Last weekend I worked on a survey of available CRM tools under a FLOSS license. My full notes are here:
https://titanpad.com/hHhmrGb7uY My ultimate conclusion is that none of the options provide enough of an advantage over sponsors-table (for sponsor contact workflow) and RT (for sponsor invoicing workflow), to be worth trying to make a switch right now, as we're spinning up for the next year. Where a CRM would provide a substantial advantage right now, is in a persistent, searchable record of sponsors from all previous years. So my suggestion is to set up a CRM during the dc15 cycle, and beginning to use it as an archive of past data. (I'm happy to import data from sponsors-table for previous years.) My top preference of the available options was ERPNext (though it would have been koalixcrm, if that codebase was actively maintained). Tryton has some interest (gobby-style client/server, rather than a web interface). Allison (That's email 3 of 3 I promised in the sponsors team meeting earlier this week.) _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list Debconf-team@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
