CRM for a Law Firm

Hi All


Can anyone advise on some ideas of a CRM for a law firm?

We currently use a case management system but it lacks functionality it is more of an "electronic filing cabinet"

We need something that can integrate outlook/blackberries etc.. and do any the day to day stuff like recording time/matters etc.. we want it to have a powerful sales/marketing feature to utilise cross-selling opportunites

I have seen the microsoft offering from a company called aspective but would like to explore alternatives....

I am not looking for quotes at this stage just some impartial advice

Thanks
Paul Williams

Have a look at SugarCRM or TigerCRM. They have a lot of very useful functionality including time booking.

Another option would be a bespoke system and Creospace would be worth checking out. The did my web site with a complex database and a number of others. Depending on your needs it can be cheaper to start from scratch with something that meets your exact needs as trying to modify something that exists already.

Ad far as CRM is concerned, you could also go for ADempiere (or Compiere). They are both free ERPs which include good CRM features.
