Open Source Solutions for Small Business Problems

Open Source Book coverHi! You've found a page that was previously published on OpenSourceSmall.biz, a web site associated with the book John wrote called Open Source Solutions for Small Business Problems. This book is available for purchase at Amazon (affiliate link), but we've rolled all the web site content into John's business site.

Open Source Medical Records

Putting together a proposal for a potential client, we've unearthed a couple of cool Electronic Medical Record (EMR) applications. First, the original OpenEMR, apparently started with PostNuke and customized to provide extensive capabilities for managing an office.

Now there's also Clear Health. Clear Health has the benefit of a former OpenEMR developer's experience, and the interface has been greatly cleaned up and enhanced with AJAX to make it clean, usable, and fast. Open source version here.

I've been trying to convince

I've been trying to convince my brother about open source medical software. He is a senior programmer for a software development company that sells proprietary medical practice management software. I'll be showing him these! btw, loved the book! -Filipe

Customer Feedback

If you are a user of business software and are interested in finding out more about open source options for your business or office, you may be a little bit frustrated about the lack of introductory-level information on this topic...

The best single source of such information that I have found so far is John Locke's "Open Source Solutions for Small Business Problems." It provides an excellent introduction to the concepts, advantages, and disadvantages behind open-source.
