Karaka

The phpOMS framework is primarily developed for the Karaka application which is a modular web application for small to mid sized companies that need CRM, ERP, Intranet and/or CMS functionalities and much more. The framework is also used in some other tools and websites which compliment the Karaka web application and provides the necessary php functionality.

With Karaka you have one partner who can provide all the tools and software solutions you are used to at fair and reasonable prices even for small organizations and companies/startups. Our solutions can be used independently from each other or fully integrated with other solutions we provide. By choosing Karaka as your partner you'll be able to adjust your software based on the changes in your requirements without worrying about integration and workflow optimization.

Philosophy

We believe software should support a business in it's daily tasks and growth in a very efficient way without frustration. In order to achieve this we constantly take feedback from our customers and expand and improve our software solutions.

Since we believe in our software and transparent business model you can live test parts of our application and it's modules in our demo application at https://karaka.app (user: admin, pass: orange) without any registration or inquiry. This can be done even during the development phase.

Development Status

Currently Karaka is still developing the first Alpha version. As soon as we have a running Beta version we are allowing external testers to use our software and a selected amount of inhouse developed modules. The phpOMS framework is the component which is developed the furthest and already provides a large amount of functionality which is required by the whole project.

General updates can be found in our info section at https://karaka.app/info and developer updates can be found in our developer section at https://karaka.app/dev. In our developer section you can also check out the automatically generated reports such as code coverage, code style, static analysis etc. as well as our code style guide lines and developer documentation.
