Why teams connect BetterContact and Salesforce

Flow BetterContact data into Salesforce 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 Salesforce, so Salesforce 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 Enrich new CRM leads with verified emails and mobile numbers as they are created, writing results back to the CRM record.
  • 02 Backfill a warehouse of contacts with waterfall enrichment across 20+ data providers.
  • 03 Trigger provisioning or billing changes in an operational database when an Opportunity moves to closed-won.
  • 04 Consolidate multiple Salesforce orgs into a single database for cross-org reporting after an acquisition.

Common sync patterns

Where BetterContact can store CRM context: fields kept current

Owner, lifecycle stage, or account details from Salesforce sync into BetterContact, so people working there have the context without switching tools.

Where BetterContact runs outreach

Prospects, sends, and replies sync into Salesforce, keeping lead status current without manual imports.

Where BetterContact supplies contact or company data

Enriched fields land directly on records in Salesforce, and refreshes keep them from going stale.

What you can sync between BetterContact and Salesforce

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

BetterContact objects Salesforce objects How this pairing syncs
Enriched Contact Verified work emails and mobile numbers with job title, LinkedIn profile, location, and skills. Custom Objects Org-specific tables with the __c suffix; discoverable via describe metadata so field mappings can be generated. Enriched Contact is specific to BetterContact and Custom Objects to Salesforce — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Company Company data returned with each contact: name, domain, HQ location, industry, employee count. Accounts Company records that anchor most syncs; typically mapped to customer tables in a database or ERP. Company is specific to BetterContact and Accounts to Salesforce — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Lead Finder Search Prospect discovery by people and company filters, returning enriched lead profiles. Contacts People linked to Accounts; synced two-way with marketing, support, and warehouse person records. Lead Finder Search is specific to BetterContact and Contacts to Salesforce — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Enrichment Request Batch or single submissions of up to 100 contacts per request for waterfall enrichment. Leads Unqualified prospects; often written into Salesforce from enrichment or product-signup pipelines. Enrichment Request is specific to BetterContact and Leads to Salesforce — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between BetterContact and Salesforce

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 Salesforce 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 Salesforce through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Salesforce BetterContact Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Salesforce are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Apex triggers are used whenever possible (Salesforce actively notifies Stacksync via an Apex trigger + callout class + remote site setting).

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 Salesforce records.

Rate-limit considerations

  • BetterContact: Batches capped at 100 contacts per enrichment request.
  • Salesforce: Daily API request allocations vary by edition and license count.
