Teams that run on Google Workspace should not have to change how they work to keep a CRM up to date. CubeCRM connects to Gmail, Google Calendar and Google Contacts so that customer emails file themselves, meetings appear on the customer timeline and contacts stay in step with the address book on everybody’s phone. Staff sign in with their Google accounts, and access ends when the Google account is suspended.

How it behaves
The detail that decides whether it is actually useful
Automatic filing
Emails matched to customers by address, with no extension to install and no button to press.
Private stays private
Only customer email is filed, internal domains are excluded and individuals can mark messages private.
Contacts on every phone
CRM contacts appear in Google Contacts, so incoming calls show the right name on Android and iPhone.
Google sign-in
One less password, and suspending a Google account removes CRM access immediately.
Setting it up
Three steps, done during setup
- 1
Authorise CubeCRM for your Google Workspace domain through Google’s standard consent flow.
- 2
Agree filing rules for mailboxes, excluded domains and private messages during discovery.
- 3
Connect users and sync a period of recent history so customer timelines start populated.
