Tryton vs webERP

Tryton is modular business software for companies of any size, with tools for accounting, sales, inventory, CRM, purchasing, supply chain, manufacturing, shipping, projects, and subscriptions. It also lists finance, order management, and multi-entity support. Its three-tier architecture uses an application server, a PostgreSQL database, web or desktop clients, and server modules for business logic. Tryton is free and open source, with on-premise self-hosting or third-party hosting; providers also offer rented cloud servers. Desktop clients are available for Windows 64-bit, macOS x86-64 and arm64, and Linux Flatpak. Source releases are listed for web, REST, desktop, and console clients. A Docker image packages the server, modules, and web client for production deployment. New release series arrive every six months and usually receive one year of support; new major versions receive five years of long-term support. The project offers a shared demo with example data reset daily, plus a community support forum.

webERP is a free, web-based, open-source accounting and business management system for businesses of all sizes. It brings together accounts receivable and payable, general ledger, bank accounts, inventory, purchasing, order management, and manufacturing tools, with support for multiple entities. Manufacturing functions include multi-level bills of materials, work orders, and material requirements planning; capacity requirements planning and MRP II are not available. The project says it is available in 37 languages. webERP runs on a PHP-capable web server and is operating-system independent, but it requires a MySQL or MariaDB database. Deployment is on-premise and self-hosted, under the GNU General Public License v2 at free. The system provides role-based access, transaction audit trails, optional SSL encryption, account lockout after three incorrect passwords, and protections against SQL injection and cross-site scripting. Its XML-RPC API lets external programs retrieve and update data, but can access only one company per installation. The project also maintains webSHOP and CounterLogicPOS portals.
