SugarCRM announced it has extended the capabilities of its mobile apps, deepened its relationship with IBM, and acquired iExtensions CRM.
SugarCRM has extended the capabilities of its social customer relationship management (CRM) software through new integration with applications from a bevy of industry heavyweights — including expansion of the company’s partnership with IBM, as well as SugarCRM’s acquisition of iExtensions CRM from iEnterprises, adding BlackBerry and Droid Mobile applications to its list of offerings. The announcements were made during the annual SugarCon conference last week.
President and CEO Jim Ward was interviewed about Sugar’s newest developments.
BrainSell was given the MVP and 2x 2010 awards at SugarCon 2011, for going above and beyond Sugar’s expectations and more than doubling their business in 2010. Read about it here.

Cloud computing company, Salesforce.com has been around the CRM block quite a few times.
As the usual starting point for businesses looking for CRM software, they have longevity in the market, brand awareness and great marketing.
When making an investment for your business, however, it is only natural to see what else is out there, and BrainSell’s got you covered!
(Fairly) New kid on the block, Microsoft Dynamics CRM, is making its way up the food chain, and with a recent release of their newest version, more and more eyes are focusing on the software titan’s latest contribution to the CRM family.
Despite the early nay-sayers, Apple’s iPad seems to be getting a lot of traction – not just in the home/leisure market segment, but also in the commercial arena, with more and more companies who have staff who travel frequently opting for a lighter weight portable computer. And by computer what exactly do we mean nowadays? You could argue that an iPhone is a computer, as is a Droid, and the iPad; after all each of these devices does a whole more than simply make a phone call…
But the purpose of this post is to look at CRM on a Mobile device. Speaking with colleagues and clients, it appears that with the Android platform and iOS from Apple, mobility has finally come of age. Now perhaps is the right time to consider CRM as a viable application that can function well on a mobile device.
With the advent of HTML5, and its adoption by most (if not all) mobile device browsers, the serving-up of CRM data onto a hand-held device is now fast enough to allow for a true CRM ‘App.’ for Mobile. HTML5, which is still being developed, is the latest version of the standard web language HTML, and will bring enhanced functionality to everyone’s web browsing experience (apparently..!).
Sage Software is making available in just a few weeks time their HTML5 version of SalesLogix CRM; this could be game-changer. But no doubt, time will tell…
The countdown is on – 5 days until our big social media event at the Woburn Hilton. Close to 200 people are signed up already and we’re setting our goals high. 300 sign ups! Almost all of the sign ups have come from social media. Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter.
We needed to step things up in the final sprint. So one of our fine colleagues from SugarCRM, @mjayliebs, suggested running a Twitter contest. After a little research, I found that short and easy is the best way to get traction with a contest.
