What is MS Dynamics CRM Plug-in Development? The Microsoft Dynamics CRM plug-in development supports and extends the existing platform through the use of customized plug-ins. While they are similar to the call-outs of previous MS Dynamics versions, plug-ins provide for a richer run-time environment and contain advanced capabilities. These plug-ins can greatly extend the functionality of your MS Dynamics CRM system, providing a set of features that is tailored directly to your business’s needs. Plug-Ins Versus Call-Outs Clarity Ventures has extensive experience working with MS Dynamics, and with developing and integrating plug-ins that will maximize your business’s success. Plug-ins have replaced the call-outs of previous versions of MS Dynamics, in response to a customer base that requires access to more run-time information in the plug-in code. Since Microsoft Dynamics CRM is backwards compatible with the call-outs, you will not have to throw away your call-outs and develop new plug-ins. Instead, you can take advantage of the features and functionality of both. A few of the major difference between plug-ins and call-outs include faster, more dynamic plug-in registration; the amount of information that is transferred to the plug-in at run time; and the option of executing the plug-in either synchronously or asynchronously. Plug-In Registration Perhaps the most major difference between MS Dynamics plug-ins and MS Dynamics call-outs is the registration process. The call-out registration model was based on a single file, which means if the file became corrupted, no call-outs would run. Plug-ins, on the other hand, are registered within the CRM database, which means that one damaged plug-in will not affect any of the others. Plug-ins can also be tested more easily, to ensure usability and maximum functionality.
