As a part of Microsoft Dynamics CRM’s expanding integration story, we are announcing the release of the Microsoft CRM Solution Accelerator for Siebel. Targeted towards current customers of Siebel systems, this accelerator is a pre-built integration solution that can be used to synchronize the data between Microsoft CRM and Siebel. The integration solution comes with predefined integration for contact, account, and address entities and can be customized to integrate other custom entities and fields.
