Why teams connect Akeneo and Salesloft

Keep the customers and orders that Salesloft and Akeneo share aligned in real time, so sales works from live purchase history and the store works from current account details.

Salesloft holds the customer relationship: the contacts, accounts, and deals a go-to-market team works. Akeneo runs the buying side: who placed which order, what they bought, and where it ships. The two describe the same people and companies, and when they are connected only by exports, sales answers questions without recent orders in front of them while the store works from account details that changed weeks ago.

Stacksync links Tasks, Meetings, Users, Custom Fields in Salesloft to Assets, Channels and locales, Media files, Products in Akeneo with bi-directional, real-time sync. New customers, order activity, and corrected contact details move in whichever direction you configure, field by field, with conflicts resolved by rules you set. A record created or changed on either side shows up on the other within seconds, with no CSV exports and no nightly job.

The shared entity is the customer, matched on email or an external ID, so both systems agree on who the buyer is and the order history sits next to the relationship instead of in a separate tab.

Common use cases

  • 01 Keep person and account custom fields populated from an enrichment pipeline for personalization tokens.
  • 02 Reconcile ownership by syncing user assignments between the CRM and Salesloft.
  • 03 Push enriched Products and their Assets into an ecommerce storefront or commerce database when product.created and product.updated webhooks fire.
  • 04 Write Categories, Families, and Attributes from an ERP or supplier feed into Akeneo to build and maintain catalog structure.

Common sync patterns

Contact and address details stay consistent

An email, phone, or shipping and billing address corrected in either system updates the other, so the next order and the next outreach both use current information.

Where Salesloft segments customers: status travels to the store record

Lifecycle stage, tier, or account owner set in Salesloft syncs onto the customer record in Akeneo, so the buying side can act on how the relationship is classified.

Where both keep product records: catalog and CRM products aligned

Where Salesloft tracks products or line items and Akeneo holds the catalog, shared items are matched on SKU so quotes, deals, and orders reference the same products.
