Paper Abstract:
|
ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) open source systems appeared as opportunities. For example, to organizations that cannot support the cost of large ERP systems, open source may be a possible solution. Nevertheless, those systems have limitations. Those systems may not be as free as their developers claim. Furthermore, as developers do not receive a fee for the production of the software, those solutions are not so well built. In this paper, we intend to answer three questions. First, we want to know the main needs in terms of software systems in organizations. We also want to know in what extent open source ERP may become one competitive solution for IT Consultant, Software Distributor, software producer or information systems clients'. Finally, what extend current solutions presented by the market fulfils clients needs. |
