Deals and forecasting in 2025: every update, in order

Forecasting got most of the attention in 2025: a combined net forecast, Microsoft Dynamics support, line-item forecasts and split credit for team-sold deals. Then in August, Deal Agent arrived to keep opportunity fields up to date from your calls. Here are all 21 updates.
