Riva CRM Integration delivers transparent, always-on, server-side, two-way synchronization of appointments, tasks, notes, phone calls, contacts, leads, and accounts between the leading CRM systems and leading email systems.
Riva CRM Integration is installed once on a server in your environment (physical or virtual). Your Riva administrator has full control over which CRM information is synchronized to your email system. Riva's advanced integration features allow CRM opportunities, support cases, quotes, etc. to be synchronized to your email server and be opened directly from your email client. The Riva AssignTo feature allows you to assign an email to an existing contact, opportunity, support incident, or quote with a simple drag-and-drop from your inbox.
Riva's advanced SmartConvert Drop Folders™ interoperability feature allows you to automatically convert a customer email into a CRM opportunity, service request (case), quote, custom object, or tracked email.

Anywhere, any time access to CRM data – for all desktop and mobile clients
Because Riva provides synchronization directly between the target CRM and email systems, there are no Outlook plug-ins, HCL Notes Windows plug-ins, browser plug-ins, or mobile applications to install on any laptops, desktops, or mobile devices. Enter a task as complete on your mobile device, and that task is marked as completed in your CRM.
Riva CRM Integration is compatible with several major CRM and email systems. Riva provides access to your CRM data from your email client - any time, anywhere!
Types of Riva servers for Office 365, Exchange, Gmail, G Suite, and HCL Notes
- Riva On-Premise: The Riva On-Premise server runs on a server (physical or virtual) in your environment and synchronizes data for multiple users. Multiple sync policies can be created to satisfy the different sync requirements of users based on their role in the organization. Riva On-Premise is recommended for companies that want complete control over the standard and advanced sync functions provided by Riva.
- Riva Cloud (SaaS): Riva Cloud provides Synchronization as a Service (SaaS). With Riva Cloud, there is no software to install or manage in your environment. Riva Cloud is the quickest and easiest way for you to enjoy the benefits of transparent, always-on integration. Riva Cloud is recommended for users and companies that do not want to install and manage the Riva On-Premise server in their environments. Riva Cloud offers four value packages.
- Riva for Developers: Riva for Developers offers a software development kit (SDK) that allows third-party developers and companies to develop custom integrations for proprietary databases and Line-of-Business applications. These target systems use Riva to sync data to customers' email systems and other line-of-business applications. Riva for Developers supports web service communication (RESTful, JSON, SOAP), SQL, and other proprietary interfaces for application integration. For more information, contact us.
