Why teams connect BetterContact and Insightly

Flow BetterContact data into Insightly in real time — no exports, no schedulers, no custom scripts.

BetterContact is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into Insightly, so Insightly always reflects the current state of BetterContact — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

The CRM is supposed to be the record of every customer relationship, but customer-relevant information also accumulates in the other tools a team runs. Whatever BetterContact holds or produces that touches a customer, whether conversations, payments, replies, enriched data, or notes, the CRM only benefits if it arrives without someone copying it over.

Common use cases

  • 01 Feed outbound sequencing tools with verified contact data before campaigns launch.
  • 02 Validate catch-all email addresses before sending to protect sender domain reputation.
  • 03 Replicate opportunities into Postgres or a warehouse so RevOps can report on pipeline with SQL
  • 04 Keep Insightly projects aligned with delivery or PSA tools after opportunities close

Common sync patterns

How changes propagate between BetterContact and Insightly

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

BetterContact Insightly Sub-second propagation

DetectionBetterContact notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Job-based delivery — enrichment results arrive by webhook push or polling of the results endpoint.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Insightly through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Insightly BetterContact Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Insightly for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on record updated-date fields.

DeliveryBetterContact does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: BetterContact's output flows back as field updates on the originating Insightly records.

Rate-limit considerations

  • BetterContact: Batches capped at 100 contacts per enrichment request.
  • Insightly: Daily API request caps vary by Insightly plan.
