Real-Time Cin7 to ServiceM8 Sync - Purpose-Built for Your Business
Australian Manufacturing businesses rely on both Cin7 and ServiceM8. Our custom one-way integration keeps them in sync, saving your team 8+ hours/week and eliminating data entry errors.
Why Connect Cin7 to ServiceM8?
Cin7 uses a REST API while ServiceM8 uses REST + Webhook, requiring careful middleware to translate data formats between the two platforms
ServiceM8 adds complexity: reporting capabilities are adequate for small businesses but lack the depth needed for multi-location or franchise operations
Online orders in Cin7 and in-store inventory in ServiceM8 are never in sync, frustrating customers
Reporting across Cin7 and ServiceM8 requires painful manual exports and spreadsheet merges
Invoice and payment data is re-entered between Cin7 and ServiceM8 manually, doubling the work and risking GST errors at month-end
New team members take longer to onboard because they must learn manual workarounds to keep Cin7 and ServiceM8 aligned
