This ILS (integrated library system) is the fruit of the 2010 open source release of a portion of the proprietary solution, Flora Library, itself a successor to Loris and Doris. A number of its functionalities are still marketed as proprietary. Open Flora is chiefly designed for use by libraries.

Its open source functionalities include: UNIMARC cataloguing, inventory management, XML and MARC imports/exports, thesaurus management, SDI (selective dissemination of information), and management of loans, memberships and acquisitions. Its complementary proprietary functions offer OAI and Z3950 servers and clients, classification plan management, publication to office automation software, EDM, purchasing suggestions, RFID interfacing and LDAP.
Open Flora is distributed under the CeCILL(-A) License. The external components and libraries are each governed by their respective licences.
Open Flora is a Java application that runs with a Tomcat 6 server using Linux or Windows XP and above. It supports the databases MySQL and PostgreSQL, Oracle and SQL Server (connectors available for a fee).

“ A éviter absolument, Socle pauvre, code non maintenu. Schema de base de donnée obsolète (réinvention de sequence) , performance horrible du au coeur du produit des années 80. ”

“ La solution a l'air alléchante sur le papier, mais la réalité est assez différente. L'interface est très lente, il faut attendre de longues minutes , même pour les opérations les plus simples. Nous ne trouvons pratiquement aucune des fonctions dont nous avons besoin, même les plus basiques ne sont pas disponibles ou alors trop compliquées. Grosse déception car nous avons perdu beaucoup de temps, et nous pensions avoir trouvé la solution. Dommage. ”

“ OpenFlora a une couverture fonctionnelle très en deçà des standards du marché. Même l'affichage de la couverture d'un ouvrage n'est pas possible dans OpenFlora. Sources difficilement accessibles. ”
