How We Help

Based in Gippsland, Victoria, Clever Ops understands the tools Australian Professional Services and Financial Services businesses depend on. We connect Front to Microsoft Teams with purpose-built integrations that handle conversations and contacts sync reliably at scale. On the technical side, Front uses a REST + Webhook API with bearer authentication, and Microsoft Teams authenticates via OAuth, which our team handles as part of the build.

As your data volume grows, the integration scales with you. No need to hire additional admin staff to keep Front and Microsoft Teams in sync, even as your business doubles.

Custom-Built for Your Workflow

Unlike generic connectors, we build integrations tailored to how your business actually uses Front and Microsoft Teams. Custom field mappings, business rules, and error handling included.

Built-In Error Handling and Alerts
