Using Virtual Machine with ERPNEXT

Dear All,

I don’t have a good experience with Linux, so I am thinking of using ERPNEXT on a virtual machine with windows operating system.

Will this work fine? What are the expected problems?

Best Regards,

Hey @hhashiesh

You should start using the VM if you want. If problems arise, it is possible to migrate to your server or cloud. So don’t worry and just dive in.

From top of my head, possible problems include difficult to support remotely, and you lose anywhere access using Internet unless you keep the machine running.

Thanks, I can use the cloud and an updated version on my server at the same time?

Yes. But it doesn’t sync data between them. Both of them will be independent data store.
