What factors determine the cost of an integration?

The cost of an integration depends above all on how many systems need to be connected, how they are built and how much data has to travel between them.

The factors in the cost of an integration are few but decisive: the APIs available on the software, the amount and quality of the data, the direction of the flows and your company's specific rules. An initial analysis lets us give each its proper weight and put together a transparent quote. Our team in Cantù, in the province of Como, does this for companies in Como, Brianza, Milan and Lugano.

Systems involved

Connecting only the management system to the website is different from making ERP, CRM and PIM talk together: every extra system adds flows to design and test.

Data and rules

Customer records, price lists, stock levels and product sheets follow different rules. The more elaborate the company's logic, the more work it takes to reproduce it correctly.

Direction of the flows

Publishing data from the management system to the website is simpler than two-way exchange, where conflicts and priorities between sources have to be managed.

Integration projects

Which factors weigh on your project?

Describe your systems to us: we will analyse them together, even if your company is in Milan or Lugano.

Services of interest

The quality of the management system's APIs matters a great deal: if they are documented, complete and stable, the link with the website is straightforward. If they are limited or poorly documented, more analysis is needed, or alternative channels such as exchange files. We check them before quoting, for companies in Como and Brianza.

The recurring costs of an integration cover what keeps it running: hosting the connection services on our own managed servers, monitoring the flows, support and updates when the connected software is upgraded. They are predictable items defined together with the project. Our team in Cantù looks after these services also for companies between Milan and Lugano.

The choice between a ready-made connector or a bespoke integration depends on how far your processes depart from the standard. A connector is quicker to activate but less flexible; a bespoke solution adapts to the company but needs more design. We assess your case together, from Cantù, in the province of Como, for companies as far as Milan and Lugano.

To integrate an ERP without APIs you use alternative routes: periodic file exchange, controlled reading of the database or an intermediate layer that translates the data. Each solution has pros and cons and must be chosen after analysing the software, which our team in Cantù does case by case.

Integration middleware is intermediate software that collects data from the different systems, translates it into a common format and routes it where it is needed. Each system talks to a single central point, which is easier to control: we design it in Cantù for companies in Como and Brianza.
