How does the Integration between Kixie and Outreach work?

Aldo Barbagiovanni Aldo Barbagiovanni

Kixie's integration with Outreach CRM allows customers to automatically log their Kixie calls, SMS, call dispositions, and notes to the correct Outreach Prospect record and any associated Deals.

Activity Logging

Kixie syncs Activities at the Prospect level in Outreach.

Phone Call, Disposition, and SMS Activities log as "Notes" in Outreach.

Phone Call Activities are not sent from Kixie to Outreach until the Kixie User logs a Disposition for the call.

Kixie PowerCall

Kixie PowerCall functions as an enhanced, Outreach-driven caller ID, as well as a shortcut into Outreach.

  1. Outreach-driven Caller ID: View the Outreach Prospect that's calling you, and click to open their Prospect page in a new tab
  2. Edit the Outreach Prospect’s basic information while you're on a call, like name and email address
  3. Log your Outreach Dispositions and Purposes from Kixie PowerCall with call notes
