ProShop is a paperless and web based shop management, ERP, MES and QMS system for manufacturing companies in regulated industries. ProShop was built on the shop floor of a machine shop for nearly 20 years, and it's not like anything you've seen. Built to manage the complex manufacturing environment better than anything else on the market - by an order of magnitude. Never before has there been a system that gives you such insight into every detail of your manufacturing company. ProShop is best described as a Digital Manufacturing Ecosystem (DME). It is 100% paperless, and combines the features found in ERP, MES, QMS, CMMS, and other software categories for machine shops, fabricators, job shops, contract manufacturers and others in regulated industries who need tight controls on their process and want exacting and timely information to make the best and most profitable decisions.

iBBS follows a clever concept by utilizing standard UN*X / Linux tools like inn, alpine, talk etc. in order to provide a compact yet feature rich BBS system. This allows for a high level of customization as additional programs (e.g. ntalk) can easily be added to the corresponding menu (bash) script. iBBS also offers file areas and classic X/Y/Z modem uploads through the default command line tools provided by lrzsz (another clever way of implementing such a feature). However, installation instructions are a bit vague when it comes to configuring xinetd, telnet, inn (NNTP server) which are used as the core technologies behind the iBBS shell script collection. What I like about iBBS is that due to the way it is implemented, your BBS has a more unixish look and feel to it.
