Ryan Pollyniak

Business Development Manager

Introducing Ryan, a seasoned sales professional with a rich background in the Microsoft Dynamics space. Before joining Western Computer in 2015, Ryan spent significant time with an ISV (add-on solution) in the Microsoft Dynamics ecosystem, working closely with partners to sell products to companies using Microsoft Dynamics. Catering to medium to enterprise-sized businesses, Ryan is well-versed in ERP and CRM strategies and heavily involved in the Microsoft Dynamics Channel.
Ryan brings a unique blend of experience and expertise to the table. With over 8 years with an ISV partner and an additional 8 years with Western Computer, he possesses in-depth knowledge of the Microsoft deck and all Dynamics applications. What sets Ryan apart is his ability to approach ERP and CRM projects as a guide, emphasizing a simple and effective strategy. He values an open mind, providing multiple perspectives and solutions, and is willing to walk away if a solution isn't the best fit, all while maintaining an approachable demeanor and a commitment to listening to customers.
In the industry, Ryan holds a unique perspective. He believes in hiring experienced consultants for their ability to drive quality and efficiency. Preferring out-of-the-box solutions over custom development, he advocates for staying in one's lane and turning away business that doesn't align with core principles. Ryan is optimistic about the future impact of AI and believes that Dynamics has a leg up on the competition due to the industry-leading technology foundation provided by Microsoft.
Ryan's expertise extends beyond Dynamics 365. He is an expert in strategizing upgrades to the cloud within the Dynamics framework and actively contributes to content creation on LinkedIn, Western Computer, and industry-related topics.
