Access Salesforce, Asana, Jira, and all your favorite apps, directly in your inbox. See how easy it is to get the information you need and keep your apps up-to-date with Front.

Getting back to a customer often means digging through your CRM, meeting notes, and project management apps — not to mention your inbox — for the updates you need. You lose time searching for the latest information, and your customers are left waiting.

That’s why Front integrations bring all the context you need to respond directly into your inbox. It’s quick and easy to access the tools you rely on and make real-time updates to keep your team in the loop.

Front connects with dozens of tools to help you get more done, right from your inbox. Here are some of our customers’ favorites for a little inspiration!

📇 CRMs like Salesforce, Pipedrive, and HubSpot

Log activities and update opportunities without switching between tools. Check deal status, account history, and more, directly in your inbox. Add tasks, notes, or edit account information directly from Front to keep your team — and your pipeline reports — 100% up to date.

💡 Available on Pro and Platform plans

🛠 Project management apps like JIRA, Asana, Trello and GitHub

Easily share feedback, feature requests, and bug reports with your technical team without leaving your inbox. When you create or update tasks from any message, the task will be linked to the message like a tag for one-click access. When you close out that task in your tracking tool, any linked messages re-open automatically for follow up, so it’s easy to close the loop with customers.

💡 Available on Plus, Pro, and Platform plans

⚡️ Zapier to supercharge workflows across apps

Connect Front to hundreds of other software tools with plug-and-play Zaps. They can help you save time on repetitive workflows or get data where you need it. You can save attachment files to Dropbox automatically, create new Google Spreadsheet rows from Front messages, automatically reply to Typeform survey responses, and more.💡 Available on Pro and Platform plans

⚙️ Custom plugins for in-house tools

Need access to data from custom backend systems, databases, or an in-house CRM? Front’s open API makes it easy to develop a custom integration to view customer purchase history, check account status in your backend, or make order changes in real time. We’ve got a few tips for building a Front plugin to help you get started!

💡 Available on Plus, Pro, and Platform plans

Front integrations turn your inbox into your go-to platform for getting work done. And it’s only just begun. There are several AI tools that you can implement on top of Front to analyze your email responses, build bots, automate tasks, and more. Business email is getting smarter — and we think that’s a great thing.
