In today’s fast-paced business world, your CRM needs to be more than a database — it has to talk to your tools. Whether you're managing leads, tracking deals, or handling client onboarding, integrations can turn Monday CRM into your team’s command center.
We’ve rounded up the Top 5 must-have integrations that every business using Monday CRM should set up in 2025.
Gmail Integration – Turn Emails into Action
Connect Gmail to Monday.com and never lose track of a lead conversation again. With the Gmail integration:
Log emails directly to contact items
Trigger automations based on email activity
Create tasks from incoming emails
Send follow-up emails without leaving Monday
Pro Tip: Use AI-generated email templates with Gmail + Monday to auto-personalize replies based on lead status.
Outlook Integration – Centralize Your Communication
If your team lives in Microsoft 365, syncing Outlook is non-negotiable. With Outlook + Monday:
Automatically attach emails to CRM records
View and send Outlook messages from within Monday
Create new items from flagged messages
Track opens, responses, and engagement
It’s the perfect solution for teams who want CRM visibility without leaving their inbox.
Make.com (Integromat) – The Automation Powerhouse
Make.com lets you build custom, no-code scenarios that connect Monday with hundreds of apps. It’s ideal for advanced automations like:
Auto-updating contact statuses from Stripe or PayPal
Sending Slack messages when deals move stages
Syncing lead data from Typeform or Webflow
Triggering AI content generation based on item changes
Use Make.com to create complex, conditional workflows that would otherwise require dev work.
Zapier – Simple Triggers, Fast Connections
Zapier is a go-to for quick and effective automations. It’s great for teams that need:
Form data pushed to Monday from Google Forms or JotForm
CRM records updated from HubSpot or Salesforce
Notifications sent via email or Discord
Leads added to Mailchimp lists automatically
While it’s not as deep as Make.com, Zapier shines for quick wins and easy-to-maintain workflows.
Calendly or Google Calendar – Sync Meetings & Contacts
Integrate your scheduling tools and bring your calendar into your CRM.
Auto-create new CRM items when meetings are booked
Sync attendee info and notes into Monday
Link appointments to contacts or deals
Set reminders or alerts before meetings
Perfect for sales teams, client services, or onboarding managers who want total visibility.
Bonus Tip: Combine Tools for Maximum Power
Many businesses find the sweet spot by combining tools:
Gmail + Make.com = Smart email automation
Zapier + Calendly = Lead capture → CRM update
Outlook + Slack + Monday = Communication and project alerts
The goal? Build an integrated workflow system that reduces data entry, prevents drop-offs, and accelerates action.
Monday CRM is powerful on its own — but with the right integrations, it becomes unstoppable.
If your team is still manually moving data between tools, it's time to level up. Automate it. Sync it. Connect it.
