Microsoft recently announced some updates to the next version of Microsoft Dynamics CRM. I was expecting the next version to be “5.0” but Microsoft seems to like to change naming formats of their products occasionally. So now it’s officially Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011. 

Here’s a press pass with more detail on Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011

The most recent updates include:

• Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 Online will be launched by the end of 2010
• CRM Online will be available in 40 markets and 41 languages by the end of 2010
• Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 On-Premise will be launched early 2011
• An updated video overview of Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 is now available
• Microsoft will be launching Microsoft Dynamics Marketplace in September 2010
• Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 Public Beta will be available in September 2010
