Why teams connect Exasol and Intercom

Sync Intercom into Exasol continuously and push warehouse results back onto CRM records, one two-way connection instead of two pipelines.

The CRM feeds the warehouse and the warehouse should feed the CRM: relationship data flows one way, and computed scores, segments, and customer context flow back. Most teams build the first half as a batch pipeline and never quite get to the second.

Stacksync does both with one connection. Companies, Conversations, Tickets, Data Events from Intercom land in Exasol as live tables, updated within seconds, and columns computed in Exasol write back to fields in Intercom. There is no separate ETL and reverse-ETL stack to stitch together and no jobs to babysit.

Common use cases

  • Sync contacts and companies bi-directionally with the CRM so support sees deal context and sales sees conversation history
  • Push product usage events from an application database into Intercom to trigger onboarding and retention messages
  • Keep dimension tables such as customers and products aligned with the systems of record.
  • Load CRM and ERP records into Exasol tables on a schedule so analysts query fresh operational data.

Scores and segments back on the record

Lead scores, churn risk, or usage segments computed in Exasol appear as fields in Intercom, where the people working accounts actually see them.

A single customer view

Join Intercom's relationship data with billing, product, and support data in Exasol to build the customer picture the CRM alone cannot hold.

Cleanup that sticks

Deduplication and normalization done in Exasol can be written back, so warehouse-side cleanup actually fixes the CRM.

What you can sync between Exasol and Intercom

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.

Exasol objects Intercom objects
Views Read-only query surfaces often used as curated sources for reverse ETL. Contacts A single contact model covers both users and leads, distinguished by a role attribute.
Virtual schemas Federated views over external sources; useful for deciding what needs physical replication. Companies Company records group contacts and carry plan and account attributes used in segmentation.
UDF scripts In-database functions that can transform synced data after load. Conversations Support and sales threads sync outward for analytics and CRM context.
Users and roles Grant read/write access for the dedicated integration account. Tickets Structured ticket records track issues alongside conversational threads.
Schemas Namespaces that group the tables a sync reads from or writes into. Data Events Behavioral events pushed in from product databases trigger messages and flows.
Tables Primary sync target; columnar relational tables written with standard SQL. Custom Data Attributes Typed custom fields on contacts and companies hold synced billing and usage data.
