Singapore-based cloud service provider TradeGecko has added Salesforce.com integration to its online inventory management system.
The company’s latest integration work follows earlier efforts to enable its users to tap on other cloud-based services such as e-commerce software Shopify and accounting tools Xero and Quickbooks.
According to Cameron Priest, chief executive officer of TradeGecko, the Salesforce integration is driven by demand from a growing number of customers who are using Salesforce to manage their customer relationships.
With the integration, which is currently in beta, a TradeGecko customer would be able to automatically sync contacts from Salesforce to TradeGecko. If you edit an existing contact on either platform, the other one is automatically updated as well.
In addition, each customer’s history in Salesforce will also be updated with his or her TradeGecko order histories. And as soon as a customer places an order on TradeGecko, Salesforce will update that customer’s purchase history.
The benefits of TradeGecko’s Salesforce integration are obvious – with a single view of a customer’s contact details and purchase history on both platforms, businesses can avoid the hassle of updating information on both cloud platforms and focus on selling.
The latest integration is available to TradeGecko customers on the Business Premium plan who also have the Salesforce Professional plan at no extra cost. TradeGecko is also planning to launch its app on Salesforce AppExchange to reach out to more Salesforce customers.
