I hate products with generic names. It makes it utterly impossible to search for.
Even if this OP post might explain it, it is still useless when taken out of context like in the esteemed comment above this one.
/rant, sorry, thank you.
I'm gonna start a company that creates cheap life saving products called "Chris"
And the essential companion product, Potato.
On a slightly related note, if you ever want a blast of the past, check out the ASCII art section of chris.com
Its a CRM, i agree with the gripes about the name but tbf I'm kinda surprised to see it on here? The GitHub repo seems pretty dead
LOL. Back in the day I saw a band open for somebody and the band name was 'Bob.' Even in the early aughts searching for 'Bob' was a pointless activity. They eventually changed the name to Super Bob which is just as stupid but at least searchable.
