API integration

Clientell runs as a Salesforce-native tool. Setup is faster, data stays inside your Salesforce environment, and there is no separate auth or data-residency conversation. Salesloft integrates via API. That means a separate vendor environment, a separate auth flow, and a data-sync layer to monitor. The flexibility is real (multi-CRM, multi-tool) but so is the operational overhead.
