Why teams connect Nutshell and Shopify

Run Nutshell and Shopify side by side with the same accounts and contacts in both, whether they serve different teams or one is replacing the other.

Two CRMs in one company is more common than anyone plans for: an acquisition brings its own system, regions or business units standardize differently, or a migration is under way and both are live. In every case, some of the same companies and people exist in both systems, and every day of manual double entry pushes the copies further apart.

Stacksync syncs Users, Leads, People, Companies in Nutshell with Customers, Abandoned Checkouts, Products, ProductMedias in Shopify in real time and in both directions, with field-level mapping and matching on identifiers you choose. Update a record in either CRM and the other reflects it within seconds.

Common use cases

  • 01 Push closed-won leads to accounting software to trigger invoicing automatically.
  • 02 Keep People and Companies consistent between Nutshell and email marketing or outreach tools.
  • 03 Sync orders, customers, and inventory into Postgres for operational reporting across stores.
  • 04 Keep customer records aligned between Shopify and a CRM for segmentation and lifetime-value analysis.

Common sync patterns

Post-acquisition consolidation

Keep both CRMs accurate while the merged team decides on a target system, instead of freezing one and losing months of updates.

Migration with a parallel run

When one CRM is replacing the other, run both fully live until cutover, with no snapshot gap and no data freeze.

Divisional or regional split

Where each CRM serves a different team or region, sync just the shared accounts and contacts so handoffs and cross-sell work.
