ERP System Integrations
Whether you’re using NetSuite as the core ERP platform for your business or you rely on a CRM, such as Salesforce, to keep track of your clients and sales, you know how your company benefits from integrating them.
Many organizations rely on software integrations to make their data shareable and accessible among their teams.
We always recommend including an integration plan at the very start of your ERP implementation project. But, if you haven’t, there’s often a point when you come to this realization.
As your business grows and you follow through with your digital transformation plan, the number of applications and workflows expand, creating a need for automation across certain activities.
An ERP connector gives you better communication and cross-functionality among all applications and systems.
Together with your ERP and CRM, it streamlines important business processes and encourages collaboration among teams. It offers data sharing and visibility in real-time so you’ll see exactly how your organization is performing.
By breaking down these internal silos, your business will benefit from greater productivity and efficiency in reaching your strategic objectives. Moreover, your teams will make less errors since they won’t have to manually input all of that data.
What is an Integration?
An integration, also known as a connector, is a system that brings together applications, data, and, of course, their users within organizations.
Let’s say your business runs on a multi-cloud environment or across various applications. An integration is a cost-effective solution for running these applications all together.
It encourages data sharing and collaboration among teams as well as less manual data input to avoid human errors, allowing your teams to focus on the more important tasks in your business.
In the end, you’ll get full data visibility across all applications, when you need it, at your fingertips.
What is Boomi?
Boomi is an Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) used in software integrations - often called a middleware. It has the necessary information to connect data sources and applications to your organization’s ERP platform.
With the plan you created together with your ERP implementation partner,you’ll get quick and simple integration across applications so your overall business can remain connected anywhere.
If you work in a cloud environment or use several different applications, Boomi would be the answer to your concerns of having too much data moving around at once.
Boomi can help you connect NetSuite to important applications and systems like Shopify or HubSpot as well as many others.
You’ll bring together the back-office data from NetSuite with important data from these applications, all with one smart connector, in one place.
You and your teams won’t have to look very far for real-time data on purchase orders, inventory levels and other business processes.
Commonly used by many large businesses around the world, Boomi is a quick and intelligent connector for your important applications. The streamlined flow of information between these applications ultimately results in productivity for your business.
You’ll automate processes and increase efficiency from your clients as well.
