Or

CRM

OroCRM

OroCRM is an enterprise-grade open-source CRM built on Symfony, with workflow automation, marketing-automation tooling, and a B2B-oriented sales pipeline. Oro's dedicated oroinc/crm-application Docker image was discontinued in November 2021 (confirmed via Docker Hub: last push 2021-11-18, and its entrypoint no longer runs at all). Self-hosting OroCRM today means running the actively maintained oroinc/orocommerce-application image from the same official docker-demo compose — OroCommerce is Oro's current platform and bundles the CRM feature set.
