Lead-to-account matching and routing enables businesses to gain a more comprehensive picture of leads and engagement within their account-based strategy, as well as follow up with captured leads at a quicker rate.

While most customer relationship management (CRM) software provide the basic functionality for lead-to-account matching and routing, specific lead-to-account matching and routing solutions help with more complex workflows that can't be maintained in CRM or marketing automation solutions. This type of software is often used by sales development representatives and account executives who might otherwise spend countless hours routing leads to the correct individuals and accounts.

Alongside saving time and valuable resources from manually matching and routing leads, lead-to-account matching and routing software also allows businesses to have cleaner and more accurate data within their CRM. This type of software automatically identifies repetitive data, which eliminates any duplicate leads found within the CRM.

Lead-to-account matching and routing software is often used alongside other workflow management solutions such as account data management software and marketing automation software.
