Iguana supports all communication protocols. If you are looking for a versatile interfacing product that can communicate with everything, then look no further you have found it!
We have built-in support for databases, net protocols, HL7, XML and X12 as well as functions to manipulate files. If you need to run other programs, then you can use os.execute() or io.popen() to run anything you need. We support web services and plugins so you can re-use code that you have already developed. If are doing a new development we strongly recommend using web services instead of plugins. Our wiki includes many examples that use web services, including using SOAP, connecting to Highrise CRM, etc.
