Talend connectors for FieldAware

I've recently finished development of my Talend connectors for FieldAware and will be posting them to the Talend Exchange. The connectors allow drag-n-drop creation of Talend jobs that can provide easy integration between cloud or premise based services like Salesforce, Microsoft Dynamics CRM, Netsuite, etc. Pretty much anything with a web or database interface can be easily hooked to FieldAware to manage your field service via mobile applications. The connectors support standard CRUD operations as well as list iterations into the stream flow. This was quite a fun project since Talend custom connectors are written in java to generate java when they are used in a job flow. A job flow would be something like taking Salesforce customer and scheduling work thru FieldAware and then returning the information (even before and after photos) to Salesforce. You might even send the invoice information on to Quickbooks. Mobile applications are changing the world and cloud based FieldAware and our integrations are leading the way.
