Custom Module Support:<\/h3>\n<p>Not only custom modules, but our Dynamics CRM customer portal also supports all the default modules as well so that you can share the right information with your customers.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Case Deflection:<\/h3>\n<p>This feature helps portal users to get probable solutions before generating a case. When a portal user can\u2019t find solutions related to any queries or issues, they will be able to navigate to add a case option. Using the search bar they can simply search for their issue and if it is not found they can easily add their case.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Role-based Accessibility:<\/h3>\n<p>You can create accessibility-based user groups and add contacts to assign specific roles. A Portal User can have access only to the modules that are assigned to them in that specific group. Admin can create multiple groups and add contacts to them.<\/p>\n<h3>About Us<\/h3>\n<p>CRMJetty is a hub of innovative customer relationship solutions.
