BitRock Case Study: Openbravo

Overview Openbravo is a fully functional, integrated, web-based open source enterprise management (ERP) system especially designed with small to medium-sized businesses in mind. ERP systems are known for being highly complex to set up. Openbravo's goal of becoming the enterprise management solution of choice for small to medium size businesses means that it has to make the implementation and adaptation process easier and less intimidating than it is for traditional ERP solutions. BitRock developed a Windows installer for Openbravo that offers users the flexibility of using software already installed on their system, while still providing a fast, user-friendly installation and configuration process.
