You might not think about the work that goes on behind the scenes when you book a holiday but, for Apollo, one of the Nordic region’s leading tour operators, it’s a big deal.

Where once employees had to painstakingly input data into company systems manually, Apollo’s decision to move their existing CRM system to Dynamics 365 has unlocked a world of business innovation and productivity gains. From freeing staff of time-consuming tasks, to better serving customers and reducing ongoing costs, Apollo is taking advantage of a modern way of working and exploring exciting new opportunities with data and AI… all thanks to the cloud.

We reduced our manual processes by 95% without writing a single line of code and with absolutely zero monetary investment.
