Do Lead Provider API Connections Force a CRM Purchase After DMS?
Lead provider API connections do not force a CRM purchase after DMS. RouteOne's Connection Hub lists Lead Provider, Customer Relationship Manager (CRM), and Dealer Management System (DMS) as separate Dealer Service Provider types, so an API or connection path to a lead provider does not inherently require a CRM PO after DMS.
