Business integrations are changing the way that small to medium-size businesses are able to operate. You can synchronize more information with business objectives so that technology is aligned more effectively with your business strategy and goals. Understanding some of the latest trends of how IT is becoming a major function of business integrations will help you to determine what is out there and how it can help you reach your business goals.

Enterprise-Level Apps

More businesses are using apps than ever before. The digital transformation has certainly occurred throughout most industries. It is estimated that businesses around the world will spend approximately $1.3 trillion on transformation projects by 2021.

Businesses are making the commitment to become more digital. As such, it’s no surprise that there are more and more cloud-based apps being used by businesses than ever before. There may be as many as 1000 apps being used by a company at any given time. It also means that business integrations are more critical. Connecting to apps across the different departments ensures that work can be automated. However, all of those apps need to connect to one another and workflows need to be adjusted to compensate for them.

IT Budgets are Shrinking

Unfortunately, IT responsibilities are growing faster than most IT departments know how to keep up with. The biggest problem is that businesses have shrinking budgets, particularly in the area of IT. You need to make sure you are keeping up with basic service level requirements while also making sure that you are keeping up with all of the latest initiatives. The IT department needs the freedom to improve processes.

SyncApps by Cazoomi allows you to integrate the various apps that you have to be able to free up your IT department to focus on the other tasks that they have going on. Even with a shrinking budget, you have the ability to accomplish this. For as low as $100 a month, you can sync all of the different integrations and have an unlimited number of account users. There are plenty of customizations available to you as well as flexible Singh scheduling. You will also have access to 24/7 support an email so that your IT department is able to focus on business integration without being overwhelmed by the process.

Non-Technical Employees are Forced to Make Tech Decisions

Another trend that you are likely to encounter is that a number of non-technical employees are forced to make decisions involving technology and IT. It used to be that anything involving technology went to the IT department. However, this is not always the case. Supervisors, senior-level managers, and even those at a corporate level who don’t have a tech background have to make decisions involving technology. This can lead to a variety of problems simply because of them not knowing enough about the technology to say whether one solution is better than another.

The reality is that IT affects everyone. User-friendly tools are being adopted whether the IT department is signing off on them or not. In some instances, supervisors are integrating apps and bots into operations without understanding how they are going to affect the workflow. It is then up to you to make sure that you are doing everything you can in order to streamline the workflow – and this is why can be beneficial to use various business integrations.

Salesforce, for example, can be synced to Constant Contact or MailChimp. CRMs, ERPs, and more. It allows you to improve your workflow and ensure that you are connected to all possible data.
