Stacksync mirrors Custom Fields, Contacts, Organizations, Leads from Insightly into Managed Databases, Databases, Schemas, Tables in Amazon Lightsail with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Insightly with validation intact.
