invaluable for organizations, with some successfully transferring hundreds of thousands of attachments accumulated over the years. This not only dramatically reduces their storage capacity but also streamlines their data management processes.

Summary

The Auto Moving Dynamics 365 Attachments to SharePoint solution, available on Microsoft AppSource, represents a significant advancement in data management for organizations using Microsoft Dynamics 365. By addressing the challenges of overcapacity and high storage costs, this tool provides a practical and cost-effective solution that enhances user experience, promotes collaboration, and ensures data security.
