Odoo
EU verifiedBelgian open-source business suite with CRM, sales, projects and more – as cloud or fully self-hostable.
Odoo is a Belgian business software suite that combines CRM, sales, accounting, project management, website/shop, inventory and many more modules in one system. The company follows an open-core model: the Community Edition is open source (LGPLv3) and can be self-hosted for free, while the Enterprise Edition and cloud offerings (Odoo Online, Odoo.sh) add proprietary apps and support. For companies that want to bundle many business areas in a European, partly open-source system while keeping data control, Odoo is a very broad alternative to Salesforce, HubSpot or Microsoft Dynamics setups.
Note on ownership: Belgian company (Odoo S.A., formerly OpenERP) with an integrated business suite of CRM, sales, accounting, projects, website, inventory and more. Open-core model: the Community Edition is open source (LGPLv3) and self-hostable; the Enterprise Edition and cloud (Odoo Online, Odoo.sh) contain proprietary add-on apps.
