If your team spends half their day copying the same information between different systems, you’re not alone. Most businesses end up with a collection of software that doesn’t talk to each other, your CRM doesn’t know what your accounts system is doing, your inventory software lives in its own world, and someone has to manually bridge all the gaps.
Pixel Fusion fixes that, we connect your systems so that data flows automatically to where it needs to go. No more copying customer details into three different places or manually compiling reports from five different sources.
The result? Your team can focus on actually growing the business instead of playing data entry clerk. The benefits of a data automation strategy create real world results not only for your team but for your business as a whole.
Data automation is about making your software systems talk to each other properly instead of requiring someone to play messenger between them. When a customer places an order, that information should automatically update your accounts, adjust your inventory, and trigger whatever else needs to happen, without anyone having to manually type it in multiple places.
The benefits are obvious once you see it working, fewer mistakes (computers don’t make typos), faster processing (no waiting for someone to get around to updating everything), and your staff can do more valuable work than data shuffling.
Most businesses are surprised by how much time they get back once their systems start working together properly and as all know in business, time is money.
People make mistakes when copying data between systems. It’s inevitable, wrong numbers, missed updates, information entered in the wrong place. Automation copies data exactly as it appears in the source, every time.
When customer details change in your CRM, automation updates everything else that needs to know about it, your accounts system, email platform, support tools. Everyone has the same current information without relying on someone to remember to update everything manually.
We also build in validation rules to your software that can catch problems before they spread, incomplete records, duplicates, or missing required information get flagged automatically.
Any business juggling multiple systems benefits, but it’s especially valuable if you process lots of transactions or customer information, ecommerce businesses use automation to keep inventory levels synced across different sales channels and automatically generate shipping labels when orders come in. Manufacturing companies automate their production reporting and supply chain updates. Healthcare organisations eliminate manual patient record updates and appointment scheduling.
The common thread is volume and repetition, if your team is doing the same tasks repeatedly, automation can probably handle it better and faster.
Most modern business software includes APIs, basically, standardised ways for different systems to connect and share information securely. We can connect most popular CRM platforms, accounting software, ecommerce solutions, and industry specific tools.
For older systems that don’t have APIs, we can often pull data through database connections or file exports, process it automatically, then feed it into your other systems.
We test everything thoroughly and provide monitoring to make sure the automation keeps working properly over time.
When your systems share information automatically, you can have dashboards that show what’s actually happening in your business right now, not what happened last month when someone finally compiles the reports.
Automation can pull information from multiple sources, sales data, customer feedback, inventory levels and financial metrics to give you a complete picture without someone spending days gathering information from different systems.
Real time data means faster responses. Automated inventory tracking can warn you before you run out of stock, or customer service metrics can highlight problems before they become major issues.
Ready to connect your systems so they work together instead of against each other? Let’s discuss how automation can eliminate the repetitive data entry that’s slowing your team down.
