How to Install Twenty on Your UGREEN NAS

Twenty is an open-source CRM platform designed as a modern, flexible alternative to traditional solutions like Salesforce and Pipedrive. Twenty aims to address the high costs and data lock-in issues of conventional CRMs. With a user-friendly interface, Twenty offers customizable objects for storing unique data, advanced features for business process management, and the ability to serve as a versatile platform for building various business tools. In this step by step guide I will show you how to install Twenty on your UGREEN NAS using Docker & Portainer.

💡Note: This guide works perfectly with the latest Twenty v1.19.0 release.

I also don’t have any POP-UPs or COOKIES. I have repeatedly been told over the years how much I have contributed to the community. It’s something I love doing and have been honest about my passion since the beginning. But I also Need The Community to Support me Back to be able to continue doing this work.
