Why teams connect Close and Nutshell

Run Close and Nutshell 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 Custom Activities, Custom Fields, Users, Smart Views in Close with Companies, Activities, Tasks, Notes in Nutshell 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

  • Sync Close leads and opportunities into Postgres or a warehouse for pipeline reporting outside Close's built-in reports.
  • Two-way sync between Close and a billing or ERP system so closed-won opportunities create customers and invoices automatically.
  • Keep People and Companies consistent between Nutshell and email marketing or outreach tools.
  • Write subscription or product data from internal systems into Nutshell so reps see account context.

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.

Where both track pipeline: deal visibility across systems

Deal stage and value on shared accounts stay visible from either CRM.
