# Complementary software and tools

As a food enterprise operating on the Open Food Network platform, you may wish to also use external software for specific, additional functionalities.  For example, for increased flexibility over invoicing, more in depth accounting, marketing or even analysing your OFN sales.

Some users have already found ingenious ways to use the platform's data with other software, some interesting uses of which we will describe to you. We are also gradually developing integration possibilities, so do not hesitate to contact us if you have a specific need so that we can study it!
