Open source ERP Nuclos: installation at the touch of a button

Nuclos 3.0 is now available to download free of charge / Installation of the open source ERP toolkit takes just a few minutes / New desktop concept and higher system performance in the cloud

Sauerlach (Munich), 30 May 2011 – With the latest version 3.0 of its open source ERP construction kit Nuclos, Novabit is revolutionizing ERP installation: Nuclos 3.0 can be set up on almost any system landscape at the touch of a button via a dialog-driven installer. Companies then have a fully operational ERP construction kit at their disposal with which they can work directly. Existing databases can be connected via existing standard interfaces. The installation package also includes a preconfigured PostgreSQL database, which can be installed on request. This makes Nuclos 3.0 particularly suitable as business software for small companies without a complex IT infrastructure. The software is now available for download free of charge at www.nuclos.de.

New desktop concept for greater ease of use

In addition to the one-click installer, Nuclos 3.0 offers other important features that make working with the ERP construction kit even easier. These include the new desktop concept with tabs (tabbed GUI) instead of windows, similar to a modern web browser. This makes it easier to work and allows the individual workspace to be freely arranged and views to be distributed across more than one screen. User-friendly features such as favorites lists also ensure greater usability. Also new: convenient drag & drop makes it easier, for example, to assign any documents or emails to processes in the ERP.

Nuclos “Cloud ready”

Optimized system performance now also allows users to work comfortably over slower DSL lines. This is a great advantage for companies that want to operate Nuclos in an external data center or provide access to other locations and external employees.

Installation as simple as with an Office application

“Installing an ERP system used to be a time-consuming and complicated undertaking. We have put an end to this,” says Ramin Göttlich, Managing Director of Novabit Informationssysteme GmbH. “With Nuclos 3.0, companies get an open source ERP construction kit at the touch of a button, as easily as installing an Office application. They can get started in just a few minutes and configure their own company software, known as a nuclet.” The system does not provide a fixed, unchangeable range of functions, but offers mechanisms to define these individually. With Nuclos, users can map any individual business processes, even without IT expertise, and adapt them to changing requirements at any time.
