Frequently Asked Questions
Preact deploys and supports applications built within Dynamics 365. Preact also provides our own Charity Hub product. This is built on the same Microsoft cloud platform as Dynamics to offer the same high-quality interface and common data storage. But, Charity Hub runs on a Power Apps license. So it is available at a lower price per user/month in comparison to Dynamics 365, with added discounts for nonprofit organisations.
We understand an NPO (Non Profit Organisation), such as a small charity, needs all the help it can get. Preact and Microsoft offer a reduced rate for charities that qualify. The current pricing includes:
Dynamics 365 Sales Enterprise or Customer Service Enterprise licences for £17.90. D365 Customer Service Professional for £9.40. D365 Sales Professional for £12.30.
All prices quoted are per user/month, excluding VAT. Information about Microsoft's charity eligibility criteria and the process is shown here.
Charities can connect data and modernise processes to improve operational efficiency and reporting. This provides charities with a scalable platform to help them be more responsive to the needs of their beneficiaries. By unifying membership data, our systems help teams segment supporters. This allows message personalisation to announce events, promote fundraising activities and provide updates.
To improve an existing Dynamics 365 system, Preact helps charities install a range of solutions. Frequent examples include self-service web portals, feedback surveys and case management tools. Other examples include systems for applications, marketing automation, reporting, membership renewal and more. We can also integrate tools for event management and volunteer management. If you already use Dynamics, we undertake a system take-on consultancy to identify improvements. The improvements are implemented by our Elevate 365 managed service. This provides continued support throughout our relationship.
