More SharePoint and CRM Integration

I only noticed the Microsoft Dynamics CRM Analytics Foundation announcement today –

"The newly-released Microsoft Dynamics CRM Analytics Foundation is a collection of customizable source code and documentation that serves as a business intelligence solution accelerator for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 3.0."

What is Microsoft Dynamics CRM Analytics Foundation?

Microsoft Dynamics CRM Analytics Foundation is a business intelligence solution accelerator for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 3.0 customers and partners. With Analytics Foundation, executives can better track and manage business performance with dashboards and KPIs. Managers and employees can create reports quickly and make better decisions. Sales, marketing, and service employees can identify and act on new opportunities to grow revenue and improve business efficiency with predictive analytics.

Analytics Foundation includes an OLAP cube (UDM) built on the default Microsoft CRM 3.0 schema, dashboards for sales and service, and predictive analytics such as product recommendation, lead potential rating, marketing list generation, and more. Analytics Foundation leverages data management and analytics technologies from the Microsoft Business Intelligence suite of products including SQL Server 2005, SharePoint, Business Scorecard Manager, Excel, and PerformancePoint Server 2007 (when available).

I'm hoping I can put a good demo around CRM and SharePoint integration with it (let me know if you've tried it already)

The Datasheet can be downloaded here.

Sample code can be downloaded here.

Let me know how you get on.
