GreatAmerica Customers Can Now Submit Credit Applications Via ConnectWise

GreatAmerica Financial Services Corporation announced recently it has enhanced its integration with ConnectWise to allow customers to submit credit applications. The new feature will improve front-end efficiency for ConnectWise users.

“GreatAmerica is an exemplar ConnectWise Invent Vendor partner,” said Jeannine Edwards, Director, ConnectWise Platform. “The ConnectWise Platform team worked with GreatAmerica to close identified integration gaps for a tighter tie into our community’s best practice processes. This version of the integration speaks nicely to that, giving users the ability to start the credit approval process right from ConnectWise.”

The new feature allows status tracking of submitted application and streamlines the sales process by empowering users to programmatically capture submissions via open ConnectWise opportunities and send those details to GreatAmerica for credit approval.

“Financing is helping MSPs close more sales at higher margins,” said Greg VanDeWalker, Senior VP and General Manager at GreatAmerica. “By removing obstacles that make financing a challenge, IT Solution Providers can get those bigger sales and higher margins more quickly.”

“Automation is critical to our customers,” said Lori Berry, Director of Vendor Technology at GreatAmerica Financial. “Understanding their processes within ConnectWise give us the opportunity to make financing as simple as possible.”

Current integrations with ConnectWise allow IT Solution Providers to include miscellaneous charges from Managed Services contracts,such as equipment charges and service charges,on GreatAmerica’s monthly invoice. GreatAmerica is also reporting customer delinquency through ConnectWise.
