Odoo

Pros

Pros

The features available in the Community Edition are mostly enough for what we need to do and is standardises processes across the board. We can then sell other small business work for configuring their own since we use it too. A lot of the business functions and processes are already built in, it is just a matter of activating the module you need and then configure it. The e-commerce feature is the simplest I have used, almost anyone can create products because it was built from a layman's perspective. The community is vibrant and helps with some issues if you have them. You might have to pay a partner for support and added functionality which is mostly once off. For a fraction of the cost, there is no worry of licence renewals just hosting fees.

Cons

Some functionalities which are basic in alternatives are not available even in the cloud version. You need to test third-party apps yourself which you might not have the time for and can break current functionality. Not all issues are addressed in the forums if it is not a common issue; a lot of issues are still open from previous versions. The official documentation is sometimes shallow.

Pros

Has a user-friendly interface thus making it favorable for all of us. Flexibility and it's price is very affordable. Experience a true speed and reduced data entry.

Cons

I can't complain Odoo has really helped me. Kudos good work.

Pros

User friendly and after sales support was excellent

Cons

The subscription model got me almost tied up and dependent. Would have liked more open source

Pros

One platform for everything. If this works how much time would you save to track from Quoting to Sale to Manufacture to Shipping.
What could go wrong?!

Cons

One platform for everything sounds good but then it just does not give you what you need and want. Accounting is a nightmare. Way to complicated to stay on track. And Odoo Support is the worst on Earth.

Pros

Odoo helps us to automize the entire maintenance process with its advance features.

Cons

Odoo can have a easier to use user interface and offer a better experience in management panel.

Pros

User friendly every person can get the hang of it.

Cons

The inventory section of odoo wasn't as helpful as it could of been.

Pros

Not much to like. We hoped for an all-in-one product to save duplicate data entry. What we got was a ton of non-integrated features, complicated workarounds, and compromises, plus expensive uncaring, unresponsive PAID consultants.

Cons

No field service scheduling. Accounting system is overly complex and not suitable for smaller companies that need simple accounting. Calendar started double-booking, Requirement expensive consulting to implement. Tons of work-arounds. Unresponsive, uncaring consultants, expensive consulting fees.

Reasons for Switching to Odoo

Pros

There are a ton of features, more than I would think about any business can make use of, all for an affordable monthly subscription. There are a lot of ways to customize the software to work for your business and improve workflows, and many connectors available for connecting to external API's (my most used one is UPS)

Cons

The huge variety of apps available and extensive options makes it pretty difficult for a beginner to dive in, DIY style. They offer success packs to get you up and going, but they're really expensive (personal subjective opinion, I guess). The free support included with the online subscription is pretty good, and there's some videos online that might get you started, but it'll be a bit of work getting going.

Pros

The flexibility of the system allows us to tailor it to the needs of each of our businesses. And the support is AMAZING!

Cons

It is a BIG system. Trying to get started with a full implementation at once can be a bit overwhelming. It can be a bit intimidating to get started with it on your own.

Reasons for Switching to Odoo

Pros

What I liked most about Odoo is the system's adaptability—it’s incredibly versatile and can be tailored to fit our specific needs. I also want to highlight the outstanding service we received from our consultant, [sensitive content hidden] He’s been extremely attentive and helpful throughout the entire process, making sure we get the most out of the platform.

Cons

What I liked least about Odoo is the way consulting hours are charged and accounted for. We’re concerned about being billed for time spent resolving issues that aren’t our fault, such as bugs or errors within Odoo itself. It would be more reassuring if there was a clearer distinction between time spent on genuine consulting and time spent addressing system-related problems.

The applications are not user-friendly! I'm good at learning software, but this one is foreign and complicated. The customer service is HORRIBLE!

Odoo is easy to customize and use particularly for small and growing businesses who are yet to finalize their needs but must get started on an ERP at the earliest.

Additionally, it facilitates the management of each employee by handling their personal information, documents, contracts, and contact details. I have also used it to perform automatic salary calculations based on their working hours.

Cons

Although Odoo is an excellent tool for management, whether for human resources or other areas, it has integration issues with other systems, which can make it complicated and sometimes require additional development.

Pros

Simplicity and beauty. It's out of the box, yet something an enterprise can use to streamline it's backbone processes, while improving business bottom line. Something that consulting can do as part of the company or freelance.

Cons

It's capability to centralize a knowledgebase, not that the Odoo support is not that good and responsive (because they really are great and responsive), but it would help to have like a knowledge AI aside from documentation and e-learning platform.

Pros

I love Odoo, saves me time with scheduling posts and it is FREE. AMAZING!!!
I am able to offer to my customers and help them get a great start. But then with all the other available program all in one place WOW!! Seriously, Odoo is the way to go and I share it with everyone that comes in my direction. You will love it also....

Limited Flexibility in the Cloud Version: The cloud-hosted version of Odoo (Odoo Online) does not support third-party modules, limiting its flexibility .

Pros

Cons

It is difficult for non-specialists to deal with, and it also requires more facilitation and solving problems with continuous updates
