Your customer relationship management (CRM) system is one of the most critical applications in your software stack. That’s why it’s critical that it’s updated with new information as soon as possible. Relying on employees to manually enter data slows down the process and also takes up their valuable time. That’s why you need robotic process automation (RPA) to keep your CRM up to date with the most accurate information. Whether you use Salesforce, Microsoft Dynamics, Siebel, or Oracle, or if your CRM is on-premise or in the cloud, RPA takes the repetitive tasks of maintaining your CRM and hands them over to software robots.

With Automate, powerful RPA software from Fortra, integrate your CRM-related workflows and automate tasks to trigger, run, and make sure the information in your CRM is in sync with the rest of your business applications. Saving you valuable time that can be better spent helping your current customers or finding new customers.

We recently hosted a webinar on Why Your CRM System Needs RPA, hosted by Pat Cameron, Director of Automation Technology at Fortra. We’ve pulled out the best examples from her demo for you to put into action. Download a free trial of Automate and follow along to see for yourself how automating your CRM system can bring your most critical business applications together to simplify your processes and save you time.

Connect to Your CRM Through the User Interface

If your CRM system doesn’t have the option to connect directly with a database or an API—don’t worry. You can still connect to Automate through the user interface. Using Automate’s web browser action, you can easily open a browser session, login, and run a report through the user interface.
