This page contains information about the terminology related to Power Platform. Products and services tend to get re-branded and the purpose of this page is to get a quick overview of the current terminology for the features and services from Microsoft related to Power Platform.

Terminology changes within Dataverse. What we once knew as Entity, Field, Record, Option Set and Two Option are now Table, Column, Row, Choice and Yes/No. Terminology updates

The CRM functionality from Microsoft

First there were CRM, Microsoft Dynamics CRM. Then came Dynamics 365 CE. Then came Power Apps and the former Microsoft Dynamics CRM/365 became (model-driven) apps, built on Power Platform. Now we have apps built on the Power Platform, e.g. Dynamics 365 Sales, Dynamics 365 Customer Service etc. The on-premise version still goes under the name Dynamics 365 CE.
