What free CRMs are available for my website?
At an old job of mine we set up Sugar CRM for the sales guys, and it worked wonderfully. You should definitely check it out.
I was looking the same in these days. Looks like SugarCRM being a great choice. I played a lot yesterday with SugarCRM, Zoho CRM and Salesforce. Only SugarCRM, in its community edition, is open source and free. Zoho is nice (and free up to 3 users). Saleforce is more expensive.
Edit. I checked out vTiger crm, and it looks event better than SugarCRM, and there are also some plugins for integration in Outlook, Thunderbird and iPhone. I think I will try to install it ASAP.
Got a list of 10 free CRMs!

I am developing some modules for Vtiger CRM tring to extend some existing modules(for ex: contacs,mail,calendar). My opinion is that Vtiger Crm covers 80% of the standar requirement. There are some limitation in extending the system. Hardcoded query and lots of magic numbers. (ex: if (a==5) else b(a==6) and so on). A new version 5.1 is coming out (is in rc1).
