Built Yor own Integration and learn How To Play and meet their Demands

There was a time when, if you wanted to connect two solutions, you would have to write the code yourself. Even with full API access, this was time- and resource-consuming. Oftentimes, this process was glitchy and faulty. It needed countless patches and it rarely worked well.

In fact, it was more frustrating than migrating your data manually from solution to solution. Needless to say, this meant that integration was only available to the big corporations who afforded to invest the big bucks.

Oh, how times have changed.

I was reminded of this rocky start of the integration industry when my colleagues discussed with Jendco’s Matt, who also tried to write his own integration between ActiveCampaign and NetSuite.

Let’s start with a quick intro: Jendco Safety Supply is an eCommerce company that specializes in safety products. They use the ActiveCampaign for NetSuite integration to manage their Leads and Accounts. But their journey didn’t start as smoothly.

Jendco chose ActiveCampaign for their marketing automation but discovered there was no way to connect it to NetSuite. A quick look at the ActiveCampaign API helped them discover that it would be overwhelming to create the integration themselves. This is how they came across SyncApps, which allowed them to connect ActiveCampaign to NetSuite seamlessly and effortlessly.

We chatted with Matt about what they like most about the SyncApps ActiveCampaign to NetSuite integration:

  • How easy it is to get started, especially looking at the API scripting themselves.
  • The unbeatable price.
  • The ROI of using SyncApps vs developing your own in-house integration is out of the charts.
  • The ability to sync custom fields. Jendco developed quite a few hacks in-house to boost their marketing campaigns. And the ability to sync those brought them even more ROI because they were able to truly rely on their 100% custom-made campaigns and segmentation.
  • The fact that it takes just a few clicks to sync any number of custom fields.
