Are there ways being open source has contributed to Odoo's success beyond the obvious stuff like extensibility and ability to self-host?
Especially in a category like ERP that has a big integrator and reseller ecosystem.
- pinky07 8mo agoOpen Source is more a development model than a business model. It helps to evolve faster, but it's not a value for the end-user. Today, we have way more free trials on the saas, than download of the open source version. Our clients (entrepreneurs, CFO, logistic, HR ...) don't care that we are open source: they just want the best product, at a good price. But it helped us grow our partner network of IT companies. For them, open source is a real value.
