Software integration is when different software talks to each other. With the integration process, one software can read data from another, write its own data to the other's database, or do both at the same time. Nowadays, there are very good 3rd party software solutions that are completely specialized for a particular field. These solutions improve themselves day by day and are enriched with new functions and modules. Instead of developing such software from scratch or adding those features to your existing software, it may be smarter to make your existing software talk to other software. In this way, you will save time and money (of course, this choice should be made knowing the important problem of being dependent on that software).
Don't Your Softwares Talk to Each Other?
You may need software integration with 3rd party software in many different areas, from accounting to e-mail sending, from CRM applications to payment systems. Apart from this, your own systems may also need to talk to each other, receive or present data. If your own software needs to be integrated (except in special cases), it's probably because you don't have a long-term digital transformation plan. Instant needs have arisen in different periods, and discrete software has been developed using different technologies for each new need. Discrete software turned into a mess of problems after a while. To avoid this situation, you should get Software Consultancy service and make a long-term digitalization plan. For software integration, both systems must be compatible. The ideal condition for integration is that the software has well-documented APIs (Application Programming Interface). If your internal software does not have APIs, it can be very difficult and costly to integrate. In particular, it may be preferable to develop a single, new system from scratch rather than trying to integrate very old infrastructures that do not have APIs.
The infrastructures we use are API-first infrastructures. Thus, our systems can be easily integrated with any 3rd party software during the initial development process or when the need arises. Bank, cargo and accounting system integration on e-commerce sites, social media and e-mail integration on corporate sites, and CRM and ERP integrations in general are the most preferred.
