API Work
Increasingly clients are asking for their website to be linked into their Customer Relationship Management (CRM) platforms. Examples of CRMs include Zoho, OpenCRM and Hubspot. A common pattern is for a contact form to send enquiries into the CRM for later follow up. Sometimes this is easy to integrate – a lot depends on the popularity of the CRM being used and whether there is already an integration available.
We can build custom API integrations, we just need adequate documentation from the provider.
