Isn’t building a CRM a sort of rite of passage for tech entrepreneur failures?
Not open source ones, since community will just need to fork it in the end
Every company wants a custom CRM or a customized one instead of choosing a CRM that fits the most important features that the company need and adapt the other processes to fit with the stock CRM as much as possible.
Fighting a CRM is a money pit and in the end, it becomes the worst of both worlds (expensive and shitty to use with the company processes)
But my company is special!
You bet it is! It will throw more money at a custom CRM than any other company.
This article sounds a bit like a press release, but the documentation for the tool itself looks good.
“Twenty” seems a little basic so far, but “Salesforce” is such a far-reaching platform it would be hard to compete across the whole landscape. Salesforce’s CRM functionality is a lot easier to copy tho.
Using it, it’s still very early and basic features not working yet. Great potential however
This sounds very non open source to me, it already has a per user price, vc funding, etc. Are you able to take it and host it yourself if you want? Can you fork the code?
It’s GPLv3-licensed and they have some pretty easy documented steps for self hosting. Their github page is linked in the article.The per-user cost is for a hosted solution. Which isn’t to say they’re not going to pull something shitty in the future.
Don’t we have like 4 of them already?
Odoo: am I a joke to you?
