Carlos  Cardona - PeerSpot reviewer
Operations Manager at Visual K
Powerful accounting functionality, easy to implement, and same day support response
There is a tool in Infor VISUAL that is called Costing Utilities, they should make the functionality more flexible. In a future release, if they could add a CRM incorporated into the core of the solution that would be awesome. Additionally, a more flexible project model. They have a project model, but it's very challenging to set up values.
ThomasPetrou - PeerSpot reviewer
Consultant at Mazi4u
Integration across functionalities has streamlined business operations and improved cost efficiency
Odoo's documentation needs improvement, as there are areas that are not well-documented. Additionally, some underlying technologies need refactoring to more modern structures. Although it's not immediately necessary since the system works, changes to the architecture would be beneficial. From the transition from version 17 to 18, it appears they are aware and have begun addressing some of these concerns.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable features of Infor VISUAL are its powerful accounting, multicurrency functionality, and production aspects. We implement the manufacturing for many customers. These are the main goals of the solution."
"Odoo is widespread in a lot of different industries, and the most powerful feature of Odoo in the manufacturing industry is the forecast."
"I find the financial module, along with the integrations of projects and the HR human resource module, to be the most valuable aspects of Odoo."
"The most beneficial feature of Odoo is its wide community and store, allowing users to purchase solutions and resolve any problems quickly."

Cons

"There is a tool in Infor VISUAL that is called Costing Utilities, they should make the functionality more flexible."
"The solution's reporting could be improved."
"There is room for improvement in Odoo's technical support."
"Odoo's documentation needs improvement, as there are areas that are not well-documented."
"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."
"Odoo’s asset management, supply chain, and advanced manufacturing should be improved."
"Odoo can invest in improvements, considering areas like AI and ML, where there are shortcomings."
"Odoo could improve its newsletters and social media campaign features, which currently feel a bit weak."
"The reporting and the interface could definitely be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"There is a need to pay towards the licensing costs attached to the solution. It is not an expensive solution, especially in my country."
"The price of the solution depends on the use case. However, it can be expensive and we are paying annually."
"The cost is expensive but cheaper than some other competitors."
"The pricing is quite affordable, especially when compared to other products, making it a cost-effective choice."
"Odoo is straightforward in terms of costs. You pay the vendor for both the software and implementation. We selected one of the twelve certified vendors for implementation in our local area, opting for the vendor named Four Zero Five."
"Currently, we pay around 5000-6,000 USD per month, though I am not sure. We have to pay additionally for maintenance and support."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one means high price, and ten means low price, I rate Odoo's pricing a five or six out of ten."
