Openbravo Releases 2.50 – Modules Are Here
Open source ERP vendor Openbravo yesterday announced the release of Openbravo 2.50 – you can download it from here. From a product perspective, the most important feature of this release is Modules. Openbravo now provides the platform required to extend its ERP offering, but it’s up to the community and partners to take Openbravo to the next level of ERP by building industry solutions and other generic extensions on top of OB’s modular architecture. An extensive modules library should make OB a more attractive ERP offering and a better competition to proprietary ERP solution, by further cutting costs of implementation projects (modules cut the costs of customization).
From a service prospective, Openbravo redesigned their service offering and renamed it Openbravo Professional Subscription. OB services now target two markets – SMB and the enterprise. The main difference (other than the price , of course) is support for clustering, which is often a necessary (yet not sufficient) condition for critical information systems in the enterprise. The service repackaging lines up Openbravo with other enterprise software vendors, cutting prices and simplifying price structures in times of recession.
Openbravo ERP 2.50 was released several weeks ago. In fact, they already released the first maintenance pack.
Not very informed to be an OSERP guru.
Read the post again – ‘Openbravo yesterday ANNOUNCED the release’, it doesn’t say ‘OB yesterday RELEASED’.

was published on 23rd March. Sorry but i didn’t mean to be rude. I just wanted to be a little annoying, expecting that this criticism will mean more posting frequency and more content in the posts. Think of me as Socrates.
There are many more OSS ERPs than OpenBravo, and a lot of movement going on. And I think that in order to call oneself a guru, at least one must create orginal content or at least be a good agregator of news.
Hey Marcos,
Glad to know there is demand out there for industry info. Posting frequency depends on many factors and I try my best to post as much as I can.
True, there are several very successful open source ERP projects other than the ones covered here, but capacity is limited.
Thanks anyway
