SugarCRM has just posted a much-anticipated, much-tested update to its CRM software. Already one of the leading CRM clients in the field, Sugar also has the honorable distinction of sporting the majestic and rare feather of open source in its illustrious and award-laden chapeau. Management for the masses, if you’ll.
Sugar 5.0 includes improved security, the capability to easily create custom modules, an AJAX email client compatible with the POP3 protocol, and hot new dashboarding abilities.
Following the old carpenter’s adage of “measure twice, cut once,” the Sugar CRM software was put through three beta cycles, and was tested over 30,000 times. In other words, if you think you’ve found a bug in the Sugar CRM software, it might be the one that splattered on your glasses as you cruised to work on your Vespa scooter.
SugarCRM is available as a free Community edition, as well as two commercial editions: Professional and Enterprise. Professional costs $275 per user per year; Enterprise costs $449. The Sugar website offers a wealth of demos, both hands-on and hands-off.
