Microsoft’s unwavering commitment to innovation and excellence in digital transformation has once again been recognised by Gartner in its 2024 Magic Quadrant evaluations.
Earning leadership positions across three critical categories, Sales Force Automation, Analytics and Business Intelligence Platforms, and B2B Marketing Automation Platforms, Microsoft has cemented its role as a trusted technology partner for organisations around the globe.
These achievements are a clear reflection of Microsoft’s dedication to developing integrated, AI-powered tools that empower businesses to operate more efficiently, engage more meaningfully, and grow sustainably.
As a Microsoft partner, Avrion brings these capabilities directly to our customers, helping to translate cutting-edge technology into real business outcomes.
Sales Force Automation – Dynamics 365 Sales
For the fourteenth consecutive year, Microsoft has been named a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Sales Force Automation Platforms. This sustained recognition underlines the maturity and effectiveness of Dynamics 365 Sales in helping businesses to streamline their sales processes, strengthen customer relationships, and increase revenue generation.
Dynamics 365 Sales stands out due to its deep integration of AI-powered insights and automation. Sales teams benefit from intelligent lead scoring, personalised engagement recommendations, and predictive forecasting, all of which support better decision-making and more productive interactions.
The platform also provides seamless collaboration tools that enable sales professionals to work more closely with other departments, ensuring a consistent and cohesive customer experience.
By adopting Dynamics 365 Sales, organisations can build a more agile and responsive sales function, one that is equipped to identify opportunities, reduce friction in the sales cycle, and drive long-term growth.
Analytics and Business Intelligence – Power BI
In the ever-evolving world of data and analytics, Microsoft has once again demonstrated its dominance, achieving its seventeenth consecutive year as a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Analytics and Business Intelligence Platforms. At the heart of this achievement is Power BI, a tool that has matured into a comprehensive, enterprise-grade analytics solution capable of transforming how organisations understand and use data.
More recently, Power BI has evolved as part of Microsoft Fabric, a broader analytics platform that unifies data professionals across disciplines.
With Fabric, data engineers, analysts, and business users can collaborate within the same environment, streamlining the end-to-end data journey, from ingestion and transformation to visualisation and actionable insights.
One of the standout features of this transformation is the integration of generative AI through Copilot. This functionality enables users to create reports, generate summaries, and explore data using natural language prompts, dramatically lowering the barriers to entry for non-technical users and increasing productivity for experienced analysts.
Through Power BI and Microsoft Fabric, businesses gain the tools to break down data silos, accelerate insight generation, and make more confident, data-led decisions across all levels of the organisation.
B2B Marketing Automation: Dynamics 365 Customer Insights
Microsoft’s leadership in the field of marketing automation has also been recognised with Dynamics 365 Customer Insights named as a Leader in the 2024 Gartner Magic Quadrant for B2B Marketing Automation Platforms. This recognition reflects the platform’s ability to unify customer data, enable personalised experiences, and deliver measurable results across the entire marketing lifecycle.
Dynamics 365 Customer Insights allows marketers to bring together data from multiple sources to create rich, unified customer profiles.
With AI and machine learning capabilities built in, businesses can anticipate customer behaviour, identify emerging trends, and optimise campaigns for better engagement. The platform also supports real-time segmentation and targeting, giving teams the flexibility to adapt quickly and deliver timely, relevant content to the right audiences.
The integration with other Microsoft products, such as Dynamics 365 Marketing, Power BI, and Azure, further enhances its capabilities, making it a powerful choice for businesses looking to deepen customer relationships and improve return on marketing investment.
