Tulip has debuted its Integration Builder tool and upgraded its Shopify Connector to streamline data flow for global retailers. These tools are designed to help sales associates access actionable information across disparate data sources.

Tulip supports more than 100,000 sales associates across its enterprise client base. The updated Shopify Connector reduces environment setup time for new integrations to just a few hours.
