 Open Source without Vendor Lock-In 
====================================

 The Nuxbe core is MIT licensed and public. You can read it, run it yourself and develop it further, even without us.

 What does software without vendor lock-in mean?
-----------------------------------------------

 Software without vendor lock-in keeps running when the vendor changes prices, discontinues the product or you change your service provider. With Nuxbe the open core secures this: it is MIT licensed on GitHub, runs on your own servers and stores your data in a database you can operate yourself.

Operations, customisation and support can sit with us, with a partner or with your own team. The code of the core is the same either way.

What Does Open Source Mean?
---------------------------

 Open source at Nuxbe means: the source code of the core, the flux-core package, is public on GitHub under the MIT licence. You may read it, change it, run it on your own servers and pass it on.

 Not everything is open. Premium packages such as DATEV export, finAPI or the 3CX connection live in private repositories and are provided under a licence. The core runs without them.

 Benefits of Open Source 
-------------------------

### Full Transparency

Inspect every line of code. Know exactly what your ERP system does with your data and how it processes your business information.

### Complete Control

You run the system on your own infrastructure or let us host it. The data sits in your database, and when you run it yourself you install updates when it suits you.

### Developed in the open

Reporting bugs, requesting features and contributing code all happen in the public repository. Every change to the core can be traced there with its history.

 No Vendor Lock-in 
-------------------

 With closed software you depend on a vendor's roadmap, prices and support decisions. With an open core the code stays usable even if you change your service provider.

Transparent Pricing

Use the core system for free. Optional premium plugins with fair, user-based licensing

Your Timeline

Update when you're ready, not when the vendor forces you to

 Frequently asked questions

   Is Nuxbe fully open source? The core is, under the MIT licence and public on GitHub. Premium packages such as DATEV export, finAPI or the 3CX connection are not public and are licensed. 

 Can I run Nuxbe without the vendor? Yes. The core can be installed from the public repository and run on your own servers. Premium packages require a licence. 

 What happens to my data if I switch? It sits in your database, on your own server when you run it yourself. The REST API also lets you read the data in a structured way. 

 Which licence does the core use? The MIT licence. It allows use, modification and distribution, commercially as well, as long as the licence notice is kept.
