23. Integration Appreciation
Since our CRM / Marketing Automation
integration is so mission-critical to our
organization, we wanted to be certain to
work with people who know NetSuite and
How to integrate with it.
In 4Thought Marketing we found real integration
“pros,” equally adept at both the high-level strategic
perspective, and technical decisions. They were easy to
work with, had a clear, sensible process, and our Eloqua /
NetSuite integration ran smoothly from almost the minute
we turned it on.
