Why teams connect DealCloud and Drift

Run DealCloud and Drift side by side with the same accounts and contacts in both, whether they serve different teams or one is replacing the other.

Two CRMs in one company is more common than anyone plans for: an acquisition brings its own system, regions or business units standardize differently, or a migration is under way and both are live. In every case, some of the same companies and people exist in both systems, and every day of manual double entry pushes the copies further apart.

Stacksync syncs Company, Contact, Fund, Investment in DealCloud with Playbooks, Meetings, Contacts, Conversations in Drift in real time and in both directions, with field-level mapping and matching on identifiers you choose. Update a record in either CRM and the other reflects it within seconds.

Common use cases

  • 01 Mirror DealCloud activities and tasks into an operational database to power internal dashboards without hitting the API on every read.
  • 02 Push portfolio and fund performance data from a warehouse into DealCloud so dealmakers see up-to-date metrics on each investment.
  • 03 Sync Drift-captured contacts into the CRM so chat-sourced leads enter standard sales workflows immediately.
  • 04 Land conversation transcripts and outcomes in a warehouse for funnel and chat-to-pipeline analysis.

Common sync patterns

Where both track pipeline: deal visibility across systems

Deal stage and value on shared accounts stay visible from either CRM.

Post-acquisition consolidation

Keep both CRMs accurate while the merged team decides on a target system, instead of freezing one and losing months of updates.

Migration with a parallel run

When one CRM is replacing the other, run both fully live until cutover, with no snapshot gap and no data freeze.

How changes propagate between DealCloud and Drift

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.

DealCloud Drift Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls DealCloud for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Incremental via each entry's last-modified timestamp.

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

Drift DealCloud Sub-second propagation

DetectionDrift notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhook events for new conversations, messages, and contact changes.

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