“Today’s retail landscape demands that companies become more responsive and connected. At Trespass, we recognise the need to constantly evolve to optimise our operations and deliver memorable, frictionless buying experiences,
The integration of Dynamics 365 will unify our systems into a single, comprehensive cloud-based platform, providing a singular source of truth. This will enable us to execute tasks more efficiently, take a more dynamic approach to innovation, and further enhance our already leading customer value proposition.”
Denise continues, "Dynamics 365 is Microsoft’s next-generation business application suite, built to leverage the power of the Microsoft Cloud, Office 365 (now Microsoft 365), the Power Platform, and Microsoft’s advanced intelligence tools.
“Moving our IT infrastructure to the cloud has been a game-changer for us,” Denise added. “The benefits are evident, not just in terms of speed but the resiliency and peace of mind it offers. It aligns perfectly with our vision of a more agile and efficient organisation.”
Dynamics 365 uniquely provides the scalability and flexibility we need, and working with HSO on this project has been a truly positive experience.
Their knowledge and guidance have proven instrumental. The right mix of encouragement and challenging our assumptions have paved the way for a successful collaboration and I’m excited for what comes next.
