Open Systems Foundation

Open Source
apps for the
Salesforce community.

Useful Salesforce-native apps — built in the open. For non-profits, NGOs, governments, institutions, schools, SMBs, and anyone running Salesforce in service of something bigger than next quarter.

What we stand for

Real software, in the open, for the people who need it the most.

Free and Open Source

Every app is open source under a permissive license. No paywall, no gated features, no upsell ladder.

Native to Salesforce

Built on the platform you already run. Install from AppExchange or GitHub and stay inside your org.

For the community

Made with non-profits, NGOs, governments, schools, and small teams in mind.

How we work together

Supporting the Salesforce community

Choose the form that fits. We rely on result-driven scoping and open collaboration.

01

Community Support

Support & Setup

Pro bono setup and technical guidance for organizations using OpenSF apps. We help you navigate installation, configuration, and training so you can focus on your mission.

  • Need help getting our free apps running in your org?
  • Struggling to configure Salesforce-native tools for your specific process?
  • Can't find the answers you need in the documentation?
02

Open Source Product Strategy

Product Development

We build the apps that the community needs but nobody is selling. From ideation to AppExchange, we help you develop and launch open source solutions.

  • Relying on spreadsheets because native Salesforce apps are out of reach?
  • Have a great idea for a public-good tool but don't know how to build it?
  • How do we bridge the gap from "fork on GitHub" to "live on AppExchange"?
03

Architecture & Technical Health

Consulting

Deep-dive assessments of NGO and non-profit Salesforce instances. We find the technical debt and data silos that slow you down, then we build a path toward a cleaner org.

  • Is your Salesforce instance a mess of legacy technical debt and workarounds?
  • Why does it feel like our CRM is working against us rather than for us?
  • How do we scale our impact without scaling our licensing costs?
04

Partnerships

Community Contribution

OpenSF is a platform for collaboration. We provide the expertise for developers and organizations to work together on the shared tools that define the Salesforce ecosystem.

  • Want to contribute your skills to tools built for the public good?
  • How do we help the Salesforce community where profit is not the target?
  • Looking for a way to partner with others solving the same problems?
Who we support

Pro bono Salesforce work, on the side

Beyond the apps, we donate Salesforce admin and consulting time to organisations doing work that matters.
