Has anyone integrated multiple SFDC instances to one Marketo?

Just curious as to your experience here and what i need to know.

Also, what middleware did you use to do it?

This is very interesting. Josh Hill​ have you worked with Boomi before/know someone that has?

[Josh_Hill13]

I work with people who use Boomi and Talend. Best to ask an agency for assistance if you don't have that in house.

Thanks!

Hi all,

I'm also looking for a way to integrate more than one SFDC with Marketo. It looks like a Middleware option is the way to go. Is anyone using this method currently? What Middleware option do you use?

I see that Josh mentioned Boomi, how does this tool work?

Thank you,

Carla

Hey Jamie - I came across your post and wanted to see which middleware you ended up going with for this project?  Thanks!

Officially, Marketo can only be synced to 1 org.

So I suspect you know this because you mentioned middleware. I suppose you could use Boomi or other tools to somehow accomplish this or via an MDW.

What's your use case? Why do you want to do this?

I have a customer with several instances of Salesforce, and they would like to sync each SFDC instance with one workspace in Marketo.  I have heard that there are a few customers who do this, so was wondering how they did it.

[Josh_Hill13]

Dunno, haven't heard of anyone doing this actually. I have heard of people merging Marketos and SFDC orgs during mergers. Usually they pick one Org and its Marketo to go with and merge the other SFDCs to that surviving SFDC org.

Second this. That's what I've seen done in the past too.

Thanks again, I will look into the MiddleWare option.  I also have heard that this can be done on the Marketo side with a webhook strategy

[Alok_Ramsisaria]

You can use a Middleware like Josh mentioned. You can also use the webhook and API approach. However, the 2nd approach will not allow you to fetch all the details from MKTO.

And it will have issues scaling too should your instance change drastically.

OK, thanks.  Looks like the middleware route is the best way to proceed.
