Setting up the Outlook Connector

What if there was a way you can keep using Outlook while synchronizing records to SugarCRM?

Sugar's Enhanced Plug-in for Outlook allows you to archive emails to Sugar, synchronize contacts, meetings, calls, and tasks, as well as create new Sugar records. The plug-in is available with all commercial editions of Sugar and must be installed on each computer running Outlook where the plug-in is desired.

1. Installing the SugarCRM Outlook Connector
2. SugarCRM Setup and Authentication within Outlook
3. Outlook Connector Settings
4. Archive Email and Sync Calendar
5. Creating Records from Outlook into SugarCRM
