Yes, ERP integration experts work with both legacy and modern ERP solutions. Both custom and off-the-shelf solutions can be integrated using APIs, middleware, third-party tools, and other approaches. For a clearer integration plan, contact us for a no-obligation consultation.

The cost depends on several factors, including the number of systems to connect, project complexity, and technical requirements. During a discovery call, you’ll get a clear timeline based on your specific ERP system case.

Timelines vary from a few weeks to several months, depending on complexity. Simple integrations with one or two systems can take weeks, while larger multi-system projects may take a few months.

No. Your business keeps running as usual while integration happens in the background. Your team and customers won’t experience downtime or interruptions.

You don’t risk losing data when integrating your ERP software. Our team creates backups before making any changes and uses secure integration methods. Your data stays safe, protected, and fully confidential throughout the entire process.

This won’t happen at all. The integration solutions are built on top of your existing systems or through secure connection points, without touching the core. API development goes through a testing stage, so your CRM, ERP, eCommerce, or other tools continue working as usual, without downtime or unexpected issues.

Before the project starts, you receive a clear cost estimate and an API strategy based on the number of systems, integration complexity, and business requirements. This helps you understand the API management budget upfront. No hidden costs appear during the process; everything stays transparent and predictable from start to finish.

No, the complexity stays on the technical side. For your team, the process looks like a clear and structured plan with minimal involvement in code or infrastructure. You stay focused on business goals, while the technical side is fully handled.

Absolutely, security is built in from the very beginning. Secure API connections, access control, authentication, and data encryption are used to protect your systems. In addition, all processes follow security standards, and sensitive data is protected at the architecture level.

No, a custom API is not built as a closed system. The architecture is designed so it can be maintained and scaled without dependency on a single provider. You keep full control over your systems and receive complete documentation.

The duration of custom API integration depends on your business needs, the number of systems, and the complexity of the logic. You get a realistic timeline at the start. Simple integrations take a few weeks, while more complex projects may take a few months. The process is structured step by step with clear progress at each stage.

Legacy system integration covers everything involved in connecting your existing legacy systems with modern platforms: discovery and audit, integration architecture, API and middleware design, moving data from legacy sources, testing, and ongoing support — so every system talks cleanly.

Legacy system modernization focuses on the systems themselves: rewriting code, replacing outdated legacy frameworks, or moving applications to modern runtimes. This often means bigger refactors and longer timelines.

Legacy system integration focuses on connections: making older systems exchange data with modern applications through APIs, middleware, or a cloud-based integration platform. You usually keep the legacy system in place and build around it.

Both solve different problems. Modernization changes what the system is. Integration changes what the system can reach. In most projects they happen together — you integrate first to keep the business running, then modernize the parts that truly need it.

Of course! We follow an incremental approach that keeps your legacy systems running while we integrate them with modern applications, one flow at a time. We plan every rollout carefully, validate each integration before moving forward, and keep rollback paths in place.

Cloud-based integration platforms (iPaaS tools like MuleSoft, Boomi, Workato, Azure Integration Services, and AWS AppFlow) are often our starting point, since they come with pre-built connectors and scale well. When legacy systems sit behind firewalls or have strict data residency rules, we pair those tools with on-prem middleware, message queues, or API gateways to keep traffic inside your network where it needs to be.

For hybrid setups, we build one integration layer that spans cloud and on-prem, so your team sees a consistent view of legacy data no matter where it lives. We help you map each workload to the right integration platform based on latency, cost, compliance, and existing vendor commitments.

Integration patterns are the backbone of every successful legacy system integration. We apply proven patterns: point-to-point, publish/subscribe, ESB, API gateways — based on how your legacy and modern systems need to talk. The goal is seamless integration where legacy data flows to modern apps reliably, without brittle workarounds.

Cloud integration services cover everything needed to connect data and applications across cloud and on-premises: discovery and audit, integration architecture, iPaaS setup, connector development, API management, data migration, testing, and ongoing support — so every cloud service and on-premises tool shares data cleanly.

iPaaS is a cloud-based integration platform that lets teams build, deploy, and govern integration flows across cloud and on-premises systems from a single place. iPaaS tools come with pre-built connectors, API management, and monitoring, so you spend less time wiring systems together and more time running the business. Common iPaaS platforms include SAP Integration Suite, MuleSoft, Boomi, Workato, Azure Integration Services, and Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud.

We build one integration layer that spans cloud and on-premises through a hybrid integration setup. Cloud applications connect through iPaaS connectors, while on-premises systems connect through secure agents, message queues, or API gateways that keep traffic inside your network. The result is a single platform where your team sees a consistent view of data and applications no matter where they live.

Sure! We design and implement cloud integration solutions on SAP Integration Suite, as well as other iPaaS tools like MuleSoft, Boomi, Workato, Azure Integration Services, AWS AppFlow, and Oracle Integration. We help map each workload to the right cloud integration platform based on latency, cost, compliance, and existing vendor commitments.

We treat security as part of integration architecture, not an add-on. We isolate sensitive data behind API gateways, encrypt data in transit and at rest, apply role-based access to every integration hub, and route on-premises traffic through secure agents. Govern integration flows are monitored end-to-end so your team can detect issues in real time.

EDI integration services cover everything needed to send and receive EDI documents reliably:

• trading partner audit;
• EDI mapping;
• EDI setup; 
• connection to your ERP and WMS;
• EDI software configuration, testing, and ongoing managed services.

The goal is one EDI integration platform where every EDI document, EDI message, and EDI transaction is processed automatically. 

EDI integration software is the software solution that runs on your side — it sends, receives, and maps EDI documents. Managed EDI services are a service in which an EDI provider runs that software for you, monitors EDI transactions, onboards trading partners, and handles errors. Many businesses combine both: their own EDI integration software behind a company firewall plus a managed services partner for day-to-day operations. 

We support every common type of EDI integration: direct EDI for high-volume trading partners, web EDI for partners with low transaction volume, mobile EDI for field teams, managed EDI services for fully outsourced setups, and EDI via integration platform as a service for cloud-based integration. We help you choose an EDI provider and integration platform based on your trading partners, transaction volumes, and EDI requirements. 

Our EDI experts map every EDI message between your internal data flow and the EDI format expected by each trading partner. We support standard EDI formats and tailor mapping to each partner’s requirements, so the exchange of EDI documents stays seamless even as your EDI environment grows. 

Sure thing! If your business is new to EDI, we plan EDI implementation end-to-end: choosing the right EDI software, setting up your EDI infrastructure, mapping your first EDI documents with trading partners, and connecting EDI data to your ERP. Once your EDI program is live, we move into managed services so the team can focus on the business while EDI keeps running. 

Business process automation services cover the full path from idea to live automation: process discovery, picking the right BPA tools, building RPA bots and workflows, plugging into your software applications, testing, and ongoing managed services. The point is to land in one place where the repetitive work — tasks, approvals, data flows — just runs on its own. 

RPA, or robotic process automation, is one piece of BPA. RPA bots handle the rules-based, repetitive work across your software applications. BPA is broader: it also covers business process management, workflow automation, intelligent process automation, and the design of the whole process, not just the individual tasks inside it. 

Start with high-volume, rules-based work where data entry, approvals, or handoffs are slowing the business down. Invoice processing, order management, customer onboarding, and reporting are usually the first wins. Before any BPA tool gets deployed, we help you find the automation opportunities and rank them by business value. 

We support every common type of business process automation: robotic process automation (RPA), workflow automation, intelligent process automation, digital process automation, marketing and sales automation, and end-to-end process orchestration. We pick the automation platforms and BPA tools that fit both your needs and your trading partners‘ requirements. 

Yes, we do. After go-live we keep an eye on the automated processes, handle exceptions, tune workflows when business requirements change, and roll out improvements. That way the automation keeps paying off long after launch. 

The time needed to integrate your CRM depends on the number of systems involved and the complexity of your data flows. A single integration, for example, CRM to ecommerce, can take 4 to 8 weeks. At the same time, multi-system integrations with data migration typically run 3 to 6 months. If you want to assess the exact timeline for your project — contact Forbytes, we provide a custom integration project estimate after the discovery phase. 

Not necessarily. The first step of the CRM system integration is assessing your current CRM first. If it fits your scale and use case, the development team integrates it with your existing stack. If itdoesn’t, the partner helps you select a better fit and migrate without losing historical data. 

Not at all. Software development companies integrate a CRM in parallel with your live systems and test everything before switching over. Your team keeps working while engineers build. Go-livehappens in a controlled, staged rollout. 

We follow GDPR requirements throughout the data migration process. Customer consent records move with the data, and we document every step of the transfer for compliance purposes. 

At Forbytes, we monitor data flows, sync performance, and system stability after launch. If you add new tools or scale your operations, we extend the integration capabilities to cover themwithout rebuilding what’s already working. 

Not necessarily. While high-level guidance from your team is always a plus, our engineers are experts at mapping system dependencies, data flows, and potential bottlenecks during the consulting stage. You won’t need to spend weeks cataloging every internal process. We handle the technical discovery and build a clear integration project roadmap based on what we find on the ground. 

We look for those compatibility roadblocks long before any code is actually written. If you’re running a legacy system that doesn’t have a native way to talk to other apps, we don’tjust hit a wall. Instead, we look at practical workarounds, things like custom API bridges, integration platforms, middleware layers, or even a phased update path. The goal is to get your data moving without forcing you into a massive, risky overhaul of systems that are otherwise working fine for your team.

We don’t just disappear and come back with a finished product. You’ll always have a clear look at what’s happening through shared docs, live trackers, and regular checkpoints. While our team handles the heavy lifting on the backend, you’re still the one calling the shots. You stay in the driver’s seat when it comes to setting priorities, approving timelines, and giving the green light on each phase of the rollout.

No. The system integration is built on a model that doesn’t add to your team’s daily workload. We take full ownership of the system mapping, the architecture design, the testing, and the ongoing monitoring of each system. This lets your internal team stay locked in on their core management goals. Your involvement is really just about high-level strategic alignment and the final green light; we handle the end-to-end execution. 

Absolutely. In our system integration projects, we prioritize a modular and scalable architecture, making future additions low-risk and straightforward. Because each integration is built as a standalone, connectable module, your ecosystem can grow or change without compromising the stability of your existing setup. 

Security is built into our system integration solutions from day one. We use encrypted connections and strict role-based access to keep your data safe, whether it’s moving between apps or sitting in a database. We also map our process to whatever specific regulations or compliance rules you have to follow. The goal is to make sure every connection we build is locked down and meets the internal and market standards without exception.
