What iPaaS is
iPaaS (Integration Platform as a Service) is a cloud platform to build, run and monitor integrations between applications (ERP, CRM, WMS, e-commerce, couriers) with no own infrastructure. It offers ready-made connectors, data transformations and flow orchestration.
What it solves
- Removes fragile, hard-to-maintain point-to-point integrations
- Centralises monitoring and error handling
- Speeds up connecting a new application (reusable connector)
Typical components
- Connectors (API, EDI, files, databases)
- Data mapping and transformation
- Orchestration, queues, retry, alerting
How CRMconnect helps
CRMconnect acts as an integration layer (iPaaS) for the operational ecosystem: it connects ERPs, couriers, marketplaces and EDI partners through a unified set of connectors and monitored flows, instead of dozens of isolated integrations.
Πραγματικό παράδειγμα
A company had 14 ad-hoc point-to-point integrations, impossible to maintain. After consolidating on the CRMconnect integration layer, flows became centralised and monitored, and adding a new courier dropped from weeks to days.

Συχνές ερωτήσεις
Difference between iPaaS and a simple connector?+
A connector links two applications; iPaaS is the platform managing all integrations - connectors, transformations, orchestration, monitoring and error handling - from one place.
Does iPaaS replace EDI?+
No, it includes it. EDI is one integration type (standardised partner documents); iPaaS orchestrates EDI alongside APIs, files and databases in a unified layer.
