Why teams connect Outreach and Postgres Heroku

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

Stacksync mirrors Opportunities, Users, Mailboxes, Prospects from Outreach into Schemas, Primary and Unique Keys, JSONB Columns, Sequences in Postgres Heroku with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Outreach 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

  • Suppress prospects across systems when a contact unsubscribes or a customer churns.
  • Enroll leads in sequences automatically by writing sequence-state records when a lead crosses a scoring threshold in the warehouse.
  • Reflect billing and subscription records into the app database so product logic reads local rows
  • Expose CRM objects as Postgres tables the Heroku application can query and join directly

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to Postgres Heroku sync onto the matching records in Outreach, 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 Outreach API, limits, and retries.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Outreach arrive as row changes in Postgres Heroku, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

What you can sync between Outreach and Postgres Heroku

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.

Outreach objects Postgres Heroku objects
Users Seat holders used to resolve ownership on synced records JSONB Columns Semi-structured payloads for nested SaaS objects and metadata.
Mailboxes Connected sending accounts referenced when attributing outbound activity Sequences Generate surrogate keys for rows created by inbound syncs.
Prospects The people being engaged; the main record kept in sync with the CRM Follower Databases Heroku-managed read replicas usable as low-impact sync sources.
Accounts Companies grouping prospects, aligned with CRM account ownership Tables Standard Postgres tables; the primary two-way sync target for app data.
Sequences Multi-step cadences; synced as reference data for enrollment automation Views Read-side projections exposed to outbound syncs.
Sequence states Per-prospect enrollments; writing one adds a prospect to a cadence Materialized Views Precomputed result sets synced outward on refresh.
