SuiteCRM

[girish]

(Matthias also said) Ah yes, that was me. Additional note: If you migrate an existing installation, make sure to enable LDAP login on every user (in advanced settings) and of course check "Auto Create Users" in password settings, that should get you going.

Anyone made any progress packaging this up?

[girish]

Yes, @doodlemania2
https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/suitecrm-app is in decent shape. Still requires some finishing touches (https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/suitecrm-app/issues). You can test it out!

@girish
Have you added the imap support in the container? I have installet SuiteCRM in an LAMP Container but i cannot acces IMAP. Missing addon ?

[girish]

Yeah, the IMAP support is not added yet. I will try to fix it up - https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/suitecrm-app/issues/2

[Benoit]

Very interested by this app. I try EspoCRM at the moment and i'm not very happy with its design. Do you think it will be available soon ? Thanks @girish for your amazing work.

[girish]

Currently, we are a bit tied with Cloudron 3.3. We will get this out immediately after.

[Benoit]

Thanks Girish. take your time.

[darkben]

hi, @girish do you think you can add SuiteCRM in Cloudron soon ? Thanks !

Any more thoughts on this?

I'm looking at the Mautic integrations and this is the only reasonable FOSS options I can see (SugarCRM integrations should work as that's what it used to be).

Or any other CRM recommendations welcome. Maybe Odoo or ERPNext would cover this need?

EspoCRM seems to have a big leap in costs for some of the paid features, which might be a bit much for some users.

[girish]

Last we tried it, SugarCRM is a real pain to package The module system does not like symlinks and thus makes it tricky to upgrade. That said, we will do whatever is required on platform side to get popular apps...

[marcusquinn]

@girish Fair enough. Last time I tested it, it was SugarCRM and it was pretty flexible because the admin made almost everything customisable — but I haven't tested since, so couldn't say if it's "the best" FOSS CRM. I think it will work well enough for most though, and does have that long history so a few other apps do offer integration with it.

Although, every popular app you have is another community of users that are self-hosting that app that will then find the advantages of Cloudron consolidation and standardisation of dev-ops & sys admin.

@girish I'm trying to set up LDAP with SuiteCRM in a LAMP stack here but can't get it to work somehow. Are you still using this setup?

[girish]

@andreasdueren I haven't tried this in ages (since I posted it). What error are you getting ?

[andreasdueren]

@girish Unfortunately it doesn’t have a test button and won’t show me log data so I’m just opening a new inkognito window to try out the login and I can’t really troubleshoot.

I’m probably entering some incorrect setup information but I don’t know which one…

[marcusquinn]

FWIW I gave SuiteCRM a thorough test, and recommend EspoCRM in every way for speed, customising and scaling.

[andreasdueren]

@marcusquinn Hmm Wasn't a fan so far, Guess I'll give it another try as well
