SuiteCRM

SuiteCRM is a free and open source Customer Relationship Management application for servers. It is written in PHP. Open source CRM is often used as an alternative to proprietary CRM software from major corporations such as HubSpot, Salesforce and Microsoft Dynamics CRM applications. SuiteCRM is a software fork of the popular customer relationship management (CRM) system from SugarCRM. The SuiteCRM project started when SugarCRM decided to stop development of its open-source version.[3] The base SuiteCRM application is built on the last open-source SugarCRM release. SuiteCRM is a greatly extended version of SugarCRM which also contains many additional security fixes that are not available in SugarCRM. It was originally released on October 21, 2013 as version 7.0, and provides upgrade paths for existing SugarCRM users.

SuiteCRM won the BOSSIE Award 2015 and BOSSIE Award 2016 for the world's best Open Source CRM. Infoworld, the curators of the BOSSIE awards stated that "In little more than a year, SuiteCRM has inspired the community and emerged as a new leader in open source CRM." The award had been won by SugarCRM for the previous 8 years.

SuiteCRM has been downloaded more than 800,000 times since the original release. A community of nearly 90,000 developers and collaborators has joined the project.

gollark: It isn't, the VPS just wouldn't fit the nonstatic bits.
gollark: I was planning to achieve useful* georedundancy on my thing by having my VPS update records to point to it in case of outage and having a partial site replica there, but then I realised it would be quite complex for little gain.
gollark: If nobody actually supports it it isn't very relevant that it's been standardized.
gollark: This is a documented usecase for the API so I assume they wouldn't randomly break it.
gollark: The TTL has to be set lower but meh.
