Why teams connect SugarCRM and Xactly

Run SugarCRM and Xactly 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 Cases, Calls and Meetings, Tasks, Campaigns in SugarCRM with Quotas / Targets, Payment Summary (Payable), Products & Customers, Orders in Xactly 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 Replicate Sugar modules into Postgres so RevOps can query CRM data with SQL and drive internal tools
  • 02 Keep contacts and leads aligned with marketing automation for consistent segmentation
  • 03 Replicate Products and Customer/Account master from CRM/ERP into Xactly so crediting rules resolve against consistent reference data.
  • 04 Mirror commission Transactions and Credits into a data warehouse to power rep-facing dashboards and comp-plan analytics without manual exports.

Common sync patterns

Divisional or regional split

Where each CRM serves a different team or region, sync just the shared accounts and contacts so handoffs and cross-sell work.

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.

What you can sync between SugarCRM and Xactly

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.

SugarCRM objects Xactly objects How this pairing syncs
Cases Support tickets kept aligned with help desk tools. Transactions (Commission & Bonus) Calculated commission and bonus line items produced by Incent's calculation engine; read as the output of comp runs for reporting and downstream payout, so effectively read-only results. Cases is specific to SugarCRM and Transactions (Commission & Bonus) to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Calls and Meetings Activity records used for engagement reporting. Participants (Payees) Sales reps and payees keyed to positions; loaded and updated from HRIS/HCM source data through Connect (write) and read for roster reporting, so read and write. Calls and Meetings is specific to SugarCRM and Participants (Payees) to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tasks Follow-ups attached to records across modules. Positions & Titles Org-hierarchy positions and titles that credits and quotas roll up to; loaded and maintained through Connect (write) and read to resolve the hierarchy, so read and write. Tasks is specific to SugarCRM and Positions & Titles to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Campaigns Marketing efforts tied back to leads and opportunities. Quotas / Targets Period quota and target values per position or plan; loaded from planning tools through Connect (write) and read for attainment reporting, so read and write. Campaigns is specific to SugarCRM and Quotas / Targets to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Custom modules Modules built with Module Builder get the same REST endpoints as stock ones. Payment Summary (Payable) Approved payable amounts per participant per period; read as the output that feeds payroll and accounts payable, so effectively read-only. Custom modules is specific to SugarCRM and Payment Summary (Payable) to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Accounts Company records, the usual join key against ERP customer masters. Products & Customers Product and customer/account master used in crediting rules and reporting; loaded and updated from CRM/ERP through Connect (write) and read for lookups, so read and write. Accounts is specific to SugarCRM and Products & Customers to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between SugarCRM and Xactly

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.

SugarCRM Xactly Sub-second propagation

DetectionSugarCRM notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Polling on date_modified.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Xactly as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Xactly SugarCRM Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Xactly for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No CDC log for external tools to consume.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • SugarCRM: Limits depend on the hosting model; on-premise instances are constrained by server capacity rather than fixed quotas.
  • Xactly: Xactly does not publish numeric per-second rate limits. The Connect platform enforces query concurrency and long-running-query limits, so large extracts are paged and heavy loads/queries run as asynchronous Connect jobs (submit, then retrieve results) rather than row-by-row calls; batch loads are the supported path for high volume.

Xactly

Integration surface
Xactly Connect REST API v2 (JSON), plus ODBC/JDBC drivers over the same ANSI-SQL data model. Incent data is exposed as SQL-queryable objects (for example xactly_order, xactly_credit, xactly_transaction, xactly_payment); data is loaded and extracted through Connect load/query steps and server-side ETL Pipelines. The base host is region/pod-specific (for example https://<pod>.xactlycorp.com).
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 via the Xactly Connect API Gateway (bearer tokens issued on behalf of an Xactly Incent user), with HTTP Basic authentication using a dedicated Xactly Connect service-user's credentials also supported for the Connect REST API v2. The connecting user needs Connect/API access plus the relevant object permissions in Incent.
Change detection
No CDC log for external tools to consume. Incremental sync uses SQL predicates on modified/last-updated timestamp columns (for example WHERE modified_date > watermark) against Connect's queryable objects, or scheduled Connect ETL Pipelines that pull deltas since the last run. Xactly Connect has no outbound HTTP webhooks, so change detection is pull/ETL-based.
Capabilities

Rate limits
Xactly does not publish numeric per-second rate limits. The Connect platform enforces query concurrency and long-running-query limits, so large extracts are paged and heavy loads/queries run as asynchronous Connect jobs (submit, then retrieve results) rather than row-by-row calls; batch loads are the supported path for high volume.
