OutlookBridge

Why MS Outlook integration?
MS Outlook is the #1 personal productivity tool – there are 400,000 MS Outlook users in the world! People that use MS Outlook stick to this environment, and it is a real challenge for ISVs to switch business users from MS Outlook to their application.
So, why force Outlook adepts to switch? What, if we install a business application inside MS Outlook in such a way that business users will not even see the difference between the two applications? This way, people can stay in the environment they are used to, and at the same time, have all the corporate data tightly integrated with the business logic of a corporate application.
Do not bother how to bring data to MS Outlook, or how to sync it with your system without performance issues, or how to change MS Outlook’s UI: just rely on the InvisibleCRM solutions. All you need is to enable your API and define your business requirements. We will do the rest.
