Adempiere
ADempiere was born in 2006 when a community of open-source developers decided to take Compiere on a path independently of its original sponsor and vendor, Compiere Inc. Developped according to the "bazaar" method and entered quickly in the Top 5 of the SourceForge.net ranking, it has remained, since then as one of the major open-source enterprise apprlication project. Based on Compiere's technical and functional platform, it differs from its "father" on many aspects:
