Proyecto abierto o ]proyecto abierto[ is a free open source Enterprise Project Management solution. It’s designed and developed by a Frank Bragmann who studied business management and complex project management.
The project has been around for long time and it is widely used by hundreds or enterprises around the world in different sectors.
Project-Open has a lot of features in the form of modules, which give you the ability to customize the system by choosing the modules that you need only, and doesn’t force you to install the whole system. You can add modules later as your business grows. It also has a comprehensive online Documentation.
Project-Open is not an ERP, It’s an EPM (Enterprise Project Management)
The Difference between ERP (Enterprise Resources Management) and EPM (Enterprise Project Management) may seem shallow for small firms or small department requirement, but it’s really big difference for experienced managers in large and medium scale enterprises.
While RP solutions focus on providing effective tools to manage the company resources which include projects, tasks, time, stocks, and more, EPM (Enterprise Project Management) solutions tend to specialize in managing the project’s workflow, and providing several methods and tools to make it suitable with different types of projects.
Our solution here: Project-Open has many features and tools to do so with ease. As an example Project-Open is highly configurable during the setup to give the end-users (Managers & Executives) the right tools for flexible workflow management that fits their projects shape and the right tools to get the things done.
