Open source CRM you can self-host and fully customize
SuiteCRM is an open source CRM maintained by SalesAgility, originally forked from SugarCRM Community Edition. It covers sales, marketing campaigns, customer service cases, quotes and workflows, and because it is self-hosted you keep complete control over data and code. Organizations with in-house IT or an implementation partner choose it to avoid depending on a single vendor.

Pros

- No vendor lock-in, since you choose the hosting and the partner
Cons
- Needs a server and technical skills to install, secure and update
- Interface feels dated next to modern cloud CRMs
