As a premier UK partner of SugarCRM, the leading provider of commercial open source CRM technology, Bowland Solutions will be taking a stand at one of the most important exhibitions for potential buyers of CRM, to showcase the latest version of Sugar Professional and Sugar Enterprise
John Rice, Sales & Marketing Director of Bowland Solutions notes, "This is an excellent opportunity for ourselves to introduce Sugar CRM to a wider audience, and in showing the latest release of 4.2, clearly illustrate how far SugarCRM has developed in offering organisations an open source, cost-effective and innovative CRM solution. Our partnership with Sugar is something we are very excited about, as we can see the opportunities that exist for organisations, large and small, to adopt this technology and yield many benefits beyond that offered by more traditional on-premise applications. People visiting us on stand will be able to sign up for a free 30-day trial of Sugar Professional, so that they can test it’s full functionality out for themselves."
SugarCRM announced last month that it had doubled its commercial customer base in the last six months, attracting more than 600 paying customers since the first edition of its commercial open source customer relationship (CRM) software was released in September 2004. The achievement demonstrates a rapidly accelerating adoption rate, gives SugarCRM a larger customer base than many proprietary CRM vendors, and marks a new milestone in the acceptance of open source enterprise applications by the business community.
