For any users looking to take advantage of open source possibilities, installation and support just got easier thanks to an announcement today from SugarCRM to offer Sugar FastStack, software support for the installation and delivery of a complete open source solution.

 

With Sugar Faststack non-technical users and those looking to take advantage of open source technologies will find benefit in Faststack as it offers easy step-by-step directions with a wizard that guides users through the setup process and ensures that all components are installed correctly.

 

Support is included for the installation of Sugar software, the Apache Web Server, PHP and MySQL database and can be installed on all major operating systems, a news release noted.

 

Installing on demand solutions needs to be efficient for users while also meeting the demand for a quick setup and little complexity.

 

"Sugar Faststack eliminates the tradeoff between the fast deployment times of generic On-Demand CRM and the lengthier installation process of custom On-Site CRM. With Sugar FastStack, customers gain the deployment speed of on demand with the control of onsite solutions," commented John Roberts, Co-founder and CEO of SugarCRM in a statement.

 

The solution is available at www.sugarcrm.com for $499.

 

Earlier this week SugarCRM made news with the announcement that had they joined the Microsoft (News - Alert) Vendor Alliance, a move to increase the interoperability between people, data and diverse systems.

 

On December 1^st SugarCRM will also be hosting an event to address and discuss methodologies and best practices for CRM acceleration.
