I found nothing that establishes this company's notability and the last two AfDs in 2005 and 2006 didn't show notability either. There is also an unsourced statement that it is a competitor of a notable software company which has no way of possibly showing notability since it seems to be original research - "Initial entry: I think this company is a serious contender to NetSuite, as Wikipedia is to the Brittanica, or Linux is to Windows."

Delete - The only substantial coverage I could find was this article covering the product going open source. Insufficient coverage to establish nottability. -- Whpq (talk) 16:13, 26 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Simply being open source is not an exemption from notability requirements, however much you might favor it as a cause. This remains yet another software suite that includes a combination of Contact Management, Sales Force Automation (SFA), and Customer Relationship Management (CRM) functionality. Making such a thing is apparently such a mighty achievement that every single package ever made imagines itself worthy of an encyclopedia entry. The only thing I found that did not look like a PR entry was this incidental mention. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 19:53, 27 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
