Screenshots of the Openbravo ERP web interface

Openbravo’s Java-based architecture focuses on two development models:

  • module-driven development (developers describe the application in terms of modules)
  • model-view-controller (a well established design pattern where presentation and business logic are isolated)

These two models allow for integration with other programs and for a simple interface due to the application of open standards. Openbravo ERP can be integrated with other open source applications like Magento webshop, Pentaho Business Intelligence, ProcessMaker BPM, Liferay Portal and SugarCRM amongst others.
