Client Background
- Client: A leading IT firm in the USA

The Problem
The client needed seamless integration between Asana (used for task management) and HubSpot (used for CRM and communication tracking). Manual syncing between the two platforms led to data inconsistencies and operational delays. Additionally, the client wanted to connect their WhatsApp line for centralized communication through Front.io and HubSpot.
Our Solution
We designed and implemented a custom ETL solution that connects Asana and HubSpot via APIs to enable two-way synchronization. This allows tasks and project details updated in one platform to reflect instantly in the other. We also enabled WhatsApp communication to be managed through HubSpot using Front.io integration.
