Connect Autotask and Keap to eliminate manual data entry and boost client retention
Automate the flow of client info, service tickets, and follow-ups between your PSA and CRM to keep your team aligned and your clients happy.
Overview
Summary
Connecting Autotask and Keap unlocks seamless workflows that bridge project management with customer relationship automation. Whether you're a managed service provider or IT consultant, this integration ensures every client interaction in Autotask triggers the right follow-up in Keap — and vice versa. As part of Autotask integrations, this connection is one of the most powerful ways to reduce admin overhead and keep your sales and support teams on the same page.
Why integrate Autotask with Keap?
Benefits
Manual data entry between Autotask and Keap leads to delays, errors, and missed opportunities. When a ticket is closed in Autotask, you want the client automatically tagged in Keap for a satisfaction survey or upsell sequence. When a lead converts in Keap, you want their info instantly synced into a new Autotask project. This integration eliminates those silos, giving your team real-time visibility into client journeys while freeing up hours each week for higher-value work.
Marketing and sales teams benefit from automated nurturing based on service activity, while support teams gain context from past interactions without switching platforms. The result? Faster response times, improved client satisfaction, and increased revenue from smarter, data-driven follow-ups.
Use cases that actually matter
Real-world
Auto-notify clients after ticket closure
When a support ticket is marked “Resolved” in Autotask, trigger a personalized email sequence in Keap with a NPS survey and related service recommendations.
Sync Keap leads to Autotask projects
New leads in Keap with a “Service Inquiry” tag automatically create a new project in Autotask with predefined tasks, assigned to the right technician.
Update Google Sheets with Autotask service data
Every time a recurring service plan is renewed in Autotask, log the date, client name, and amount into a Google Sheet for finance reporting — powered by Autotask Google Sheets integrations.
💡 Pro Tip: Use custom fields in both Autotask and Keap to map service tiers, contract lengths, or client tiers — this lets your automation trigger smarter, more personalized workflows based on client value.
Step-by-step setup
No code
Workflow
Start by connecting your Autotask account to Keap through Autotask ConnectWise integrations, then choose “Ticket Updated” as the trigger and “Create Contact” as the action.
Map key fields like client name, email, ticket status, and service category between the two apps — set filters so only resolved tickets trigger contact creation.
Enable the automation, test it with a sample ticket, then expand it to include follow-up tasks like adding tags, assigning campaigns, or sending SMS reminders.
Advanced automation ideas
Build multi-step workflows that trigger when a client has three unresolved tickets in 30 days — auto-send a retention email in Keap and create a “High-Risk Client” alert in Autotask. Or, combine this integration with calendar tools to auto-schedule check-in calls in Keap after every major service completion in Autotask.
