Advanced Permissioning Module

Backstop's Advanced Permissioning Module allows administrative level users to restrict access to specific records, funds or accounts in the system. This added level of control goes beyond standard out-of-the box user permissions, and is mainly used by firms who have very specific information control policies or who need to silo data between their own internal teams.

Outlook® Integration

The Backstop Outlook Add-in allows users to send emails directly from Outlook to Backstop and to convert email attachments to linked and tagged Backstop Documents. Emails sent to Backstop are automatically linked to contacts with matching email addresses or company domains and can also be linked to other Backstop entities from within the Outlook interface.
