Can anyone recommend a good crm wiki or open source crm?
I have a small 5 person company and don't have the budget to implement something big. I’ve been told my needs are limited since I only really need contact management and shared calendar features around my office. What do you suggest?

Go for Opensource - sugarcrm - http://www.sugarcrm.com/crm/ or vtigercrm - http://www.vtiger.com/index.php
If you want to do it yourself take linux hosting from a reputed vendor, most of them provide sugarcrm and vtigercrm as easily installable scripts - you just need to click the script and install it and you are on the way!
Check out Commence Ondemand - only $19 / user. http://www.commence.com
Great input, thank you. I've been looking at sugar and vtiger. They seem to be the consensus around small business open source crm.
Sorry to beat a dead horse but VTiger is definetly the way to go. You can host it on Siteground.com for something like $12 or $14 bucks a year!
You also might want to consider Zoho CRM (http://www.crm.zoho.com). They're not fully open source, but they're very cost effective and can handle the needs that you mentioned.
Highrise is a bit more expensive than Zoho, but also well worth a look. (http://www.highrisehq.com)
SugarCrm is pretty good also.
Hello Keith,
You can use Borneosoft CRM Free Edition for 2x100MB. It is fully functional and it is not time limited. It is hosted CRM services so you don't need to worry about hosting fee.
It has contact, calendar and sales management. Have a look at http://www.borneosoft.com
The Calendar also provides RSVP where you can invite participants through email and the participants can indicate their attendance from the email.
We use Sugar CRM which is a very good and scalable CRM for business start-ups.
