Linescripts' point of view on enterprise software and the firm itself.
A reading shelf. Articles ship when they earn their place.
Company Perspective is where Linescripts takes strategic positions on enterprise software, the ERP market, the Odoo ecosystem, and the meta-questions buyers ask before they buy. Less technical, more strategic. Articles that read like an opinion from the firm — about the industry, not about a specific engagement.
This category includes annual reviews of where the Odoo ecosystem is going, takes on services-firm economics (utilisation vs realisation, the discipline of dedicated teams), and the firm's stance on questions like "should we self-host or use managed?" or "should we customise Odoo or replace it?"

Read the articleWritten partly for engineers evaluating Linescripts as an employer: what we look for, what we do not, and how the hiring bar connects to the way engagements run.
Read the articleThe firm's stance on the platform we standardized on, with the honest half included: the situations where Odoo is the wrong tool, and we say so.
Read the articleCompany Perspective is the strategic counterpart to Articles & Opinions. Where Articles & Opinions argues a position on a specific topic, Company Perspective takes a position on the firm's place in the industry — its operating philosophy, its stance on market questions, its take on the work itself.
