-- SellWinCRM --

Open Source CRM software

PRODUCT DEFUNCT!!  

ShowStopper: "As of 2005-03-30 05:45, this project is no longer under active development." SourceForge

Why Open Source CRM?

SellWinCRM is an open source CRM project. This means that customers can download the source code at no cost. This may be the best way for customers to invest in a CRM sales application. Open App, a CRM software development startup in Austin, Texas, offer comprehensive professional services centered around SellWin CRM.

A concern is that their latest version (according to their website, anyway), SellWinCRM v1.1, was released in

October, 2002. One would expect a major upgrade to happen at least once a year. Software developers are not noted for their marketing skills, so maybe it is just their website that's out-of-date. Just as well, otherwise we would be living in a world of vapourware!

Licensing Model

SellWin's source code is distributed under a license whereby customers can keep their changes and

enhancements to SellWin CRM as their own proprietary enhancements without having to share their code changes. This licensing model gives customers the maximum degree of customization. The only restriction is that customers can't resell SellWin under a different name. You can get more details about their licensing from OpenSource.org.

Technical Information.

EJB

SellWin uses the JBoss EJB application server for serving the various Java clients. EJB is an enterprise open system platform that enables client-server communications and component architectures.

Cross Platform

SellWin is written entirely in Java and can run on any Java (J2SE) capable platform including UNIX, Linux, and Windows. WinSell's database components are written in JDBC to provide access to any database platform.

J2ME

The WinSellCRM wireless client application is developed using the Java 2 Micro Edition architecture for MIDP devices. J2ME devices can include phones, PDAs, and pagers.

JavaDoc

SellWin's source code is written with internal code comments formatted in the JavaDoc style. All source code documentation can be viewed as HTML.

Swing Client

SellWin's GUI is constructed using the Java Swing API. This provides a robust set of user interface controls that a power user expects. Using Swing, allows SellWin to optimize network traffic between the GUI and server components, thereby reducing network waiting for end users.
