Abstract

With the growing complexity and dynamics of modern organizations, ERP systems contribute to the management of business processes and allow strategic decisions to be taken more quickly and more safely, through a systemic, integrated view of the corporation. Free/Open Source software has consolidated as an increasingly viable alternative for this kind of systems, through the flexibility provided by its business and development model and the consequent possibility of total cost reduction. The objective of this chapter is to present a comparative survey of the main free/open source ERP systems currently available in the marketplace, their features focused in Brazilian companies and a general overview on its potential market.
