Check out this : https://github.com/frappe/books - free desktop accounting software. https://github.com/frappe/erpnext - free if you host yourself or $10+ if they host it on their server. ERP Software Both are free. And they are pretty decent.

Yep, trying out a self hosted erpnext. It’s quite smooth and reliable especially when you compare it with Odoo. The cost for their cloud options is also way more economic to Odoo. Want to try out their integration with woo commerce.

If you don’t mind me asking, how did you get self-hosted ERPNext up and running?

I had a beast of a time getting Frappe Bench up and receiving requests, but then it refused to serve a page.

There doesn’t seem to be any documentation either.

The official instructions worked perfectly for me:

you are right, its impossible to set up frappe, the documents are a mess.
