sovereigntyThe CRM module of Odoo's ERP suite, self-hostable under the LGPL community edition, sharing a data model with accounting, inventory, projects and e-commerce. The right answer when the CRM is one requirement among several, and the wrong one when it is the only requirement.

What it does well
- +One data model across CRM, invoicing, inventory and projects
- +Very large module ecosystem and a big installed base
- +Community Edition is genuinely usable rather than a demo
Where it falls short
- −Meaningful features sit in the paid Enterprise edition, which blurs the open-source story
- −Adopting a full ERP to replace a CRM is a large decision made sideways
- −Heaviest migration path on this list
