I'm not sure if it is still entirely open source, but it started that
way. I think they've added on features that are closed. (some may simply
be built with Odoo itself) The base package is still available as far as
I'm aware, and it is pretty powerful, but likely overkill for most small
businesses. They also don't make it easy to build it and get up and
running, preferring to 'guide' you to their paid support offerings.
Odoo is more of a tool to build an app, rather than a business app itself.

Well ... if it is really "open software" they would have to make the
source code available for free (technically can charge reasonable cost
for a copy on medium -- the 'rule" was made before we got things by
download). The "open software" rules do NOT forbid charging for
providing executables, support, etc. The originally concept was that
nobody could charge excessively for that or somebody else would step in
and provide at a more reasonable price. Yes, I am old enough to have
followed the original "open software" discussions real time.
