Why teams connect IBM Informix and Infor CRM

Treat Infor CRM 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 Accounts, Contacts, Leads, Opportunities from Infor CRM into Logical logs, Databases, Tables, Rows in IBM Informix with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Infor CRM 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

  • Run a two-way sync between Infor CRM accounts and contacts and a Postgres database so internal tools read CRM data with SQL.
  • Keep Infor CRM aligned with an Infor ERP customer master so sales and finance share one account record.
  • 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.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Infor CRM arrive as row changes in IBM Informix, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Infor CRM 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 Infor CRM, giving go-to-market teams live product context.
