Not scary news about your website, Salesforce, and new Pardot functionality
Augment your website with data from Salesforce
Do you need, or maybe want, to use data that lives in Salesforce as content on your website? If your site uses an open source Content Management System (CMS) like WordPress, Drupal, or Joomla, you’re in luck! Fíonta has developed a tool called Baja that:
- Displays and/or syncs Salesforce data with a website
- Lives independently of Salesforce and a website, eliminating common integration headaches
- Can be maintained and modified inexpensively, at any time
With Baja, you could display events (which “live” in Salesforce) on your website and allow users to search and filter as if they were content within the CMS. Or, you may wish to allow your supporters to log into a members-only area of your website, update their contact information, and enable that updated contact information to automatically sync back to Salesforce.
