Why teams connect InterSystems IRIS and SugarCRM

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

Stacksync mirrors Custom modules, Accounts, Contacts, Leads from SugarCRM into Namespaces, Stored Procedures, Tables, Views in InterSystems IRIS with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in SugarCRM 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

  • Keep contacts and leads aligned with marketing automation for consistent segmentation
  • Consolidate data from an on-premise Sugar deployment into a cloud warehouse for reporting
  • Keep reference data consistent between an IRIS-based clinical or financial application and downstream SaaS tools
  • Write enriched or corrected records from SaaS apps back into IRIS tables for on-platform processing

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to InterSystems IRIS sync onto the matching records in SugarCRM, 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 SugarCRM API, limits, and retries.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in SugarCRM arrive as row changes in InterSystems IRIS, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

What you can sync between InterSystems IRIS and SugarCRM

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

InterSystems IRIS objects SugarCRM objects
Stored Procedures Server-side logic callable over SQL supports controlled writes and transformations. Tasks Follow-ups attached to records across modules.
Tables Relational projections of stored data are the primary read/write surface for SQL-based syncs. Campaigns Marketing efforts tied back to leads and opportunities.
Views SQL views expose curated slices of data for outbound replication. Custom modules Modules built with Module Builder get the same REST endpoints as stock ones.
Schemas Schema organization scopes which tables a sync connection can see. Accounts Company records, the usual join key against ERP customer masters.
Persistent Classes Object-model classes project to tables, so class data is reachable through SQL. Contacts People linked to accounts, synced with marketing and support systems.
Globals The underlying multidimensional storage; typically accessed indirectly via SQL or objects in syncs. Leads Unqualified prospects that convert into contacts and opportunities.
