Thrive Vs SugarCRM

Large, small or medium, a business needs a perfect CRM solution to fix all customer related complexities faced by its sales team. Thrive Bureau ERP and SugarCRM are two dominant CRM providers in the market. Sugar CRM uses proprietary codes whereas Thrive Bureau ERP is open source software.

SugarCRM

A web-based CRM solution, Sugar CRM initially used only open-source support and hence Community edition was the highlight of Sugar CRM in the initial days. But they stopped upgrading community editions after the release of Version 7. Sugar CRM now comes mostly in two editions- Enterprise and Professional.

Sugar Enterprise is designed aiming the customers who prefer on-premise deployment. With flexibility in customization and control over technology stack as the highlights Sugar enterprise is suitable for large enterprises. Sugar Professional, on the other hand offers CRM solution for Small business with options for seamless upgrading. We are using the Enterprise edition of SugarCRM for this comparison.
