System integration
Integrating information from different sources is essential to running your business effectively. We build solutions that integrate 3rd party information and functionality to leverage maximum value from the sum of all the parts. In recent years there has been a significant increase in the use of API technology. The term API stands for 'Application programming interface' which is a set of clearly defined data structures and methods of communication between various software components.
Companies make some parts of their software accessible to external developers so that they can integrate its data with other applications. The number of possible system integrations are huge, but here is a small list of examples where by using a third-party API, we can integrate external information into your application:
E-commerce
We can integrate an online payment gateway into your application and allow your visitors to purchase your products safely. We can also integrate quoting, booking, ordering and ticketing systems into your application along with stock management, inventory etc.
Accounting systems
We can integrate an accounting system into your application. It can be fully automated or semi automated, depending on your requirements and budgets. The functionality could include invoicing, receipts, tax calculations, deposit handling and financial reporting.
Social networks and reviews
We can integrate social network feeds and functionality into your application. Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, Twitter etc. Your potential clients can read some of your social network posts from within your spplication so they can easily share it with their network using their own accounts. User-generated ratings & reviews are often integrated into applications to increase brand reliability and trust.
Email marketing
We can integrate email marketing systems into your application, so your email campaigns and lead generation can be streamlined from within your centrlised application solution.
CRM
We can integrate your CRM (Customer Relationship Management) functionality into your business application so that you can have one centrlised system that deals with the management of your organisation's relationships and interactions with customers and potential customers.
If it's got an API, we can integrate it
We can integrate any systems that make their API available to developers. This could be in any sector or market. If you are not sure if you are not sure whether an API is available for your preferred software, please don't hesitate to get in touch and we can research it for you.

The system they created for us allowed us to communicate internally with each other, but also externally with the recording sessions and the musicians we’re booking.
