Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online is a great solution for small businesses because you don't need to worry about the server infrastructure or purchasing server software licenses. But what if you need fewer than the minimum five users for Dynamics CRM Online? Microsoft publishes a list of three options for small businesses to track their sales activities: http://community.dynamics.com/crm/b/xrm/archive/2014/04/21/microsoft-crm-options-for-small-businesses.aspx One of them is Hosted Microsoft Dynamics CRM : a cloud-based CRM solution from xRM , a Microsoft partner that specializes in CRM and private cloud solutions. Hosted Microsoft Dynamics CRM is priced at the same monthly subscription rates as Dynamics CRM Online but does not have a minimum number of users. It requires an initial setup fee of $50 in addition to the monthly subscriptions.
