Certified for Microsoft Dynamics®
Customer Evidences

The purpose of customer evidences is to grow trust in your solution among customer prospects, showing that your solution has already been used and recommended by others.

CfMD Requirement: Your solution needs to have 10 customer evidences for ERP and 8 for CRM solutions to fulfill the Certified for Microsoft Dynamics (CfMD) requirements. The 10 ERP CfMD evidences need to come from at least 6 unique customer installations (i.e. 6 different installations, with references provided by 6 different people). The 8 CRM evidences need to come from at least 4 unique customer installations (i.e. 4 different installations with references coming from 4 different people). You have several choices to fulfill this requirement (see table below). You can get more than one evidence from the same customer if you use different evidence types, as long as they come from the minimum number of installations. For example, you can get a Public Microsoft Reference and a Confidential Reference from the same customer. Or you can get a Confidential Reference and a Case Study from the same customer. Fewer than the required valid customer evidences mean that the solution cannot pass the Certified for Microsoft Dynamics validation.
