Why Bullhorn’s Integrated Email Over a Plug-in?

Microsoft Outlook and IBM’s Lotus Notes are often touted as being integrated with other front office systems, at least to some degree. Typically done by configuring off-the-shelf add-ons or developing custom-built applications, these plug-ins are only partial solutions. Plug-ins may automate some processes, but they don’t provide real integration with your front office system.

A plug-in results in two systems (e.g., Outlook and your front-office system) that increase cost and prevent the kind of automation necessary to drive faster placements. Integration from plug-ins is never as strong as with a single platform running off a single, extensive relational database, like Bullhorn’s. Using plug-ins result in an inability to visibly capture all information for a given client record (e.g., emails, tasks, notes, appointments, contact info, documents, etc.) and relating them to each other. Also, plug-ins demand ongoing attention from users and IT staff, since upgrades and other changes to any one of the three components (your email application, your front-office system, and the plug-in) usually means additional maintenance to ensure the system works properly (e.g., reconfigure settings or reinstall a program).
