Acumatica 5.0 Microsoft Exchange Integration
Microsoft Exchange has long been one of the most popular business email systems on the market. So it stands to reason that many organizations want to be able to integrate it with their customer relationship management (CRM) solutions. Acumatica 5.0 makes this easier than ever, no matter whether you use Office 365 or an on premise Exchange server. You can synchronize a wide variety of data and records, including contacts, appointments, tasks and email which reduces the amount of manual or duplicate data entry your staff must perform. But, it doesn’t stop there. This integration also encourages collaboration by making information that was previously locked away on one or two people’s computers available to everyone throughout the organization. Better yet, all of this can be achieved natively from within Acumatica, no plug-in is required. A few additional features that Acumatica 5.0’s Exchange integration offers:
- Automatic email detection – Don’t lose track of vital conversations. With the Acumatica 5.0 Microsoft Exchange Integration, Acumatica can automatically detect new email conversations and turn them into activities within your Acumatica CRM contact records.
- Worry free two-way synchronization – Edit your contacts, events and/or tasks in Acumatica or your Outlook email, which ever application is more comfortable to you. No matter where the change originates, it will automatically show up in both locations.
- Customizable synchronization policies – Choose the synchronization policies that fit your organization and/or personal needs. Synchronization policies can be set at the user level, giving users the freedom to decide whether they want to sync their appointments, contacts and/or tasks that are flagged with a specific category or saved in a particular folder.
As you can see, the Acumatica 5.0 Microsoft Exchange integration is a powerful tool that can help you and your team communicate more freely and improve productivity.
