Why teams connect Copper CRM and Front

Sync what happens in Front with the customer records in Copper CRM, in real time and in both directions.

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 Front 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.

Stacksync connects Inboxes, Tags, Teammates, Channels in Front to Pipelines, Custom Field Definitions, People, Companies in Copper CRM with bi-directional, real-time sync. Activity and record changes in Front update the matching contact or account in Copper CRM, and CRM data flows the other way wherever Front can store and use it.

  • 02 Mirror conversations tagged for escalation into engineering trackers through the synced database.
  • 03 Sync Copper people and opportunities into a warehouse for pipeline reporting beyond Copper's native dashboards.
  • 04 Two-way sync between Copper and an accounting or invoicing system so won opportunities become customers and invoices.
