“We have not been able to find a “right-sized” ERP solution for
our needs to replace the ageing character based system (which had
been “sunsetted” by infor in ’05). We also needed some form of CRM
package to mange the growth of the company once we had moved into
our new building in ’05.

“So… we decided to develop our own system in combination with
an open source CRM package from a company called Senokian Solutions
(http://www.senokian.com) called EGS.

“EGS is PHP/Ajax based and runs against PostgreSQL. It also has
its own development framework based on MVC that allows you to add
modules. EGS 2.0 core has CRM, Project Management, Ticketing
modules and a framework that allows for integrated e-commerce apps
and site content management. It is free and open source.”
