Xledger integrates with 1,000s of marketing-leading applications, leveraging our own OpenAPI. We offer native, custom, and self-serve integrations, dependent on your needs, and you can discuss the most appropriate integration method with our in-house integration consultants.
Our consultants work with your digital transformation team to scope the migration of opening balances and historical data. Data is typically loaded into Xledger’s Demo environment for validation before being imported into the Production environment once accuracy and completion are agreed.
No. During migration, our customers usually choose to import between 3 and 7 years of historical data, but you can choose the exact amount. We recommend cleaning historical data before migration, as this improves project timelines and data accuracy. You can retain data archives for auditing and compliance purposes.
Xledger replaces your integrations with native in-built, or API-based connections with more robust data flow and easier management. Xledger has a multitude of native integrations built into the system, including direct bank and BACs, payment methods, and many others. Learn about our integration solutions here.
Xledger is designed intuitively, and our blended training follows the same approach. Training is supported through live workshops with your nominated consultant and via Xledger UK’s online learning platform, Equip.
