Hi everyone.
I’m planning to open a small gym and am looking for management software. I don’t want cloud services or a subscription fee. I use Linux in my personal life and would prefer to keep running that at the business. Does anyone have experience with this type of thing?
I plan to self host all my services and data if possible such as camera systems and maybe even the website (I found a great local website company I’ll be talking with soon).
I did see the subscriptions module. Once you add enough modules it becomes a paid service. I have yet to find info on if Odoo is subscription based or a one time payment. I don’t mind paying for a software but do not want a subscription service.
You can easily host the community edition in Docker or otherwise. Odoo has a steep learning curve but it’s very versatile. It can definitely do what you describe.
That’s good to know. I’ll look into the Docker image. Thank you
No worries. It has a stripe integration, too, so it’s easy to handle payments without having to hold customers’ credit card info.
it is subscription, you pay per user per month. It is quite cheap imo, but I understand if you don’t want to pay any subscription. But in that case you can just try to self host it instead.
Okay I see. I’ll have to check how much it is. So this can be self hosted for free with the tradeoff of having to figure out how to do that? If that’s the case then I could even start off with the ease of the subscription and over time get my self hosting setup figured out.
