1. Stay in Your Flow with Direct CRM Access
No more switching between windows to find customer details. Copilot for Sales lets you view and update your Dynamics 365 Sales data directly within Outlook and Teams.
You can see key information related to a contact or opportunity, add a new lead from an email, or update a record without ever leaving your inbox. This seamless integration keeps data current and ensures that follow-ups happen faster.
Copilot can even detect missing contacts in your CRM and suggest creating a record using the information found in an email, a simple and effortless way to keep your database clean and complete.
2. Collaborate More Effectively Across Your Team
Sales success depends on collaboration. With Copilot for Sales, sharing CRM insights is easy, whether you are in a Teams chat or replying to an email.
You can copy a customer or opportunity record from Outlook and insert it into a conversation, where Copilot automatically displays an enriched summary card with key data. This ensures everyone has access to the same up-to-date information, reducing errors and helping your team make faster, more informed decisions.
3. Save Time on Follow-Ups and Email Writing
Between long email threads, meeting summaries, and personalized follow-ups, communication can quickly eat up your day.
Copilot for Sales takes care of these time-consuming tasks by automatically summarizing emails and drafting ready-to-send replies based on context and your Dynamics 365 Sales data.
It can also generate follow-up emails after a Teams meeting, pulling in conversation details and action items.
Summarize complex threads, draft a reply, or prepare a follow-up in just seconds, directly from Outlook. The result is faster, more personalized communications that stay consistent with your CRM data.
4. Prepare and Lead Meetings with AI-Powered Insights
Copilot for Sales helps your team show up to every meeting prepared. Before a call or meeting, sales reps can access an opportunity summary that highlights key stakeholders, business context, and priorities.
During the meeting, Copilot captures important moments, notes decisions, and tracks action items. Once it is over, it automatically generates a clear, structured summary that is accessible in both Teams and Outlook.
This conversational intelligence means your team can focus on the client relationship instead of note-taking, while Copilot turns every interaction into actionable insight. All meeting details are centralized in Dynamics 365 Sales, ensuring smooth handoffs and better communication across your team.
5. Centralize Your Sales Efforts in Dedicated Collaboration Spaces
Copilot for Sales also integrates with Microsoft Teams to provide ready-to-use collaboration spaces. Templates like Account Teams and Deal Rooms bring together your conversations, files, apps, and CRM data in one place.
These structured workspaces make it easier for sales reps, managers, and subject-matter experts to work together while keeping a clear view of every account and opportunity.
Your sales environment becomes a truly connected and intelligent workspace powered by AI and Dynamics 365 Sales data.
Microsoft 365 Copilot for Sales does more than automate administrative work. It redefines how sales teams engage with clients.
By giving your team access to the right information at the right time, directly in the tools they already use, Copilot enables them to focus on what matters most: building meaningful relationships and driving results.
When combined with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales, it creates a smarter, more connected CRM experience. Copilot streamlines follow-ups and meeting prep, while Dynamics 365 Sales centralizes all your customer and opportunity data. Together, they provide a unified environment where every interaction, email, and meeting contributes to a richer, more proactive customer view.
