With Zapier it is possible to connect systems so that data can be transported from Alunta into another system you use in the company. Far from all companies have technical skills and with Zapier this is fortunately not necessary.
What is Zapier and how does it work with Alunta?
Zapier is a platform that allows you to connect different software solutions without writing code. It connects data and systems like an open API, but it can be done without you having to write a single line of computer code yourself. Using Zapier, companies can easily automate workflows by creating “Zaps”, which are predefined actions that are triggered when certain conditions are met. With the integration between Alunta and Zapier, companies can connect their service agreements and subscription data with over 3,000 other apps. Zapier acts as a bridge that makes it easy to move information between Alunta and tools like Google Sheets, Slack, Mailchimp or CRM systems. It is a fast and easy-to-use solution for companies that want to optimize their operations without diving into complex software development.
Automate repetitive tasks without technical knowledge
For many businesses, manual, repetitive tasks are a huge time-suck. With Zapier, you can easily automate tasks like scheduling service renewals, sending invoices, or following up on customer inquiries – without any technical knowledge. By connecting Alunta to apps like Google Calendar or Outlook, you can automatically update your calendar when a new service subscription is created in Alunta. Similarly, by integrating with Slack, you can receive notifications directly when a new service subscription is on the way. This type of automation saves time and reduces errors, so you can focus on running your business. Learn about our own journey to more automation.
Connect Alunta with your favorite tools
Zapier makes it possible to connect Alunta with a wide range of tools that you already use in your business. For example, you can integrate with Mailchimp to automatically send newsletters to your customers based on their subscription status in Alunta. You can also simply update the customer list in your CRM system. Additionally, you can also use Google Sheets to automatically update a spreadsheet with data from your service agreements and subscriptions, giving you an easy way to keep track of your agreements and payments. By connecting Alunta with your favorite tools, you can ensure that all your systems work together and share up-to-date data, creating a more efficient and consistent workflow.
When should you choose Zapier over an API?
Not all companies are web agencies. Far from it. Zapier is ideal for companies that don’t have the resources to build technical integrations or don’t need an in-depth, customized solution. If your company has simple processes that can be automated using standard connections between apps, Zapier is the perfect solution. It’s quick to set up and doesn’t require developers or technical expertise. However, if you need more flexible, customized integrations where you have full control over data and processes, an API might be a better option. Read more about Alunta’s open API here. Nonetheless, Zapier is best suited for companies that want quick and easy automation without having to invest in advanced software development.
Scale your automation with easy setup
One of the biggest benefits of using Zapier with Alunta is how easy it is to scale automation. As your business grows and you have more service agreements and subscriptions to manage, you can easily add new Zaps to handle the increased workload. For example, if you use a financial system like QuickBooks, you can create a Zap that automatically creates customers in Pipedrive every time a new customer and service subscription is created in Alunta. This means you can scale your processes without having to deal with more manual tasks, allowing you to focus on growing your business.
Improve customer experience with personalized workflows
With the Alunta and Zapier integration, you can improve your customer service by creating personalized workflows that adapt to each customer’s needs. For example, you can use the integration to automatically send follow-up emails to your customers via Mailchimp or Gmail when their service agreement is approaching renewal. You can also use CRM tools like HubSpot or Zoho to update customer data and automate follow-ups. This type of automation ensures that your customers feel valued and receive timely information, which increases customer loyalty and improves the overall customer experience.
