The appearance of Odoo
With the latest key figures, Fabien Pinckaers announced in 2015 the new name of his software : Odoo
The first version avaible is Version 8 which therefore includes nearly 3.000 modules.
Odoo is an "Open Source software", but what is "Open Source"?
Different from proprietary software, Open Source softwares provide access to the source code of the software. The latter must be written in such a way as to facilitate its reading.
The particularity of the Odoo software : the community
With a source code accessible to the public, it is possible to modify features or add more as desired
The community aroud Odoo grows year to year and helps fuel the tool. With these many possibilities of "customization" it is easy to set up Odoo in many sectors of activity.
