Overview
This out-of-the-box extension allows you to effectively sync your inventory in Kounta with any Magento store. It automatically updates product and customer data from Kounta cloud to Magento and vise versa.
Based on Kounta's powerful API, the extension works in the background without interfering with normal content creation process. It uses your own personal application in Kounta to create/modify and remove data. The syncronization is two(2) directional. Data updated in Kounta gets updated automatically in Magento and vise versa, data created/modified in Magento gets updated in Kounta.
Nota bene: The data syncronization isn't 100% complete due to limitations of Kounta API. See all limitations in the bottom of this page.
