We run a business with several office workers that have to coordinate with several outside sales people.
Currently, we use dotProject for our project management (construction projects/equipment sales into new buildings) and we use XRMS for our CRM/contact management.
We would ideally like an all-in-one solution that can integrate all of these functions. Other "wish list" items are mobile browser/blackberry compatibility, SSL compatibility and VPN compatibility. (we do not currently have a VPN but would like to implement this)
We would prefer this to run on our server. We are big fans of Open Source Software. Another plus would be a great support/forum system. There's good software out there but the support is non-existent (XRMS, for example)
I know this sounds like a big wish list, but we're really looking for an all in one solution, and a solution that is simple and streamlined. We have only 10 employees; we are not a major international corporation!
Thanks in advance!

Having grandkids is God's way of giving you a 2nd chance because you were too busy working your butt off the 1st time around
Do not send me PMs with problems that should be posted in the forums. Keep it in the forums, so everyone benefits

Thanks.
Well Open Source is a preference. I guess what we're really adverse to is a subscription. We don't like the idea of paying monthly for such a system, especially since we have a Linux VPS we can tap into.

Have you looked at Sugar CRM ? I don't think it will support all of your requirements, but then I think you are asking quite a lot for a core, critical application - you probably will end up paying something for this.
MS Dynamics CRM can be run on your premises and has great customisation and extendability (using Windows Workflow Foundation and/or custom .net code). Can definitely be used as a platform to develop the sort of solution you want, no need to pay on a subscription necessarily.
