Apps Marketplace
We have been developing several add-on apps, adapters, connectors and integration components to help you connect LeadSquared with other IT systems in your eco-system. We have organized them all in Apps Marketplace under APPS menu. Check it out and use the apps that are relevant to you.
Email Sync App
We have launched an Email Sync App in VANADIUM release. The Email Sync App allows you to capture leads and email activities in LeadSquared. It would connect to your email server and synchronize the received and sent emails. Leads which are not present in LeadSquared will be created. Received and sent emails will be posted as activities on respective leads.
You can control which emails are synced and which are not based on domains of senders and recipients, and also keywords in subject and body of the email.

Email Parsing App
The Email Parsing App allows you to capture leads from Lead provides like Classified Portals, Property Portal, Local Search Portals. Example are: CarTrade.com, JustDial.com, Monster.com, CommonFloor.com.
The app reads emails notifications from these providers and creates corresponding Leads in LeadSquared. Note that configuring each Lead Provider needs mapping fields and bit of custom work. You will need to get in touch with our support team to finish the app configuration.
