It is easy to use and has a nice interface that is easy to learn and teach your employees.""Odoo is highly scalable.""Odoo is widespread in a lot of different industries, and the most powerful feature of Odoo in the manufacturing industry is the forecast.""It allows us to organize and improve portfolio management.""Being open source, it is more affordable compared to alternatives like Oracle or SAP, and I appreciate how easy it is to customize with the available sources.""We like how the solution is integrated.""With Odoo, being open source is advantageous because we have access to the source code for whatever we develop. This gives us the flexibility to make additions, deletions, or modifications according to our needs without any restrictions. There are no predefined formats that limit our customization options."

More Ellucian Cons →

"I'm uncertain because each year they release a new version with improvements. However, one area that needs significant enhancement is the website, particularly the modern core website. While there's an approach similar to WordPress, it is quite basic at the moment. Besides that, particularly with the POS solutions, we identified potential security issues. This is due to the storage of information on cookies or similar sessions. In cases of Internet-related issues, there's a vulnerability where data might be compromised. The system uses temporary storage until the internet connection is restored, and then it pushes the data to the server or database. This poses a risk, especially in point-of-sale systems, where there could be vulnerabilities for data modification or alteration by unauthorized individuals.""The solution's reporting could be improved.""Odoo lacks a complete dashboard, and the reports are basic. The reporting could be improved by adding some graphics.""Odoo provides their apps on mobile, but it is not good enough, especially for my clients.""Odoo could be better integrated with our warehouse management system.""The solution lacks local API support. Also, it lacks some database integration platforms. In short, it lacks an API integration platform.""It has been difficult to adapt to continuous changes, you have to understand what is new and what is changing in less than twelve months. You can take advantage of the new features, but you have to research them to be able to implement them.""The reporting and the interface could definitely be better."
