Overview
Stop Copying Data Between Systems
When your tools do not talk to each other, your team becomes the connection. Orders are retyped into accounts, contacts are copied into the CRM and stock is updated by hand. It is slow, mistakes creep in and the workload grows with every new customer.
System integration removes the manual step. Data can move automatically between your systems, accurately and in real time, based on the capabilities and limits of each platform.
In a Smartsheet survey, nearly 60% of workers estimated they could save six or more hours a week if repetitive tasks were automated. We map your workflow first, then recommend a connector or custom integration based on what your systems need to do.

Choose the right approach
Connector or Custom Integration?
For simple, low-volume tasks, a connector such as Zapier or Make may be enough. A custom integration can be a better fit when volume, process complexity or reliability requirements grow.
| Consideration | Connector tools (Zapier, Make) | Custom integration |
|---|---|---|
| Set-up cost | Usually lower for simple workflows | Higher initial build investment |
| Running cost | Monthly fees may rise with usage | No per-task connector fees; hosting or support may still apply |
| Reliability | Works well for straightforward tasks | Can include tailored error handling and monitoring |
| Flexibility | Limited to available triggers and actions | Designed around your specific process |
Built for trust
Security, Monitoring and Reliability
An integration is only useful if you can trust it. We plan access, data handling, failure visibility and handover as part of the build.
Secure authentication
API keys and tokens are stored securely, not in plain text.
Encrypted data
Data is protected in transit and handled in line with applicable data-protection requirements.
Least-access permissions
Each connection is scoped to the information and actions it needs.
Failure alerts
Alerts can flag when an integration stops or falls behind.
Logs and retries
Transfers are recorded, with failed messages retried and duplicate processing guarded against.
Documentation
Clear handover notes explain how each integration works.

The Process
Our Integration Process
Five clear stages, with a fixed price agreed before the build begins.
- 1
Review Your Systems
We map your workflow and review what each system’s API can do.
- 2
Plan and Fixed Quote
You review and approve the field mapping, sync rules and written price.
- 3
Build
We develop the integration with error handling for the agreed workflows.
- 4
Test With Real Data
We test edge cases, expected volumes and failure scenarios before launch.
- 5
Launch and Monitor
We launch, configure agreed alerts and hand over the integration documentation.
Cost and timelines
Integration Cost and Timelines
Cost depends on each system’s API quality, whether data flows one way or both, and the volume of records. Every project receives a fixed written quote.
| Integration | From | Typical timeline |
|---|---|---|
| Simple one-way connection | Fixed quote after review | Agreed after scoping |
| Two-way data sync | Fixed quote after review | Agreed after scoping |
| Custom API | Fixed quote per project | Agreed after scoping |
Optional support plans can cover monitoring, updates when third-party APIs change and new connections. Support scope and pricing are confirmed separately.

API Integration FAQs
A simple connection between two systems generally costs less than a two-way sync or custom API. Cost depends on each system’s API and the project scope, and you receive a fixed written quote before work begins.
Timing depends on each system’s API quality, the number of systems and the sync rules. Two-way syncs and custom APIs can take longer. We agree the schedule after reviewing the scope.
If a system has an API, we can usually connect it. We review each system’s capabilities before quoting so there are no surprises about what is supported.
Zapier or Make suits simple, low-volume tasks. A custom integration is a better fit for high volumes, complex rules or business-critical data. If a connector tool will do the job, we will recommend it.
Integrations include agreed failure alerts and logs so issues can be identified and investigated. Monitoring and response arrangements are confirmed as part of the project scope.
We use secure authentication, encryption and minimal access. Custom integration code and documentation belong to your business, with ownership and handover set out in the project agreement.
