Bitrix24 is a powerful business management platform that covers CRM, communications, document management, and analytics. However, even such a wide range of tools does not always meet the specific needs of a company. This is where local applications come to the rescue – solutions that turn Bitrix24 into a tool that is maximally adapted to your business.
What are local applications?
Local applications are additional modules that integrate with Bitrix24 and expand its capabilities. They can work in both the cloud version and the on-premise edition, and for server installations, they can even become part of the standard functionality.
Typical examples of local applications:
- Business process automation: from application processing to project management.
- Work with customers: contact database, interaction history, personalized scenarios.
- Internal communication: document exchange, joint tasks, corporate chats.
- Document management: contract generation, version control, file collaboration.
- Analytics and reporting: dashboards, forecasting, business development planning.
Main advantages of local applications
- Customization: solutions are created for your company’s specific processes.
- Functionality expansion: new tools that are not in the standard package.
- Integration: the ability to connect Bitrix24 with other systems and services.
- Scalability: Applications easily adapt to business growth.
- Security: Data remains on your servers or in a secure cloud.
Case study
One of our developers created a comprehensive application for the sales department, which consisted of several modules:
- checking the correctness of transactions;
- sending for revision;
- automatic document generation;
- integration with ShipStation for creating labels and calculating shipping costs;
- dashboard with transaction statistics.
The result is that managers spend less time on routine operations, and the productivity of the sales department has increased significantly.
Potential challenges
When creating local applications, it is important to consider:
- correct connection and use of the https protocol;
- correct distribution of access rights;
- testing integrations with other services.
