Why Connect Asana to Close?

Task updates in Asana are invisible to the team using Close, leading to duplicated effort and missed deadlines

New team members take longer to onboard because they must learn manual workarounds to keep Asana and Close aligned

Close adds complexity: smaller integration ecosystem than major CRMs means some connections require Zapier rather than native integrations

Client engagement details in Asana and time-tracking data in Close do not align, making billing inaccurate

Student enrolment data in Asana and billing records in Close are managed separately, causing discrepancies

No single source of truth when tasks live in two disconnected tools, so staff second-guess which system has the correct information

Manually copying data between Asana and Close wastes hours every week that could be spent on revenue-generating work

Reporting across Asana and Close requires painful manual exports and spreadsheet merges

How We Help

For Professional Services and Education businesses across Australia, the disconnect between Asana and Close is a daily frustration. Our custom integration bridges your project management and crm & sales systems, ensuring tasks and projects flow seamlessly without manual intervention. On the technical side, Asana uses a REST API with OAuth authentication, and Close authenticates via API key, which our team handles as part of the build.
