SANTA CLARA, Calif., Jan. 18, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- For Lincoln Financial Group, a Fortune 250 company, data and effective CRM play a vital role in its day-to-day efforts to provide individual and business clients with the right insurance and financial and retirement plans.

With offices around the country, the company needs to ensure that data integration between the cloud-based Salesforce application and local systems is done in both a timely and cost-effective manner.

Rather than doing this within Salesforce—and dealing with the security and other challenges inherent with integrating within cloud-based CRM solutions, Lincoln Financial Group turned to Sesame Software and its Relational Junction suite of SQL-based tools to do bi-directional integration outside the application.

"Integration would not be possible without Relational Junction because we couldn't go directly to the cloud from our local systems due to security and other issues," says Ramakrishna Prasad, Analyst-Group Protection IT with Lincoln Financial Group. "It's really made it possible to integrate downstream to our local systems—and then integrate that with the cloud, the host application."

Relational Junction replication and integration tools work seamlessly with Salesforce and local database storage. Sesame Software also features a world-class support team that Ramakrishna says has offered prompt and expert solutions to the rare issues that come up.

"We do have a backup of everything that's in the cloud on our local database," Prasad says. "But, more importantly, we need a copy of the local database so we can integrate with all our local systems. Relational Junction serves our purpose very well."
