Sales & CRM

Keep records in sync across silos

The classic silo problem: three systems that each think they're the customer database, and a person keeping them agreeing with each other.

How it happens today

  • ×A deal closes in the CRM. Someone re-types the customer into the billing system, then into the support tool, then into the internal app.
  • ×A phone number changes in one system and stays wrong in the other two for months.
  • ×Nobody can say with confidence which system is right, so people check two of them before calling anyone.
  • ×The integration everyone keeps asking for never gets prioritised, because it's a week of developer time for an unglamorous problem.

The task that replaces it

A scheduled sweep that treats one system as the source of truth, pushes changes outward, and reports genuine conflicts instead of silently picking a winner.

What changes

  • One system becomes the source of truth in practice, not just in theory. The sync enforces the decision that everyone already agreed to and then quietly ignored.
  • Conflicts get surfaced instead of buried. The two records that genuinely disagree land on someone's desk; the fifteen that don't are just handled.
  • No integration project. It works through the same screens your team uses, so it doesn't need an API a vendor hasn't built.

Questions on this one

Isn't this what an integration platform does?
When both systems have good APIs and a connector exists, yes — and you should probably use it. TaskMate is for the cases where one of them doesn't: an internal app, a legacy system, a vendor portal with no API at all.
What stops it from overwriting good data with bad?
The direction is explicit, and the first runs are read-only by design. You see the list of proposed changes before anything is written.
