Marketing & sales operations systems are multifaceted, occupying across databases, channels and applications. Odds are that your team is using dozens of applications, each requiring different operational parameters. This brings us back to the challenges of leveraging siloed data and sharing scores and updated profiles in applications like CRM, bots, etc. While both are cumbersome processes by hand, the ability to integrate and aim them exists within certain Customer Data Platform (CDP) solutions that have application integration capabilities. With the right CDP, sales & marketing teams can seamlessly integrate data from (and to) a variety of application systems for a unified, single source of truth from which to operate from. Implementing a CDP solution doesn\u2019t just reduce the burden of doing things in separate systems \u2013 it completely streamlines your entire sales & marketing pipeline, accelerates close rates, and maximizes your downstream ROI.<\/p>\n

But remember, not all CDPs have the same integration capabilities, so you need a way to determine which is the most qualified to incorporate the applications you use. Consider leading research and advisory companies like Forrester, who recently published The Forrester New Wave\u2122: B2B Standalone CDPs, Q4, 2021<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In Forrester\u2019s evaluation of 14 leading B2B CDP companies, Forrester considers several factors to compare each CDP\u2019s Application Integration capabilities. In determining each solution\u2019s Application Integration, Forrester looked into the application categories and specific vendor solutions that are integrated and whether each is bi-directional, custom or native, and finally, which additional functionality is provided by these custom\/native integrations. In conclusion of their evaluation, Forrester differentiated Leadspace\u2019s solution as a leader in application integration capabilities! Let\u2019s take a closer look at some of the application integrations Leadspace provides.<\/p>\n

Leadspace has out-of-the-box native integrations for SFDC, MS Dynamics, Eloqua, Marketo, Hubspot, Pardot, Google Analytics, Adobe Analytics, SalesLoft, LiveRamp, and LinkedIn.\u00a0 Beyond these specific platforms, our REST API can be leveraged to push and pull data (bi-directionally) into any API-enabled system on a real time\/one-off or scheduled\/batch basis.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Our Professional Services team can also develop on top of our Ingestion API to support more custom use cases.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
