SAN FRANCISCO, April 29, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- SUGARCON 2014 -- New York based Colosa, the developer of the ProcessMaker Open Source BPM and Workflow suite, announced today the release of a new version of its popular ProcessMaker SugarCRM Edition software.  Last year at SugarCon Colosa announced the first version of the software.  This year Colosa is releasing a new version of the software that is 100% native in Sugar 7, has major new features, and is getting significant traction from customers and partners in the Sugar ecosystem.  Colosa is a Silver sponsor at SugarCRM's 8th annual SugarCon event, a customer and developer's conference which is being held April 28-May 1, 2014 at The Hilton Hotel in San Francisco.

One such customer is Portland Brown, a fast growing Corporate Housing provider with over 400 properties in London and with 50+ users on Sugar Professional Edition.  "Thanks to ProcessMaker's SugarCRM Module we are now able to perform our Property Sign-Off Process 10x faster than before," explained Sean Harris, the Head of Digital for Portland Brown, "and the process is so much easier to track and manage than before."

ProcessMaker SugarCRM Edition is a native sugar module that works in versions 6.5.14+ and version 7.2.0+ of SugarCRM.  The module works in both CE and Paid editions of Sugar and in both on premise and hosted installations.  The module contains a full BPMN 2.0 designer, workflow engine, and business rules editor, and allows companies to better manage their business processes in a dynamic visual editor with zero coding.  In this latest version of the solution, ProcessMaker now supports custom modules, event gateways, business rules, and much more.
