Odoo
Odoo is an integrated suite of applications that includes
modules for project management, billing, accounting,
inventory management, manufacturing, and purchasing.
While ERP can be complex, Odoo makes it friendlier with a
simple, almost spartan interface. The interface is reminiscent
of Google Drive.
