SuiteCRM : Extensions

💬 General Discussion
1

during our evaluation, we found certain extensions which works well in SugarCRM are not compatible with SuiteCRM though its a forked version.

This could be limitation to not having access to Sugars extenstion available and free can not be used in SuiteCRM and has a dependency to SuiteCRM? please advice.

for example

  1. Process Manager by Sierra CRM
  2. SecuritySuite by SugarOutfitters

Both of these are not compatible directly in suiteCRM and it needs to go through a debug process.
Process Manager is more Capable today than Workflow Module.

As the suitecrm look clean with more modules
When i Installed the SecuritySuite in suiteCRM i was unable to create any new objects, new fields, New Dropdown Values. continuously facing the errors like “Failed to Retrieve Data”

Is there any known fix to this.

Hi Pravin,

What is your Server/MySQL/PHP setup? What is your error logging level set to? Have you performed a Quick Repair and Rebuild in Admin -> Repair?

Security Suite works out of the box with SuiteCRM.

What are the functional differences that you have experienced between AOW and Process Manager?

Thanks,

Will.

SecuritySuite is so compatible with SuiteCRM that it IS the teams component of SuiteCRM - it’s already built in - so with an utter lack of respect - you are talking rubbish!!

ProcessManager still has a slight functional edge over Advanced OpenWorkflow. But that disappears when Workflow 2.0 is released on the 28th of this month. Besides which, it’s proprietary, expensive and buggy.

CentosOS/PHP and MySQL,
We did all Quick Repair, Repair relationship.

But no luck.

I got logs in sugarcrm log specific to security Suite.

That does not describe your environment. We need to know versions of each.

And for someone that says that extensions do not work, you’re demonstrating a worrying lack of knowledge of technology in general and SugarCRM framework in particular.

Given that SierraCRM has decided to go head to head with SuiteCRM and Advanced OpenWorkflow, this thread has the feel of troll about it.

Thanks for your support. seems I could not look for a solution, rather getting into competition.

We Just Enquired with SugarOutfitters, And got to know it works with suiteCRM and is in practice by many customers.

Hi Pravin,

I had some success by changing the default storage engine in the MySQL my.ini file from INNODB to MyISAM as follows

#default-storage-engine=INNODB
default-storage-engine=MyISAM

Then create a new database and attempt a clean install. The tables should be created ok now.

Cheers
