What you get

Outlook and Your CRM, in Step.

The Whole Mailbox

Sent items and drafts sync too, not just the inbox.

Moves Followed

File a message in another folder and it moves here, rather than appearing twice.

Deletes Followed

Delete a message in Outlook and the copy here goes too.

Stays Connected

Microsoft’s sign-in is refreshed and saved every time, so the mailbox does not drop off.

How it works

Outlook Connected in Three Steps.

1

Connect Your Microsoft Account

Sign in for your own mailbox, or have an admin approve the whole organization in one step.

2

Let the Whole Mailbox Sync

Inbox, sent items and drafts, with each email filed on the lead it belongs to.

3

Keep Working in Outlook

Move or delete a message there and Adoptiv follows, so nothing is filed twice.

Two ways to connect

One Mailbox, or the Whole Company.

Pick the one that fits who is connecting.

Best for one personYour Own Mailbox

Best for a whole companyYour Whole Organization

How the Outlook integration works

An Outlook CRM Integration for the Whole Mailbox.

Adoptiv’s Outlook CRM integration connects your Microsoft 365 mailbox and logs every email with a lead onto their record: inbox, sent items and drafts, not just what arrives. One person can connect their own mailbox, or an admin can connect the whole company at once.

Because the sync runs between Microsoft and Adoptiv rather than inside an Outlook add-in, it is a CRM for new Outlook and classic Outlook alike, on the web and on your phone. Microsoft notifies Adoptiv of changes, and the connection renews itself so it doesn’t drop overnight.

Outlook keeps each message in one folder, and Adoptiv follows that: move a message and its old filing goes, delete it and it goes here too, so nothing is logged twice. Attachments come along, and OneDrive links stay links. Your Outlook calendar and contacts ride on the same connection; see Exchange Sync.

If you are comparing the best CRM for Outlook, check whether it logs the whole mailbox without an add-in and follows moves and deletes. Adoptiv does both, and works as an Office 365 CRM with the business phone system built in, so the emails, calls and texts with each customer sit on one record, read in the CRM email client.

FAQ

Outlook & Microsoft 365 Questions, Answered.

Can my whole company connect at once?

Yes. Connect one mailbox, or connect a whole Microsoft organization with an admin’s approval.

Does it include sent mail?

Yes. Your whole mailbox syncs, including sent items and drafts.

Does it sync my Outlook calendar?

Your Outlook calendar and contacts come through the same Microsoft sign-in, handled by Exchange Sync. Those events are kept in their own store and are not shown on Adoptiv’s calendar screen.

Does Adoptiv work with the new Outlook?

Yes. The sync connects to your Microsoft 365 mailbox directly, so it doesn’t depend on which Outlook app you use.

What is the difference between an Outlook CRM add-in and email sync?

An add-in lives inside Outlook and logs what you click. Email sync connects the mailbox itself and logs every email with a lead automatically, whichever app you read it in.

How do I integrate Outlook with my CRM?

Connect your Microsoft 365 account in Adoptiv. One person can connect their own mailbox, or an admin can approve the whole organization at once.

Does Outlook have a built-in CRM?

Not a full one. Outlook has contacts and a calendar, but no deals, pipelines or call history. Connected to Adoptiv, your Outlook mail is filed on each customer’s record next to the calls.

What happens to email I delete in Outlook?

It is removed from Adoptiv too. Deletions and moves are followed, so a message is never filed twice.
