OTRS as a lightweight CRM ?

Dear OTRS gurus, is OTRS suitable for use as a CRM system, or does it lack some critical CRM functionality? Maybe some add-on exists (like ITSM) which makes a lightweight CRM system from OTRS ? Thanks in advanse! Andrew

Hi Andrew, It is a compicated question. Can you explain what exactly do you need from CRM system? -- MoiKrug - ??????? ???? http://bg8s.moikrug.ru/?from=userlink??????? ???? http://bg8s.moikrug.ru/?from=userlink

Hi,
I think it will be a good idea if someone can list all the CRM related
features of OTRS and also add it to the otrs.org too.

The question of "where the distinct border between CRM functionality
and other OSS/BSS systems functionality is" seems to be not so simple.
What I mean, that CRM is some subset of functionality, described in
TMForum's recent document GB929 R3 Vesion 3.2 "TM Forum Applications
Framework (TAM). The OSS/BSS systems landscape". See
http://tmforum.org for details.
Where the edge between CRM functionality and "other" functionality
goes - I have only some ideas and guesses. I.e. "inventory" system (or
CMDB in terms of ITIL) is it part of CRM or counterpart?
Thanks,
Andrew
