Openbravo has announced the release of a new integrated business management
solution built on top of Ubuntu Server Edition, Openbravo ERP 2.50 Professional
Subscription for Ubuntu.
Openbravo ERP 2.50 Professional Subscription for Ubuntu is available through
Openbravo's partner network. This integrated offering combines Openbravo ERP
2.50 and Ubuntu Server Edition, including Openbravo’s support on the entire
solution, the company said.
Openbravo develops Web-based open-source ERP (enterprise resource planning)
and POS (point of sale) solutions for
businesses, while Canonical is the commercial sponsor of Ubuntu Linux.
Openbravo ERP is now included in the Ubuntu partner repository, enabling
Ubuntu users to add the software quickly and easily to their Ubuntu server. The
new Openbravo ERP Professional Subscription for Ubuntu provides expert support
and business continuity for the entire open-source software stack, which
includes the ERP software, operating system, application server and database.
The latest release of the ERP software, Openbravo ERP 2.50 Professional
Subscription, introduced the concept of modularity, simplifying customization
and the creation of third-party add-ons. This makes it easier for organizations
to tailor their ERP system to their exact needs, while maintaining
upgradeability.
In a statement, John Pugh, ISV channel sales
manager of Canonical, said: “The bottom line is that Openbravo and Canonical
are taking our relationship to a new level with this offering. The engineering
and support teams on both sides have collaborated deeply to bring this
integrated solution to market. Canonical is very excited to directly offer
Openbravo’s ERP system to our business users.”
Also in a statement, Josep Mitja, chief operating officer at Openbravo,
said: “This exciting new partnership with Canonical is opening important doors
for our ecosystem and partners. Openbravo’s ERP inclusion in the Ubuntu partner
repository enables members of the open-source ecosystem to install Openbravo
ERP easily. And, on top of that, our new Professional Subscription product,
which is based on Ubuntu and a PostgreSQL database, allows our partners to
tailor premium, commercially-supported 100 percent open-source solutions for
their end customers’ benefit.”
