A proposition for a new functionality:
-Activity by day: a new tab or dashboard widget that lets me see all the calls, leads, contacts, emails, etc that I touched during a specific time window (defaults to today's date)

One more simple one for the list: being able to color-code records. Like open-ended tagging, it can be used in any way that’s meaningful to users (denote urgency of response required, value of the deal, likelihood of close, how pissed the customer is, etc). It would be a simple yet extremely useful thing to have when looking at massive screens of results. Bonus: make it an AJAXy interface for immediately setting this on the search results screen and make it a field that’s sortable.

[...] the system were almost entirely addressed in the last release. At this point there’s only a miniscule list of features I’d like to see added to the product. Kudos to the SugarCRM development team for solid [...]

Another super-useful one I’d love to see; give me a single RSS feed that I can track to monitor the activity of anything that’s changed in Sugar. So all new contacts or communications with any leads or contacts become an item in the RSS feed. Could just make it available to admins or get fancy and make a filtered version avail to other people and expose only what they have access to based on their role. this would be HUGE.

add another one to the list:

- a “Do not call” screening that will automatically check your leads’ phone numbers against the National Do Not Call Registry here: https://telemarketing.donotcall.gov/default.aspx
you supply the credentials you used when setting up your account on the Registry and it performs the check against their db and auto-flags the contacts as DNC.

[...] I don’t like to add to the blogosphere echo chamber, but I came across this great post from a new SugarCRM user that’s worth looking at. Sean has been running Sugar for two months and has some great ideas for new add-ons to Sugar (Track Skype Calls, Auto merge all dupe emails, iCal feed and more) that would turbo charge Sugar for him. Any takers in the community? [...]

just to clarify, when I say better than apps that sell for $100/seat I’m not talking about SugarCRM, I’m talking about things like AbsoluteBusy.com or officeclip.com. I’ve looked at the demos for both — they’re horrendous. They do this thing where they make some interface way way overcomplicated and then say “WOW, looks how EASY this makes managing blah blah”. And my only thought is umm… yeah, if you’re Bizarro.
