Why teams connect Gorgias and IBM Informix

Treat Gorgias like part of your database: its records live in IBM Informix as real tables, and writes in either place sync to the other in seconds.

Product and engineering teams constantly need CRM data, and the CRM API is a poor way to get it: rate limits, pagination, custom objects, and integration code that breaks when an admin renames a field. What they actually want is the data in IBM Informix, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Custom fields, Tickets, Messages, Customers from Gorgias into Tables, Rows, Views, TimeSeries objects in IBM Informix with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Gorgias with validation intact. Go-to-market teams keep working in the CRM, engineers keep working in the database, and neither has to think about the other.

Common use cases

  • Push order, subscription, and shipping data from a production database into Gorgias customer profiles so agents see context without switching tools.
  • Route high-value or churn-risk customers to priority queues by writing scores from a data warehouse into ticket or customer fields.
  • Replicate Informix tables into a cloud warehouse using its change data capture interface for near-real-time reporting.
  • Sync sensor and meter readings stored in Informix TimeSeries structures to analytics platforms.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Gorgias become tables in IBM Informix you can join with application data directly.

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to IBM Informix sync onto the matching records in Gorgias, giving go-to-market teams live product context.

Internal tools without API code

Back-office apps read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Gorgias API, limits, and retries.
