Why teams connect Insightly and MariaDB

Treat Insightly like part of your database: its records live in MariaDB 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 MariaDB, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Custom Fields, Contacts, Organizations, Leads from Insightly into Stored Procedures, Databases (Schemas), Tables, Views in MariaDB with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Insightly 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

  • Deduplicate and align customer records between Insightly and an ERP or invoicing system
  • Two-way sync of Insightly contacts and organizations with a marketing automation platform
  • Keep several MariaDB instances aligned with one system of record across environments
  • Two-way sync between a MariaDB application database and a CRM so both systems hold the same customer records

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Insightly arrive as row changes in MariaDB, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Insightly become tables in MariaDB you can join with application data directly.

Product events onto CRM records

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