I think you mean Sugar [www.sugarcrm.com]. Version 5.0 is available now with 5.1 slated for March time. The Community version is free and is simple to run [and install if you are a bit techie]. If you want a hosted version - minimum 5 seats - go for the Pro version.
We run it as it has some good features but it lacks the workflow automation of Goldmine.
There may be SugarCRM consultants out there that can walk you through it .. or visit the forums [www.sugarcrm.com/forums]

Hello Ian 
If you do want something web based, then perhaps consider our offering; it's also fully integrated with web based accounting, sales management and stock control (and if you're running an e-commerce website Pearl will also do that...)

Fire me any questions, I'd be glad to help out

Hi Chris
Your software certainly looks extensive, but my concern with web-based software like this is what if our internet is down for some reason (last year it was down for FOUR days!)?
Is there not some way you could do a web-based and offline software that were linked. That way, all the time the user has access to the internet they can use the web-based version. But if they're internet connection goes down they can still use the offline version (which was updated with all the necessary client data the last time the web-based version was used) and then it simply uploads all the new information once the internet connection is back?

Hi Ashley
Yes, that is the one downside of a web based system. We are working on a plug-in that will allow an offline system to talk with Pearl, but the link would have to be programmed by a third party depending on what offline software you chose.
