I work at a small business ~20 people and we're looking for a self hosted solution to our resource planning software. We have a huge variety of job scopes, skillsets, equipment, and technicians. The owners have a hard requirement for self hosting due to the variety of clients we work for who want to know their data stays within our own country.

We also want to integrate it with QuickBooks desktop, make custom invoices (some clients stipulate a specific invoice format just for them), and also making dispatches.

What are some good options?

@iocase With 20 employees, you'll probably want to look at open source solutions unless you have a significant budget available. To get all your employees on Microsoft Dynamics Nav, for instance, would run about $8000 a month.

The drawback of open source solutions is that you'll likely need a dedicated employee to keep the system running and updated, and there's no higher levels of paid support option if they run into problems.

Here's a pretty good article on using Quickbooks as a core and then attaching open source Inventory Management and CRM integrations that you may find useful.
