FAQS
What are integrations?
Integrations are used to connect two systems together. Syncing your data across your platforms allows you to have accurate information and make stronger business decisions. This is great for scaling businesses and those who use multiple tools and technology throughout their processes.
Why use integrations?
Not only do integrations connect your systems, but they allow you to keep the system you’re currently using by simply adding connections to third-party applications. This enhances system functionality and provides additional features you may need but aren’t able to build within your software. Integrations also solve and simplify your need for new software as your business grows and evolves.
How do integrations work?
Integrations connect two systems together, mostly from using an API. An API (application programming interface) is an interface that software programs use to receive information. By building integrations on APIs, you can connect your integrations to your software and use them in tandem with one another. The integration allows for the flow of information to and from apps and devices in real time — APIs allow them to talk to one another.
Who needs integrations?
Small, medium or large sized businesses with various technology platforms should consider integrating their systems as it becomes easier to manage and grow when all operations are aligned. Effective use of integrations can lead to increased revenue, saved time, better insights, clean data, aligned operations and connectivity across global locations. 
When should you use integrations?
When you have multiple technology platforms you should consider whether those tools can connect with each other to enhance the overall performance of your operations. Having a single source of truth through a CRM platform can be one of the easiest way to start building your tech stack. 
How do you implement integrations?
You will need to look at which integrations are available for your software platforms, this can be found on varying marketplaces with a wide range of native integrations. If there is no suitable native integration you may have to use a custom built integration. If you require a custom integration you'll need to develop new technology to effectively integrate each software. This can require a team of specialised technology developers as it can be a complex process..
