I haven't had the time to take a look at them, but in their latest open source 
study the German Fraunhofer Society mentioned - besides SugarCRM - the packages 
http://www.opencrx.org/ and http://www.wice.de/ as the only open source CRM 
software that can compete with its proprietary competitors.

The German computer magazine c't tested some open source CRM packages (but not 
wice) and drew the conclusion, that only SugarCRM and it's spin-off Vtiger are 
really usable at the moment. OpenCRX has an impressing feature set but would 
lack intuitive usability.
