About Insightly

Insightly is a CRM platform designed to help businesses manage their customer interactions, sales processes, and project management. It provides tools for tracking leads, managing contacts, and automating marketing campaigns.

  • Identity synchronization

  • Provisioning  

    Provision and modify users' account attributes across enterprise applications based on their profile changes in Insightly. Provisioning and orchestration eases onboarding and life cycle management, boosting productivity and efficiency

Provisioning features supported

  • Modify users: Modify users' account attributes in Inisghtly as and when their profiles get modified in Identity360.
