Concrete5 - Salesforce CRM Integration

Permalink
Hi, has anyone managed to integrate a C5 site with Salesforce CRM?

A client is using this system and has expressed interest in integrating their website with this CRM system. I see that wordpress, drupal and joomla seem to have plugins.

The client hasn't clarified to what extent they wish the C5 site to connect with Salesforce. At the very least it will be contact form submissions.

Just wondered what experience anyone has on this.

Yes, we've built SAML integration before.

There's no add-on because it would always take a bit of custom
configuration and project specific consulting to make it useful. You
should PM me.

Thanks Franz, I will find out exactly what the client requires and may get back to you.

cool.

the big questions get into what data do they actually want to share.
So commonly some exec "wants it" and when you start pressing as to
what that actually means it turns into a 50k sales dashboard project.

Hi Franz,

Did you get anywhere with the Salesforce integration? Essentially we just want to integrate Salesforce forms into our site, and, crucially, pass some data from Google analytics/AdWords into those forms.

That doesn't sound like very deep integration, all you should have to do is
use the custom form or HTML block to pull SF's forms in.
We've done single signon with salesforce and pulled all sorts of data out
of their API for web apps built with concrete5.
Any of that is very doable, none of it is ever going to be easily
shrinkwrapped for our marketplace. Feel free to shoot me a PM if you want
some development help on this project.

Our website (survivalinternational.org) currently in Ruby, is being rebuilt using Concrete5 by a web development company. We will need to integrate it with our supporter database in Salesforce. Being a small charity, our budget is extremely limited. Is this something you might be able to help us with?

Thanks in advance,
