ON Thursday 19th July 2012, Microsoft took another step towards the convergence of our CRM Online and Office 365 cloud services. Anyone signing up for a CRM Online 30 day trial, will now automatically be set up on the Microsoft Online Service Portal (MOSP) administration, billing & provisioning platform that is used by Office 365. This is great news since new customers no longer have to worry about how they manage Windows Live IDs for each of their users. It also means it is really easy to set up both credit card and invoice billing when upgrading from a trial to a full subscription.
