Progress over perfection – the debate every Dynamics 365 consultant and developer knows too well.

In this episode of D365 Shot First, Cam Dry and Charlie Rodgers dive into why chasing perfection can stall delivery – and how small, incremental progress is often the smarter route in both Business Central and Customer Engagement projects.

From real-world developer styles and deployment pipelines, to how workshops actually shape client systems, they share what works, what doesn’t, and how different approaches can affect outcomes.

We also explore how to balance scope creep, value for money, and the ever-present tension between technical consultants and project managers when “perfect” comes at a price.

🔥What you’ll learn in this episode:

- Why “progress is best” in Dynamics 365 projects

- The difference between dev styles: fast + exact vs exploratory + adaptive

- Real-life examples from Business Central and CE projects

- How automated pipelines vs manual config change delivery

- The role of agile vs waterfall in ERP & CRM implementations

- Why UAT looks different for managers vs end-users

- The ROI question: when is “nice-to-have” really worth it?

- Why incremental workshops create better client buy-in

Whether you’re in Business Central, CE, or Power Platform, this episode will help you rethink how you balance speed, quality, and value in project delivery.
