From leads to emails, our custom Close to Google Workspace integration maps your data precisely. Harvard-educated experts handle the build so your team stays focused on growth.
Why Connect Close to Google Workspace?
New team members take longer to onboard because they must learn manual workarounds to keep Close and Google Workspace aligned
Manually copying data between Close and Google Workspace wastes hours every week that could be spent on revenue-generating work
Client engagement details in Close and time-tracking data in Google Workspace do not align, making billing inaccurate
Property listing data in Close and CRM records in Google Workspace drift apart, causing agent confusion
Task updates in Close are invisible to the team using Google Workspace, leading to duplicated effort and missed deadlines
No single source of truth when contacts live in two disconnected tools, so staff second-guess which system has the correct information
Close uses a REST + Webhook API while Google Workspace uses REST, requiring careful middleware to translate data formats between the two platforms
Reporting across Close and Google Workspace requires painful manual exports and spreadsheet merges
