In today’s fast-paced digital landscape, efficient communication and seamless collaboration are paramount for businesses to thrive. If your business has invested in NetSuite to create visibility across all internal teams, handle process automation, and ultimately be the single source of truth, that’s a critical step. In many cases, even once that investment has been made, not all important communication makes it into the database, creating a need for email integration with NetSuite. 

Part of the job of a customer relationship management (CRM) platform is to track back-and-forth communications such as email and phone calls. Clicking back and forth between NetSuite CRM and your email inbox takes time, which is why NetSuite allows integration between its platform and email. 

Why Does Email Integration Matter

Integrating between NetSuite and email lets teams consolidate information into a single screen—no more toggling between inbox and CRM. But that’s not the only benefit. 

1. Improved oversight on email ROI and the customer journey: Email can have a big impact on the overall sales process. Without connecting email and NetSuite, you might not have insight into how a specific email impacted your sales cycle. You’ve spent time writing and sending emails. Now make sure you can see how emails convert sales. 
2. Connect emails automatically: When customer data is in the CRM, but composing an email takes place in Outlook or Gmail, you’re adding precious minutes to the process to attach a sent email to a NetSuite record for tracking. Integration can ensure that emails are easily connected directly from the inbox, making it easier to complete that crucial step. 

That’s why we developed ExtendSync for Outlook and Gmail, powerful tools that are transforming the way organizations manage emails and appointments. Let’s take a look at how ExtendSync works and explore the wide array of benefits it offers to customers.

Understanding ExtendSync Email Integration

ExtendSync is a productivity-enhancing solution designed to integrate seamlessly with Microsoft Outlook, Gmail, and NetSuite. Its core purpose is to bridge the gap between email communication and customer relationship management, simplifying the workflow for sales and customer support teams.

The beauty of ExtendSync lies in its ability to centralize data and streamline processes, enabling users to work more efficiently without switching between applications. Here’s how it works:

1. Email Integration: ExtendSync integrates directly into Microsoft Outlook or Gmail, transforming your inbox into a hub for customer interactions. When you receive an email, ExtendSync searches NetSuite for matching records based on the sender or recipient email address. You can then easily associate it with the corresponding CRM records, such as leads, contacts, or opportunities. This ensures that important communication is never lost or buried in your inbox. 
2. Enhanced Synchronization: ExtendSync’s Autopilot feature enables users to put an email thread or individual email address on Autopilot. The tool syncs seamlessly with NetSuite to add matching emails directly to the CRM. NetSuite data can be messy, but with ExtendSync you always determine the record to attach to the first time so you know all subsequent attachments will be on the right record. 
3. Calendar Management: With ExtendSync, you can effortlessly sync your CRM calendar with your NetSuite calendar. This enables you to stay organized and ensures that you never miss an important meeting. 
4. Document Management: Significantly cut down on NetSuite storage costs by instead leveraging Microsoft OneDrive and SharePoint along with Google Drive links within ExtendSync to associate files and folders with NetSuite records.
