Why teams connect Apollo.io and Zoho CRM

Run Apollo.io and Zoho CRM side by side with the same accounts and contacts in both, whether they serve different teams or one is replacing the other.

Two CRMs in one company is more common than anyone plans for: an acquisition brings its own system, regions or business units standardize differently, or a migration is under way and both are live. In every case, some of the same companies and people exist in both systems, and every day of manual double entry pushes the copies further apart.

Stacksync syncs Contacts, Accounts, People (database records), Sequences in Apollo.io with Contact, Account, Deal, Task in Zoho CRM in real time and in both directions, with field-level mapping and matching on identifiers you choose. Update a record in either CRM and the other reflects it within seconds.

Common use cases

  • Push CRM opportunity stages back into Apollo so reps see pipeline context while sequencing.
  • Land sequence enrollment status and outcomes in a warehouse for outbound performance reporting.
  • Run Zoho CRM and another CRM in parallel with bi-directional sync during a migration.
  • Push warehouse-computed lead scores and product signals into Zoho CRM fields for rep prioritization.

Post-acquisition consolidation

Keep both CRMs accurate while the merged team decides on a target system, instead of freezing one and losing months of updates.

Migration with a parallel run

When one CRM is replacing the other, run both fully live until cutover, with no snapshot gap and no data freeze.

Divisional or regional split

Where each CRM serves a different team or region, sync just the shared accounts and contacts so handoffs and cross-sell work.
