How to Integrate CRM with Sage 50

With sophisticated products such as Sage CRM, Infor CRM, Act! Growth Suite, Dynamics 365, SalesForce and many more, the integration challenges can be complex, as many of these systems are highly configured around your business processes.

There are a number of options that you can choose from to successfully integrate CRM and Sage. You can either purchase an existing CRM system that already integrates with Sage 50 or you can go down the route of a bespoke integration solution, this is sometimes the case if you already have a customer management solution which has been highly customised.
