DO YOU NEED HELP WITH A SYSTEM INTEGRATION?

OVERVIEW

We define system integrations is the use of built in tools to get two pieces of software talking to each other.

They are not custom-built integrations, they are pre-made and come with the software.

They usually require expertise to establish, activate and manage.

WHY ARE SYSTEM INTEGRATIONS IMPORTANT?

At the most basic level, using standard integrations ensures data flows quickly and accurately between systems, providing all the benefits mentioned in our custom integration section.

At advanced levels, some standard integrations are very complex and capable – allowing for sophisticated control of how data is used. The Shopify to Cin7 integration is one of the most powerful we’ve seen. There are many functions that may be turned on or off, giving the user considerable flexibility in how they present their webstore to their customers and how this data flows to their inventory management system.
