the alpha360 erp blog

We just published a video presenting the WEBDEV implementation of the Open Source alpha360 erp. You can find it here:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSdJRKI7QjY thanks for your support the alpha360.biz team

A lot of WINDEV developers contacted us, about the yearly cost of the current commercial editions. When you buy the Standard 2017 version you get - ontop of the core erp - the extended erp, which has the following functionality : WINDEV POS, User Roles, User Menus, Translation Tools, Reports, Dashboards and Extended Price Policies. and Updates and Support - for the above - FOR EVER. When you buy the Business 2017 version you get - ontop of the core erp - the extended erp and the WEDEV erp: WINDEV POS, User Roles, User Menus, Translation Tools, Reports, Dashboards and Extended Price Policies. [plus] The WEBDEV implementation of the core erp [please notice the words core erp] and Updates and Support - for the above - FOR EVER. You never have to pay again, either for updates or support for the commercial versions, that you have already purchased. In late 2017, we will introduce NEW MODULES, with NEW FUNCTIONALITIES and they will be named something like Production2018 (

We just published v0.2 of the alpha360 erp. You can download it from our site: www.alpha360.biz There are also 2 NEW video presentations on the Video section of the site. the alpha36 0.biz team

We just finished doing some small changes to our main website alpha360.biz We cleaned things up and made the navigation a lot easier. There is also now, more information on the STANDARD 2017v and BUSINESS 2017v editions. The magazine idea, although we think it was a great idea, most of you didn't like it. So we "killed it" and included all its content in the STANDARD 2017v and BUSINESS 2017v editions. Maybe somebody else can see an opportunity and deliver an independent "magazine" for WX technology in the future ... The WINDEV POS functionality is now in the extended ERP - included in both the STANDARD 2017v and BUSINESS 2017v editions . We also moved our blog to a true blog platform - and hopefully we will get better SEO from google. In the next couple of days we are also going to make some changes to our support website.  Just getting things ready for v0.2, which will be HUGE. the alpha36 0.biz team  

We are cleaning our documentation and getting ready to post version 0.2 of the Open Source ERP - our first major post after v0.1. Version 0.2 will have: the complete Data Model and Business Processes for Parties the complete Data Model and Business Processes for Products (items, services etc.) the complete UI interface code - and in the s upport a rea you will find documentation on how you can use it in the ERP _and_ your own LOB application s. the alpha360 erp v0.2 application installation - so users who don't have v21 of WINDEV can play with the application and see it live. We have also made it a lot easier to Order - just go to <Order> from the main menu - and select your edition. And a last note - a lot of people asked us to "do things quicker". So we are speeding things up and planning to post the core erp before February 2017. the alpha360.biz team

Absolutely not. Even if you don’t develop erps, the project has code and techniques any W INDEV developer can use in their own LOBs - Line of Business applications. You may not have heard of it yet, but LOBs are one of fastest growing sectors in the Industry - and W INDEV is the best tool to develop them. An example of this type of code is our simple and powerful UI – you can find it in the project and use it in your applications. Notifying and refreshing windows, Querying, Web Services, Dash Boards etc. are among th ings covered in the project. They are fully documented and subscribers to the STANDARD and BUSINESS editions also get full support. Think of the project as a live W INDEV magazine in English - starting from just 99 euros !!! Don’t forget to view our new video- showing the full UI - on our YouTube channel. the alpha360.biz team

Is the FULL project available to download now? - Nope. We will be releasing a functional area of the erp, every month. Why isn’t it available for FULL download now? - We want to deliver it as a course, with full documentation and at the same time offer support to our subscribers. It would be impossible for us to deliver it in any other way. Can I see something of the FULL product, a demo or video? - Yes, you can find a 20 minute video, on our website, showing our implementation of the project, for the Greek SB market. Can I participate in the project? - Yes, we just released information for 3rd party developers on our site. When will the WEB implementation be available? - It will be available to BUSINESS 2017 subscribers, July 2017 What technology does the WEB implementation use? - WEBDEV 21 I want to get one of the commercial editions now, and get the special introductory price, but what you are showing is not enough for me. What can you do about it? - We are goin

You can now create an account and access the alpha360 erp project. Depending on the number of active users, we may have some problems with our cloud infrastructure, from time to time. The good thing is that it is based on Microsoft Azure, so we can add resources as we need them. We would like to thank all the WX developers who wrote to us and gave us their ideas and support for the project and of course for their patience. At first we tried to find a "ready solution" to support the project. We soon found out, that it would be too difficult to implement on top of a "ready solution" and keep the cost within our budget. Especially since we wanted to have free access for unlimited users. So instead we "built" our own WEB app to support the project and this was really tough. But this is another story ... So register for free, take a look around the site, download the first version of the ERP, send us your comments and when you are ready and
