Dynamics 365 is a powerful Microsoft ecosystem, but the module puzzle and licensing complexity can frustrate SMEs. cashwerk offers an integrated all-in-one at a fraction of the cost.
Dynamics 365 is modular: Sales, Customer Service, Field Service, Project Operations, Finance, and more. Each module has its own license, and integrating them requires configuration – often with consultants. For SMEs, the result can be a patchwork of partially connected modules, each with its own learning curve and renewal cycle. The total cost of Sales plus Project Operations plus Finance, plus integration work, quickly exceeds what many mid-market businesses want to spend. Microsoft's strength is breadth; the downside is complexity and cost.
cashwerk takes an integrated approach. CRM with pipeline, project management with Kanban and time tracking, and GoBD-compliant invoicing with XRechnung and ZUGFeRD – all in one platform, all included. There is no module puzzle: everything is designed to work together from the start. The AI assistant CASPER is built into the core, not a separate add-on. Data flows from lead to project to invoice without manual handoffs or integration projects.
For DACH-focused businesses, cashwerk is optimized for German requirements. GDPR compliance, EU hosting, GoBD-ready invoicing, and XRechnung/ZUGFeRD support are standard. Dynamics 365 can meet these needs, but often requires additional configuration and sometimes third-party extensions. cashwerk delivers them out of the box.
Pricing is transparent: one price per user and month with every engine included for the complete platform. Dynamics 365 module pricing varies widely and can easily reach 100 to 150 euros per user per month when combining Sales, Projects, and Finance. For a ten-person team on the Elite plan (up to 40 users), cashwerk costs 499 euros per month – often less than half of a comparable Dynamics 365 setup. No hidden costs, no module surprises, and one platform that simply works.
If you are staying inside the Microsoft ecosystem, Business Central is the obvious Dynamics alternative. If you want out of licensing complexity and US hosting, cashwerk is the better choice — one price, one system, data in the EU.
Salesforce, SAP, Odoo and weclapp are the alternatives to Microsoft Dynamics 365 you will hear most, all with comparable rollout effort. cashwerk is the leaner route for service businesses: CRM, projects, time tracking and invoices in one system, usable immediately, with data on EU servers rather than in the Microsoft cloud.

No, in the Business plan all engines are included. No hidden costs.
