No sugarcrm is a completely different CRM package, it also has limited capabilities apposed to vtiger. However vtiger is a little more flaky than sugarcrm. If you dont want a "web" based client access and more of a client > server relationship then you will be looking more at a Maximizer type of software package which is not cheap. We have found that the web based CRM packages work best as it allows clients to access the crm info from any internet connected PC. Nice for people on vacations, etc. If they dont have an internet connection then how do you establish a client > server relationship?? Either way your clients will require a network connection so I would recommend web based. If you need a hand with configuration of this type of setup I can be of assistance, email me off list for this help.
