EspoCRM is an open source, customer relationship management software (CRM) designed for companies to identify up-sell and cross-sell opportunities, manage their sales, marketing, customer service and technical support.

History

EspoCRM was co-founded in Ukraine in 2014 by Yurii Kuznetsov, Oleksii Avramenko and Taras Machyshyn.[3]

Since 2015, EspoCRM was packaged by Bitnami,[4] Softaculous,[5] and XAMPP[6] Addons. These auto-installers provide pre-packaged images for an automated setup of the application in both cloud and local environments (Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, virtual machines). It simplifies the installation of EspoCRM and runtime dependencies.

Since 2021, EspoCRM can be also installed using a Docker[7] container, which includes the application itself and all the supporting software.

Technology

EspoCRM is built as a single-page application (SPA). The application works in a browser and dynamically rewrites the content of the webpage without reloading it. The server-side development of EspoCRM is done in PHP, while the client-side is written in JavaScript.

EspoCRM utilizes MySQL and MariaDB databases. The platform can be cloud-hosted and self-hosted.[8] It can be run on VPS[9] or on web hosting.

License

EspoCRM is licensed under the GNU General Public License v3.0 (GPLv3). The license has been in place since the app's first release. It allows modification of the source code of the software, as well as the creation and redistribution of derived works.
