Open Source ERP & CRM Adempiere

Adempiere is a community driven project which develops and supports an open source business solution of the same name, that delivers Enterprise Resource Planning, Customer Relationship Management and Supply Chain Management functionality. The Adempiere project was created in September 2006 after a long running disagreement between ComPiere Inc., and the community that formed around that project. The community believed ComPiere Inc. placed too much emphasis on the open source 'commercial/lock-in' nature of the project, rather than the community 'sharing/enriching' nature of the project, and after an impassioned discussion decided to split from Compiere™ giving birth to the Adempiere project. The project name comes from the Italian word meaning 'to fulfill' but with additional context of "to complete, reach, practice, perform the duties of, or free (discharge), it also means to honor and respect", which is absolutely what the community wished to achieve. www.adempiere.org
