Integrating SugarCRM with Microsoft Exchange Server

Question

What I need is a connector for integrating SugarCRM with Microsoft Exchange server. I am using SugarCRM CE 6.0.2

Answer 1

There are several solutions of integrating/synchronizing SugarCRM with Microsoft Exchange Server.

The first one as you pointed out is using the open source implementation of Microsoft Exchange Server's protocols from OpenChange. A complete tutorial is posted at the accelerate4.com site you mentioned above.

The official SugarCRM go-to way is using a Riva Integration Server. However there are several applications/plug-ins for synchronizing available: J-ExSync, ZuckerExchange, whereas I don't know about their quality. You might want to search through the application list on SugarForge.
