Sugar 6 Goes Global, Mobile and Social
Two of the biggest trends in CRM over the past couple of years have been mobile access and the addition of social media channels.

Now, all of these technology and business trends are converging in the latest release of Sugar 6. The latest and greatest from the people that pioneered “CRM Made Simple” are at it again, this time adding Global, Mobile and Social capabilities to Sugar 6.
