Contacts Sync

Your Corporate Directory,Synced to Every Device

Push the right contacts to the right devices, automatically.

Deploy your directory (Microsoft Entra, Google Workspace, Okta) as native contacts on managed devices. Choose which contacts go to which groups, add suppliers, clients or emergency services: everything stays up to date.

Highlights

Stop Managing Contacts by Hand

Without centralized contact sync, every new device means another round of manual entry. Employees can't identify incoming calls, field workers waste time looking up numbers, and outdated contacts lead to missed connections. IT teams need a way to push up-to-date directory data across every managed device, without touching each one.

Automated Directory Sync

Set It and Forget It

Sync your full company directory to managed devices automatically. New hires appear the moment they're added to your directory service. Departing employees are removed without admin intervention.

Granular Deployment

The Right Contacts on the Right Devices

Assign contact sets to specific user groups or device policies. Sync the full directory to HQ staff while pushing only regional contacts to field teams. Every deployment is targeted, no one gets contacts they don't need.

Beyond the Directory

Sync Any Contact, From Any Source

Go beyond your internal directory. Create and deploy custom contact lists, emergency services, key suppliers, client contacts, directly to employee devices. Combine them with your corporate directory for a single, complete address book on every managed phone.

How it works

Up and Running in Four Steps

Deploy contact sync across your fleet with minimal setup.

  1. 01

    Connect Your Directory

    Link your identity provider (SCIM, Entra, Okta, Google Workspace) or use Appaloosa as your directory.

  2. 02

    Configure Your Deployment

    Enable contact sync in your device policies and define which contact sets go to which groups.

  3. 03

    iOS: Zero-Touch Delivery

    Contacts appear in the native Contacts app automatically. Nothing for end users to do.

  4. 04

    Android: One-Tap Activation

    Users launch the sync app once. Updates happen automatically after that.
