Microsoft partner aims Dynamics at SAP, Oracle
Microsoft partner aims Dynamics at SAP, Oracle: "Microsoft calls Dynamics AX a composite application, because it uses Web services to connect data from multiple sources. The latest version adds the ability to integrate radio frequency identification capabilities. It also allows end users to incorporate Really Simple Syndication (RSS) feeds around specific corporate data.
Microsoft's melding of Office functionality into the core ERP processes is far more extensive then the Microsoft-SAP Duet software, which incorporates some SAP capabilities into Microsoft Outlook, said Paul Hamerman, vice president of enterprise applications, Forrester Research Inc. Hamerman said functionality will grow with Duet, however Microsoft has taken a more extensive approach with its Dynamics suite. "
