I own a small business and am currently using quickbooks, however I don’t really make enough to justify the price I am paying for it. I did have a deal for roughly 3 months which made it cheap, however the price has gone up now.
I was wondering if anyone knows of any self hosted applications that support business like tracking. Would something like firefly work for this? I am not really needing budgeting.
I’ve tried odoo and while I like it, a lot of the accounting side of things is lock behind a pay wall although there are third party plug ins that accomplish the same tasks.
Once I have more free time I’m going to test out Erpnext as it’s 100% open source with no pay walls if you self host it.
Erpnext looks interesting and looks like it has a ton of what anyone could need. Though looks like the setup is a little more confusing.
If you use ESXI as your hypervisor then you could use their virtual machine package to see if you like it. https://bitnami.com/stack/erpnext/virtual-machine
I do recommend manually installing it yourself if you end up liking it so you can understand how all the gears mesh together if you ever have to troubleshoot.
