Overview

Xorosoft events become emails your customers and vendors actually receive.

When order confirmations, shipping updates, and vendor communications are sent manually or from a disconnected mail client, customers wait longer for updates and vendor documents get lost in someone's personal inbox. The integration sends Xorosoft-triggered emails through Outlook or Microsoft 365, and automatically parses incoming vendor emails and attachments into Xorosoft records. Tap each point to see how.
