1. What is OpenMiracle?
OpenMiracle is an open source accounting software which is an invaluable resource
for modern business; from small firms to large and complex business organizations. It
allows detailed tracking of financial transactions and near instantaneous reporting and

2. Why it has been a open source?
We believe accounting software market is a huge market. Few software products are
dominating in this market. As a result, companies make standard products with fixed
features. So customization according to user needs is almost impossible or expensive. Not
all business in the whole world is same, its business process, strategy, difference in delivery
model and many other factors making each business different. Then how is it possible to
use a single product with same facilities in all business in the world? We believe it’s
impossible. Clients are sacrificing their requirements and it’s affecting their business. So we
decided to develop a product which is people's choice. Clients will get ultimate power and
they can decide what their system is. They can customize according to their needs. They
can get support from anywhere instead of a single company. They can share the modified
software with their friends. It’s about the freedom, freedom to know.
