Very nice article, I just wanted to let you now that we have recently started with a new diamond business. I am currently searching for the best & Open Source HR software for my business. I have referred the popular platform of SoftwareSuggest https://www.softwaresuggest.com/hr-software but I am unable to find the best one for my business. Can you suggest me some free and open source software for my Diamond Business ?

It's telling that documentation is not one of the choices. I guess document writers are generic.
