As discussed in the Introduction part of this tutorial, vTiger CRM is one of the most popular scripts of its kind with over 4 million downloads worldwide. And one of the reasons for its popularity is the fact that it is available on 16 of the most used languages, thus covering the majority of users.
An additional factor for its popularity is also the ease of use of the script. While using many other ones, you must go through a rigorous and lengthy process just for changing the language. With vTiger CRM this procedure is effortless and requires very few simple steps.
