    @marcusquinn I am not sure if I am missing something, but out of the box, EspoCRM seems to quite barebones with just core CRM modules, without many features such as Quotes, Invoices, etc that are available as a paid Extension Packs (Annual subscription plans).

    So, to replicate Odoo or ERPNext Self Hosted Open Source versions involves annual payments right?

    Please correct me if am wrong, but while Odoo's most attractive features are unavailable in the open source community version, ERPNext seems to be the real deal.

    @jagan yeah, I've good experience with all 3 and highly recommend Espo, although it might depend on your time and expectations.

    I'm actually going to recreate the Sales Pack stuff for Espo as I think their way can be improved.

    Not knowing how urgent your needs are, if they are very urgent I'd recommend Odoo paid and hosted.

    If you have a little time and prefer open-source control, Espo is great.

    Anything the others do can be recreated in Espo, you just have to be organised with any CRM/ERP system.

    DM me if you want access to my GitLab work on Espo, I just need your gitlab.com handle to add you to repos.

      There are a ton of great updates in ERPNext today and the Update rate is from beginning Version 13 quiet awsome... Please can you please please please consider adding ERPNext? This would be such a massiv impact in the Usecase of Cloudron for me...
      The service for the Frappeengine kills me so hard and Coudron is soo easy... i would fund some coins if this could speed up this topic!!!

        Hmmmm why is the reaction to my question closing one thread and send the question Zons Thread where i get the answer „buy the expansions“.

        Why does a paying member not get an answer? Is this just some kids toy here? Then sorry I got the intention wrong and I will not try to improve anything here!

            @fmoeller I don't think anyone said no to anything, you just have to convince someone that packages apps to package this one. Someone that can't live without it would be the best ally, as they will be invested in keeping it updated too.

                I also would LOVE to see ERPnext on Cloudron.
                Please, please package the app! It would also increase my usecase for cloudron by a an incredible amount!

                            @girish The feature set is crazy for something that can run on a $20/mo VPS. I manage a commercial/industrial services business out of California and have replaced our proprietary accounting, dispatching, CRM and project management software with ERPNext. All of that cost around $1,000/mo

                            Here's a list of modules available:

                            • Accounting
                            • Asset management

                            • Human resource management (HRM)
                            • Manufacturing
                            • Point of sale (POS)
                            • Project management
                            • Purchasing
                            • Sales management
                            • Warehouse management system
                            • Student Information system
                            • Hospital Information system
                            • Agriculture Management

                            @dcher The Gantt Charts look nice.

                            Also consider Odoo Community Edition and its Freedom focused fork, Flectra, both of which have been requested in the App Wish section of the forum.

                              @nebulon @girish ERPNext is looking good...I'd love to see it added officially as a Cloudron app! (I've decided to move our business to ERPNext.) Maybe they'd support adding an "Install with Cloudron" option on their GitHub page? That could bring more business customers to Cloudron I expect.

                              Quick notes:

                              • Their official docker image seems mature enough. https://github.com/frappe/frappe_docker
                              • They also have a 1-click droplet app on Digital Ocean. (But I'd rather manage it through Cloudron...because Cloudron is beautiful and awesome.)
                              • There is an ERPNext integration for n8n.

                                @chrishthompson Yes, totally agree. I tried several ERPs and this one really made me almost teary. Such a rich-featured ERP and they decided to make it open source.
                                It's a high quality made ERP. It has integration with WordPress and n8n.
                                Really wish it would be in Cloudron soon.
                                At the moment, I'm paying for a separate server just to deploy ERPnext. But it would lovely to have it in my Cloudron along with other apps I have here.
                                Cloudron team, please consider bringing it here 🙂

                                  @girish Any chance you will be able to have a look at their official package? I deployed their docker image for production in DO: https://github.com/frappe/frappe_docker
                                  — and it works like a charm.
                                  Why I think ERPnext is a very beautiful project: Open-source at heart, with good developers behind it, highly supportive and very community-driven project. The project has been going on for almost a decade now. 🙂

                                      Are there plans to bring ERPNext to cloudron soon so I can use those resources or do I have to set up and pay for another virtual machine? Because my Time is kind of running out on this one and I would rather not migrate again.

                                        We're actually in the same boat, since it's a new year looking to move platforms and this would be a massive win on our side.

                                          @girish Any chance you will be able to have a look at their official package? I deployed their docker image for production in DO: https://github.com/frappe/frappe_docker
                                          — and it works like a charm.
                                          Why I think ERPnext is a very beautiful project: Open-source at heart, with good developers behind it, highly supportive and very community-driven project. The project has been going on for almost a decade now. 🙂

                                          @aizat Since the cloudron Teams seems to be unwilling to adopt the official docker image for the app store, do you or anyone else here have experience in installing custom docker images so I can get this thing finally set up?
