How long does it take to set up 10to8 to Smartsheet integration with Conferbot?
Most organizations complete the entire integration process in under 30 minutes, with the fastest setups taking just 10-12 minutes for basic synchronization. The timeline varies based on complexity factors including the number of fields being mapped, conditional logic requirements, and historical data volume needing synchronization. Conferbot's pre-built templates for 10to8 and Smartsheet accelerate setup by providing optimized starting points for common use cases. For organizations requiring advanced customization or complex business rules, setup might extend to 60-90 minutes, still significantly faster than the days or weeks required for custom-coded integrations. Expert support is available throughout the process to address any configuration challenges.
Can I sync data bi-directionally between 10to8 and Smartsheet?
Yes, Conferbot fully supports bi-directional synchronization between 10to8 and Smartsheet, enabling true workflow integration where changes in either system update the other platform. This capability allows organizations to maintain perfect data consistency across both systems—when appointments update in 10to8, those changes reflect in Smartsheet, and when project status modifies in Smartsheet, those updates can sync back to 10to8 appointment notes or custom fields. The platform provides sophisticated conflict resolution settings that determine how simultaneous updates are handled, with options to prioritize changes based on timestamp, system of origin, or specific field rules. This bi-directional capability creates a cohesive operational environment rather than simple one-way data transfer.
What happens if 10to8 or Smartsheet changes their API?
Conferbot's dedicated integration team continuously monitors API changes for all supported platforms including 10to8 and Smartsheet, implementing necessary updates before they impact customer integrations. When either platform announces API modifications, Conferbot's development team evaluates the changes, updates the integration connectors, and thoroughly tests the new implementation to ensure compatibility. These updates are automatically deployed to all customer integrations without requiring manual intervention or reconfiguration. The platform's abstraction layer minimizes the impact of API changes on working integrations, maintaining stability even when underlying APIs evolve. Customers receive advance notification of significant API changes that might affect functionality, though most updates occur transparently without service interruption.
How secure is the data transfer between 10to8 and Smartsheet?
Conferbot implements enterprise-grade security measures throughout the data transfer process between 10to8 and Smartsheet. All data transmissions are encrypted using TLS 1.2+ protocols, ensuring protection during transit between systems. At rest, data is encrypted using AES-256 encryption when temporarily stored in Conferbot's systems for processing. The platform undergoes regular security audits and maintains SOC 2 Type II compliance, demonstrating adherence to strict security standards. Authentication between systems uses OAuth 2.0 where supported, avoiding the need to store passwords in plain text. Regular security penetration testing identifies and addresses potential vulnerabilities, ensuring robust protection for sensitive appointment and project data throughout the integration process.
Can I customize the integration to match my specific business workflow?
Absolutely—Conferbot provides extensive customization options that enable organizations to tailor the 10to8 to Smartsheet integration to their exact business requirements. Beyond basic field mapping, the platform supports custom data transformations using JavaScript expressions for complex formatting or calculations. Conditional workflows allow different synchronization rules based on appointment characteristics, client categories, or other criteria. Businesses can implement multi-step integration sequences that involve data enrichment, validation, or routing to different Smartsheet sheets based on specific conditions. For unique requirements, webhook triggers can initiate custom actions in other systems, while HTTP request steps enable integration with proprietary APIs. These customization capabilities ensure the integration precisely matches existing business processes rather than forcing workflow changes.
