From Integration Chaos to Connected Practice

Your Practice Management Journey

You Started with Excel
Every advisor begins the same way: Excel for client lists, portfolio tracking, CPD records, everything.

Then You Added More Systems

CRM Software
XPLAN, AtWork or Elite Wealth for client management

Compliance Platform

Yet another subscription

Now You're Stuck Paying for Everything
4-6 different subscriptions. Data scattered everywhere. Nothing talks to each other.

The Daily Reality You're Living
  • Form Collection Frustrations: Client onboarding forms that never connect to your CRM system.
  • Manual Data Entry: Copying identical client information across four different platforms repeatedly.
  • Integration Failures: Forms refuses to talk to XPLAN; XPLAN won't sync with compliance.
  • Training Fatigue: Learning complex new systems while trying to maintain client service.
  • Compliance Anxiety: Constantly worrying about missed deadlines across scattered platforms.
Hours of admin work that should take minutes. Every. Single. Day.
What if you'd chosen SmartSuite instead of Excel from day one?

"The integration nightmare is over. Client forms auto-populate everything. No more copying data between XPLAN, Masthead, and Excel. I finally have one system that actually works together."
— Sarah M, Independent Financial Advisor, Cape Town
Two Paths Forward
Path 1: Continue Integration Hell
