When It Comes to System Integrations, There Are Plenty of Options
You could:
- Hire a contractor.
- Do it yourself.
- Use “low/no”-code tools like Zapier, Talend, Tray, Integromat, Celigo, Workato, and more.
- Rely on directory tools like ManageEngine, RoboMQ, Adaxes, Tools4ever, Okta, and Onelogin.
Many companies also turn to tool-specific implementors—contractors who specialize in major CRMs like Salesforce or ERPs like Netsuite. These implementors are almost always necessary to make these tools work effectively, yet their significant costs and complexities are often glossed over during the sales process. Implementors add an extra layer of expense and dependency to your system integration, making it a tool + contractor scenario instead of a true solution.
However, most of these options create more problems later. At AutoIDM, there’s a smarter way to handle integrations that saves time, money, and stress.
The Problem with Contracting and Consulting
When you hire a contractor or consultant, they’ll first deliver an integration that works. Over time, however, real-world issues like API updates, network glitches, or new business rules can cause the integration to break. Then you’re back to square one, paying for fixes.
Here’s what typically happens:
- Recurring Costs: You pay again every time something breaks (at a high hourly rate).
- Time-Consuming Fixes: Even minor issues take hours to resolve because the system wasn’t built for easy updates.
- Short-Term Solutions: Contractors often skip long-term fixes in favor of quick patches, creating recurring problems.
This system frustrates you and incentivizes contractors to solve the same issues repeatedly instead of addressing root causes.
Tools vs. Solutions
Tools like directory systems and low/no-code platforms are just that—tools. They’re only part of the equation and require you to invest significant time and money in configuring, maintaining, and troubleshooting them. Without expert implementation, these tools often fail to deliver the seamless experience businesses expect.
At AutoIDM, we don’t just provide tools—we deliver a complete solution.
