sugarcrm desktop

[mbchoe]

maybe this should be in another forum for sugarexchange projects but i'm not a developer.

do you know if any company has developed a desktop app for sugarcrm similar to one created by invisible crm for salesforce, called sales desktop?

i know that would increase acceptance and adoption rates at my company.

thanks.

There is an offline client in pro and enterprise.

It is an additional cost for Pro. Contact your SugarCRM sales rep or partner and they should be able to help you out.

You should know that it doesn't integrate with LDAP setups. So if your people are authenticating via ldap the offline client doesn't work. I've submitted this as a feature request a couple years ago.

Hello!

do you know if any company has developed a desktop app for sugarcrm similar to one created by invisible crm for salesforce, called sales desktop?

i know that would increase acceptance and adoption rates at my company.

May I ask you - why? What are main advantages of a desktop app compared to web app?

Thanks in advance

You would be able to access your data even if you don't have internet access.

BTW, a side note to the original poster, I just remembered that the offline client is no longer offered for Pro, only Enterprise at this point.

Actually, I think InvisibleCRM has a Sugar connector. They have one listed in SugarExchange (http://www.sugarexchange.com/product_details.php?product=421)
