With your Office 365 account, view your Nutshell leads, companies, and people, and bring the power of your CRM right into Outlook.

Have you ever wanted to see all of your sales-related information from Nutshell while working in your Office 365 Outlook inbox? Want to check on your notes from your last phone call before replying to their email, without leaving the page?

Installing the Nutshell add-in for Outlook will provide plenty of useful information about your Companies, People, and Leads from directly within your inbox. There's no need to switch between windows just to see your upcoming tasks, the last activity on a timeline, or the value of your open leads.

FAQ

Why is my add-in blank when I click on certain emails?

Your Outlook add-in may appear blank if Nutshell recognizes the email address of other users on your account.

What if I don't see the Store in Outlook?

Currently, Microsoft's Outlook only supports the use of add-ins for email accounts configured with IMAP, and must be an account hosted in Office 365, or Exchange 2013 or later.

I'm using Outlook on a Mac and don't see Nutshell as an available add-in. Where is it?

If you're using the Outlook for Mac application, you'll find Nutshell CRM under "Admin-managed" add-ins.
