Hello, I am a 2nd year GEII student at the IUT of Indre in France. As part of my internship in the french IT services company "1fogenie", my mission is to identify a list of CRMs since the company wishes to create one. For this, I have several questions about your CRM: -It is a freemium solution ? Where the CRM's offer include a free trial of the premium edition ?
Yes, "Apache OFBiz" is of course Apache licensed so totally free
-Which of these database can be used for installing your CRM: MySQL ? PostGreSQL ? ORACLE ? SQLite ?
All but SQLite, and more: https://github.com/apache/ofbiz-framework/blob/trunk/framework/entity/config/entityengine.xml
-On which word processing software (WORD, EXCEL) is it possible to export data to the CRM? -Can you tell me what is the annual subscription rate for 5 users?
Free
-Is there an API module which allows the interfacing of other third party softwares?
Not directly. Examples of how it's done for accounting (OFBiz is an ERP): https://github.com/apache/ofbiz-framework/tree/trunk/applications/accounting/src/main/java/org/apache/ofbiz/accounting/thirdparty
-Can it be integrated into the Outlook email software? If yes, does it also use his Calendar, Tasks and Contacts functions?
Not but Thunderbird calendar can be used: https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/calendar/
-Does it have access to a GIS (Geographic Information System) function for data analysis?
Yes: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/Connecting+OFBiz+to+PostGIS+spatially-enabled+database (old but still applicable) Also have a look at https://demo-trunk.ofbiz.apache.org/example/control/ExampleOsmGeoLocationPointSet1
Thank you for enlightening me on these different points.
Welcome Jacques
Regards, Paul NOWAK GEII IT student and co-decision maker of the CRM solution
