Infusionsoft Sidebar

Gmail Sync is no longer available. Please use the Email Sync tool that automatically syncs Gmail and Microsoft accounts to your Infusionsoft app.

The power of Infusionsoft, right where you already work. Access your Infusionsoft CRM records, add contacts to marketing campaigns, create or complete tasks and automate back office workflows right from the comfort of your email inbox.


Please Note! Infusionsoft Sidebar is an alternative to the Infusionsoft Sync for Gmail app. It does not currently support Email and Calendar syncing. If you currently need these features, please use Infusionsoft Sync for Gmail for the time being. We will notify customers when Calendar and Email syncing is available in the new Infusionsoft Sidebar, as this is planned for a future iteration.
