Bitrix24 Releases REST API for its Popular Online Collaboration Platform
Alexandria, VA (PRWEB) March 06, 2014 -- "Over 120,000 companies have signed up with Bitrix24 in less than two years. Even though Bitrix24 comes with over 35 different tools, we understand that business logic and workflows vary greatly from company to company. With this new API, custom solutions and integrations for Bitrix24 can be created to address the needs of clients or industry verticals," said Dmitry Valyanov, Bitrix, Inc. President.
The Bitrix24 API is open to all critical parts of the platform, including CRM, social network, tasks, data storage, calendars, notifications, users and departments, and it uses popular scripting languages PHP and JavaScript. Importantly, new web apps created with the help of the API provide users with a list of the data they may use (and change) and ask for permission to do so before they are installed. The oAuth security mechanism makes sure that web apps get access only to the data you have specified and allowed access to.
"Apps for Zoho CRM, Basecamp and Yammer have already been added to our marketplace. We expect that by the end of the year will have integration and migration apps for most, if not all, popular online business tools to be available to Bitrix24 users. But even more importantly, the new API lets Bitrix24 partners create custom and industry specific solutions so they open new markets and offer their clients a much higher value service, - added Mr. Valyanov."
The Bitrix24 partner program, which is open to system integrators and web developers, is 100% free to join and doesn't have any annual fees. In addition to getting access to the Bitrix24 application marketplace and user base, Bitrix24 partners get reseller discounts up to 45%, are allowed to localize Bitrix24 to different languages and get a number of perks from NFR licenses to lead sharing and joint marketing campaigns.
