How to Get Integrated

1. Pre-built/standard integrations2. Built on demand by vendor or third-party3. DIY with off-the-shelf platform and/or connectors

What is possible and how to get it done will largely be determined by:A. What your vendors have already built

and/or

B. What your vendors can support in their platforms

Approaching your Vendors1. Spend 30 minutes educating yourself:

– Google “your-vendor-name integration”– Look for links with “API”, “Developer”,

and “Marketplace”

2. Contact your Account Managers on both sides of the integration.

3. Explain your business drivers and the workflow(s) that you need.

4. Let them know your timeline (be realistic!)

5. If you are in a buying situation, make integration a requirement.

Costs• There is usually work to do by both vendors to enable an

integration.• One or both vendors may charge the customer.• Often a formal Change Order or SOW is required.• Typical fees range from $2,500 to $5,000 on each side.• Let your vendor know if you will have multiple systems to

integrate.• Integration is not inexpensive but it can provide great ROI.

2. How long an integration takes and how much it costs will vary, typically 1-3 months and $2,000 to $5,000.

3. Before investing too much time seeking an integration, you need to determine ROI for your situation.

4. Integrations can be technically complex but you can focus on your workflow requirements and leave the rest to your vendors.
