Integrations
The Beacon platform is designed for interoperability and can easily integrate with many systems and technology products already in use within the life science industry.
Beacon will implement independently and/or effectively complement existing tools and platforms that are already in place including in-house systems. Professional service support is available to help make this process as smooth and seamless as possible.
For smaller companies, Beacon is often implemented on a stand-alone basis which allows for a quick start while providing room for future growth.
CMS: As a common integration, Beacon easily connects to content management and approval systems like Veeva Vault MedComms and Veeva Vault PromoMats. Approved content can be synched automatically from these platforms to Beacon at whatever frequency is required.
CRM: Beacon provides both quantitative and qualitative meeting data from our platform to the appropriate HCP record in CRM. Beacon can also pull in relevant data from CRM to assist in pre-call planning so that MSLs can initiate, manage and record a meeting all in Beacon as the preferred interface.
Data Analytics: In addition to CRM, through integration, Beacon automatically exports various meeting metrics and reporting data to 3rd party business analytics tools like Qlik Sense, MicroStrategy and others.
