Contact us with detailed information about the system ]po[ needs to be installed on and we send you a detailed quote.
Webinars

Professional Evaluation
]po[ is an open-source product which means it can be downloaded, explored and used at no costs. Commercial modules that add additional functionality are available for purchase. Those modules are usually targeted to large enterprise clients. Please note that offering a free product we do not dispose of classic sales channels, which means that we have very limited resources at our disposal to provide services such as free pre-sales support.
To close this gap we offer professional evaluation to help you understand how well ]po[ could satisfy the needs of your company. Professional Evaluation is a packaged service which gives you up to three hours of dedicated consulting to help you determine whether]project-open[ meets the needs of your organisation. This is usually enough time for a conference call, an online demo, or the completion of a Request For Information (RFI) of up to 5 pages. The cost of this service is £250. Please contact us with detailed information and we can arrange a first conference call to clarify the details.
Customisation and Software Development
Make use of the comprehensive knowledge of the ]po[ developers to customise and tailor the application to your specific needs, integrate new packages or develop new extensions. Please get in touch with us to further clarify your particular needs.
