From May 2020, Microsoft will enable system-controlled, automatic updates for the CRM solution Dynamics 365 Marketing. This will create a consistent and manageable update process and reduce the planning and testing time required to introduce further updates.
Microsoft describes the scope and timing of the automatic updates as follows:
- New updates for Dynamics 365 Marketing are released approximately once a month, hotfixes more frequently if required. The monthly updates contain patches to fix problems and may include minor functional, reliability, and performance improvements.
- For important updates, Dynamics 365 Marketing follows the approach of other Dynamics 365 applications. Updates are tested to ensure that upgrades are successful, while ensuring that no changes are delivered that affect functionality.
- Microsoft will provide two major updates per year to Dynamics 365 Marketing in April and October. These updates will provide new capabilities and functionality. The major new features will be previewed and activated prior to the delivery period so that you can validate important updates in a sandbox environment.
- Automatic updates will be performed with minimal service interruption during periods of low traffic for the geographic region where hosting is located.
