Easily link Base with external CRM systems

What is the Base Zapier integration?

The Entegral Base system was recently improved with a native Zapier app integration. This allows estate agents to exchange data and create automated workflows with over 2000+ popular apps, including all the leading CRM specific apps. 



Why even link a CRM system?

Although Base has contact management, contact categories, automatic lead import, and other great CRM features, users sometimes require very specific CRM functions that we don't (yet) cater to. With our Zapier integration, we allow agents to link any popular app with Base. Once linked with your app, you can for instance automatically synchronise your contacts from Base to the external app or vice versa. 

The added benefit is that you can create automated workflows and link more apps (e.g. insert contact details into a Mailchimp drip email campaign and ZOHO CRM at the same time). This makes the Zapier fee irreverent compared to the derived benefits. 





So many CRM choices

With so many great CRM apps available, and most having feature-rich functionality, agents are unfortunately often left with choice paralysis. No CRM system will be a perfect fit for every estate agency out there. It is here where our Zapier integration really shines, as you can modify the integrations to work with the CRM of your choice, and not be locked in with only one choice.



Factor in the external CRM costs & time

External CRM systems come at a cost, and usually at a monthly fee per user. You need to weigh up the return on investment and factor in user adoption and the learning curve for maintaining another system. Most apps have free trials, so we encourage you to play around with them and see what works best for you and if you really require all the bells and whistles. Zapier also comes with a free trial so you can link op Base with external apps for testing.

Property24 acquires Private Property, what do estate agents think?

Image
Property24.com, South Africa’s largest property portal owned by Naspers, has bought rival Private Property . The deal is likely to come under the close scrutiny of competition authorities as it involves the two biggest property portals in the country. Due to the impact of such an acquisition on the industry, Entegral was interested to find out what the perceived advantages and disadvantages of such a deal would be, both through the eyes of the consumer and the estate agent.   Here are the results from around 250 responses received on a survey done over a 2 day period , mostly from agents and agency owners. While the survey presents a small portion of the market (a ccording to the EAAB's latest annual report there are 19,424 registered agents and agency owners, excluding intern estate agents, in South Africa) , f eedback has been received from well-respected agency owners and agents, and we believe this gives a good indication of the current view of agents.
