The Problem
The client’s sales team used both Epicor BisTrack, their on-premise Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, and HubSpot, their Customer Relationship Management (CRM) platform, to manage deals. This created data silos – deals created in one system weren’t automatically reflected in the other. This inconsistency made it difficult to track sales
progress, manage customer interactions, and gain a holistic view of the sales funnel.
For instance, a salesperson might create a new deal in HubSpot for a potential customer needing equipment rentals. However, this deal wouldn’t automatically populate in Epicor, making it impossible to track inventory or generate quotes accurately. Conversely, a deal created in Epicor for an existing customer wouldn’t be visible within HubSpot, hindering communication and personalized outreach.
Solution
We implemented a bi-directional integration between Epicor BisTrack and HubSpot. This integration synchronizes critical data points across both platforms, including:
- Companies: Customer information is synced to ensure both systems have a complete and up-to-date record of each client.
- Contacts: Individual contact details within companies are synchronized, providing a centralized view of all customer interactions.
- Deals: Deals created in either system are automatically reflected in the other, ensuring all sales activity is tracked and readily accessible.
- Products: Product information, including pricing and availability, is synced to maintain consistency and accuracy across sales channels.
Results
The bi-directional integration has significantly improved the client’s sales operations. Here are some key benefits:
- Enhanced Data Visibility: Sales teams now have a unified view of all sales activity, regardless of the system used for initial data entry.
- Improved Efficiency: Automatic data synchronization eliminates manual data entry, saving time and reducing the risk of errors.
- Streamlined Communication: Consistent information across platforms allows for better communication between sales and customer service teams, leading to a more positive customer experience.
- Data-Driven Decisions: Accurate and centralized sales data facilitates better forecasting, resource allocation, and overall sales strategy development.
By integrating Epicor and HubSpot, this leading construction supplier has streamlined their sales process, improved data accuracy, and gained valuable insights to drive continued growth.
