About SuperOffice CRM Online apps
SuperOffice CRM Online has great extensibility points that allow vendors to create complimentary applications in and around SuperOffice.
While a great standalone CRM solution, SuperOffice becomes better with complimentary applications.
What are applications?
An application for SuperOffice CRM Online expands the CRM solution to resolve relevant business needs and lets you extend the capabilities of SuperOffice.
The key to any integration is that the application is relevant and adds value to customers in their sales, marketing, customer service, and/or business processes.
You can think of an application as a link to another cloud service. The link allows the other service to retrieve, present, or add data to SuperOffice.
If you use the APIs, which you will have to use to communicate with the database, it is an application!
All SuperOffice CRM Online applications get a unique ID to identify each integration within our environment.
