Looking for CRM for New Company
-
@scottalanmiller Yes, the new release will fix a lot of bugs. But with that said, we don't really encounter the bugs that are being fixed. It is a solid product, with a good community backing it. It is also VERY customizable. We've already ripped apart some areas and customized it exactly how we want it.
SO MUCH BETTER than Dynamics.

Not to mention, the interface is polished and looks great IMO. Our one developer loves it because he can customize it so much and get directly into the DB if necessary.

Well, duh.
And, we're saving $$$ compared to Dynamics. Win/Win.

Wait you dont enjoy spending hours upon hours trying to do simple tasks in Dynamics? You dont enjoy setting up simple workflows in 20 hours? Dont like ie only and ActiveX requirements?

You have no idea how many projects I want to do with my home lab! It keeps growing and growing.

@fuznutz04 Have you added any extensions to your install? Anything you find so useful you couldn't imagine not having it?
-
Do any of you bother with support contracts for SuiteCRM?
-
Also (naive question incoming) what spec machine would you run it on? Can they grow to a fair size?

Zurmo is only good cause it is super simple. But the gameification of it is annoying. And again it is super simple.

1 vCPU / 768MB is normally more than enough.

I have ours with 1vcpu and 1024mb ram. If multiple people are on it, it uses a good portion of that, but I never notice a slowdown at all. Disk usage is next to nothing, as we don't really store anything other than text and some pdfs on it.

We don't.

Not really. We just use it right now vanilla. We use it for tracking prospects, clients, bids, etc. right now we use it purely as a sales tool, but it is so much more than that, and we are looking to expand our use of it. We use such a small piece of it. There is also a nice outlook adding which you can pay for, which supports the project.

We don't.
We haven't with any CRMs in the past.
