How we build
Production-grade.
Not Zapier in a trench coat.
Every AroFlo integration we ship handles failure properly: idempotent jobs, retry logic, dead-letter queues for unrecoverable cases, and observability so you can see exactly where data is at any moment.
Tested
Real test suite, real edge cases. Not just "it worked once."
Observable
You see what is happening — events logged, errors surfaced.
Maintainable
Documented, version-controlled, handed over properly.

FAQ
Common questions about AroFlo integration.
Does AroFlo have an API for custom integrations?
Yes — AroFlo exposes an API for the integration patterns we typically build, including custom compliance workflows and customer portals.
Can AroFlo handle digital compliance for state regulators?
AroFlo can store compliance forms but state-specific regulator workflows with audit trails usually need custom engineering on top of AroFlo data.
How does AroFlo compare to simPRO?
AroFlo is particularly strong for HVAC and plumbing trades; simPRO is broader across multi-trade businesses. Both are mature Australian platforms with decent APIs.
