Member Portal in Dynamics 365

Member Portal in Dynamics 365 provides a centralized platform for members to access and manage their company information, administrators’ and users’ details, resources, and activities. It enables members to log in securely, track their membership status, request assistance, renew memberships, and pay membership fees. The member portal is highly customizable to match the branding and messaging of the organization. The portal provides visibility and access to a range of services, such as managing complaints/cases, online content, managing member admins and users, surveys, and membership communication tools. Members can access the portal on their phone.

Member Portal Use Case

Ombudsman and any other regulatory bodies who resolve disputes between service providers of electricity, gas, and water, and consumers. A member can see all complaints consumers lodged against it and initiate the resolution process right away. However, the Member portal can be enhanced to accommodate the customer portal on the same platform to allow consumers to lodge their complaints online, saving costs and making case resolution faster.
