Odoo Reviews

I work in the legal industry and use Odoo to communicate between the legal, finance, and sales departments.

The most valuable features of Odoo are its customization and the fact that I can add modules whenever I want to the solution and the customization.

The solution's reporting could be improved.

I have been using Odoo for six years.

I rate Odoo a seven out of ten for stability.

I don't know if the solution can be scalable for bigger organizations, but it is scalable with regard to modules.

Odoo provides great technical support.

Positive

The solution’s initial setup is easy.

The solution's deployment involves installing the software, doing some environmental changes, and customizations, which may take weeks if we have to make a lot of changes.

On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate Odoo's pricing a six out of ten.

Overall, I rate Odoo an eight out of ten.

I use Odoo in my company since it is easy to use and learn. Our company's employees have no complaints about the product since they received training to use it. In general, it is not a complicated software to use. Though the product was an ERP solution earlier, it is now useful as an ERP and CRM tool.

The software cannot contribute to decision-making, and it becomes an area where Odoo can invest in improvements, considering areas like AI and ML, where there are shortcomings.

There are areas in the solution that require improvement. My company moved to Odoo to use it as our main cloud application and system software. It is easy to use and easy to reach out to the configuration system. The stability of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required.

I have been using Odoo for four to five years.

Stability-wise, I rate the solution a seven to eight out of ten.

It is a scalable solution.

About 15 employees in my company use the solution.

Though there are plans to increase the use of the solution in our company, I need feedback on the product from my company and the country in which I operate, because of which I am plainly using the software at the current stage.

Though there is technical support from Odoo, I need to ask our company's account manager to grant me access to contact Odoo's support team.

The product's initial setup phase was easy.

The solution is deployed on the cloud.

The solution can be deployed in three months maximum.

The installation part of the solution was managed in our company with the help of a consultant.

There is a need to pay towards the licensing costs attached to the solution. It is not an expensive solution, especially in my country.

Odoo can be useful for small websites carrying out campaigns involving ten to fifty or a maximum of a hundred people. It is a solid platform, but you should move to another solution in case the number of users crosses the limit of a hundred.

It can cover sites in terms of sales processes, projects, and the point of sale. The product also helps users manage the areas of inventory and purchase. The tool provides a proper vision for a small company.

I rate the overall solution a seven out of ten.

Establishing the implementation relationship poses no challenges for us. We possess independent implementation capability, customizing the platform to meet client requirements. Our role involves both consultation and customization. Additionally, for private hosting, we offer cloud hosting support.

What I appreciate most about this solution is its ease of customization compared to other products. Odoo is straightforward and simpler to customize. Additionally, it offers stability by decentralizing the entire ERP with multiple products, making management and support more efficient. Moreover, the availability of talent in India is a key advantage, as the salaries for Odoo professionals are relatively lower than SAP or Oracle ERP professionals. This makes it easier for us to find suitable talent for projects seamlessly.                 

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.

I have experience with Odoo. 

Currently, I would say, though I'm not very familiar with all the details, we haven't encountered any scalability issues. I would rate it around eight or nine. While it may not be as scalable as SAP, I hesitate to give a definitive rating without complete clarity. Nevertheless, so far, there have been no scalability issues. 

We haven't needed any technical support. We are fully capable of handling any challenges ourselves and have never reached out to the support team for assistance.

It is very easy to setup.It varies based on client requirements. Odoo offers a fast solution, especially for clients opting for the subscription model, providing access to the latest features. Some clients prefer the community edition, a newer version of Odoo available without licensing fees. In this case, they need to host it themselves. We accommodate both options based on the client's needs. While not all features are available in the community edition, we ensure it meets the client's requirements.

I would rate this product on pricing as a six. If it is a SaaS solution, it is fixed. It is reasonably expensive.

On a scale of one to ten, with one being the worst and ten being the best, I would rate it an eight. In fact, one of the clients provided excellent feedback. They went live about one and a half years ago, having transitioned from a different ERP system to Odoo. The CEO sent a message expressing satisfaction with the lightning speed and the ability to access reports on a mobile device. It was very impressive and interesting for them.

We use Odoo for warehouse development, production, IT, administration, and human resources. Every department in our company uses Odoo. 

Odoo is open source, so we can develop it and adjust it to our requirements. It's easy to work with. 

Odoo could be better integrated with our warehouse management system. 

I have used Odoo for 10 years. 

I rate Odoo eight out of 10 for stability.

Odoo is scalable. We've used it for about 10 years with no problems. Our company has about 200 users. 

i consulted the forums a few times in the first year when I was still learning to use Odoo. 

We previously used SAP, but we switched Odoo because it's open source. 

It wasn't easy to deploy Odoo initially. It took me a long time when I first installed it, but it has gotten easier over the past 10 years. The basic installation took me about a week because I had to learn how to use the solution. Now, I can deploy Odoo in 10 minutes.  

We pay an annual license.

I rate Odoo eight out of 10. I recommend Odoo if you want to improve and develop IT and other services at your company. Odoo is a complete solution.

We are a partner of Odoo in Venezuela. We implement Odoo for our clients, and we also use it in our own company. We use Odoo to handle all the administrative processes in the business. We use the helpdesk module to take care of our customers' needs and support their needs. We can also control all the work that we have with them, what we are waiting for, what is open, and what we have to close on priority due to an emergency.

We use the project module for the implementation process. We prepare the steps of the implementation. We also use other modules. We use, for example, CRM for the relationship with our customers and the business that has been brought for the implementation of the tool. We also work with production or manufacturing companies to implement Odoo.

We are working on version 15, but we are coming from version 13.

I like the helpdesk module, and I like the simplicity of integration among their modules. All the modules are very well integrated, and you can move among the modules in an easy way. It's user-friendly. The information that I have is secure and stable across all the modules. It offers everything we need for the business in one system. Everything is integrated, and there is consistency.

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. I will recommend keeping a version for two or three years, releasing minor changes, and then launching a new version with all the features. The release duration should be a little bit longer. The development teams should adapt quickly to these continuous changes.

I've been using Odoo for three years.

It's very stable. We didn't have any technical issues with it. We didn't have any technical issues in the cloud. We didn't have shutdowns or any issues with losing data. It's very stable. I'd rate it a nine out of ten in terms of stability.

It's easy to scale. It scales very well. We can start with two or three modules and then integrate more modules in an easy way. It's highly scalable. I'd rate it an eight out of ten in terms of scalability.

In our company, we have 35 users because we use Odoo for our core system, and our customers have more than a thousand users.

As a partner, we have a direct way to interact with Odoo, but we have customers who have used Odoo's customer service, and they received answers very fast. I'd rate their support a seven out of ten. It's good, but it can be improved.

Positive

We came from SAP in Venezuela. We used to implement SAP, but SAP left the country due to issues in Venezuela. We started looking for an ERP to help us in our business, which is to implement ERPs. 

We are a partner of Odoo in Venezuela, and we implement Odoo for our clients. It's easy to implement. Once you understand the relationship between different modules, you can set it up in a short period of time. I'd rate it an eight out of ten in terms of the ease of the setup.

All of our customers currently are on the cloud. Its implementation duration varies. We do the presentation for two months, and then we have the implementation for nine months to twelve months. It depends on the number of modules and the complexity of the customer. We have some customers who don't know their processes very well, so we have to spend a lot of time with them at the beginning to discuss their processes and their data before we start to implement it. On average, in four or five months, you can set up and start taking advantage of the fully implemented system.

The number of people required for implementation varies, but generally, it doesn't require more than five people. Usually, there are one or two functional consultants and a project leader. There may be one or two developers for localization and other things. 

We have seen an ROI. We have the opportunity to see how our customers receive a return on this investment. They have improved and standardized a lot of processes. They changed manual work to automated work.

Its pricing is well-received in Latin America. They sell by the user. In October 2022, they changed the way they sell Odoo. They commercialized Odoo. They now sell by the user. The cost of a user is $13.5 five per month for Latin America, which is lower than other ERPs.

We have to split the cost of the solution into two parts. The first one is the license cost from Odoo, which is a subscription method, and then there is the project pricing, which is a one-time cost for setting up and implementing the system. The license is a subscription for which you pay annually.

We evaluated Dynamics and a few others. In the end, we decided based on the price, the business solution, and how easy it was to learn how to work with it.

While implementing any ERP, not just Odoo, you have to know your processes very well. You need to know your processes before you start to implement any ERP. You need to know what you are going to set up. If you don't know what you need, you are going to have problems.

Overall, I'd rate Odoo an eight out of ten.

We primarily use the solution for customer relationship management, accounting, sales, human resources modules and the basic modules for a company. We deploy it on public cloud.

We have all our information centralized and automated based on finance, accounting, and purchase flows. It is more organized within the company so it has prevented us from struggling with information disseminated in different PCs or computer folders. Through this, we can pull the information from one application containing all the information needed for running our company.

There is no particular feature we find valuable as we find the whole solution valuable because it's an enterprise solution with several modules. It's convenient that we have an all-in-one holistic solution.

Each year they launch a new version, and the user experience is really good. The solution is complete and it has more than 60 modules. You can go to the community and explore more than 400,000 applications from any person that decides to develop the application. So it's a comprehensive community that adds value to the product.

There are some modules, like documents, that can be included in the community edition because they have the most important features in the enterprise edition. Sometimes, there are features that cannot be opened in the community edition and from a user perspective. We would like to have all the modules in the community edition and enjoy all the functionalities.

For example, when we are trying to use a document function for scanning an invoice, we need to buy credits for each invoice, which can get a little bit complicated. Hence, they can simplify the business model for credits related to certain specifications or modules.

We have used the solution for three years and are currently using version 13.

The solution is stable.

The solution is scalable.

It takes between eight hours and a day to deploy the solution.

We implemented the solution in-house, and maximum of staff are required for deployment.

I rate the solution an eight out of ten. The solution is good but can be improved by simplifying the business model for credits related to certain specifications or modules.

We have experience with Microsoft 365, SAP Business One, Oracle Fusion, and Odoo. After evaluating all four ERPs, we found Odoo to be a comfortable choice for us due to its user-friendly interface, customization options, and the convenience of working within our own environment.

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.        

It's too early to make a definitive statement about Odoo as we are currently in the implementation stages. Once the implementation is complete and the system is up and running, we'll be able to provide feedback on its effectiveness and suitability for our needs. The implementation is very straightforward, and the system is easy to operate, similar to working with a spreadsheet. If there's one thing that could significantly enhance the system, it would be incorporating more AI capabilities.

It is currently in the implementation stage, and we've been working on it for about three months now.

So far, it's working well. Since it's an open-source solution, we have the flexibility to integrate or develop almost anything into it. It appears to be user-friendly, and even for users with legacy systems, it seems easy to navigate and use.

We haven't reached that stage yet, but so far, the response time has been good. The real test will be when everything is fully implemented. 

Positive

I have experience with SAP HANA and SAP 355, and both are excellent. However, the choice depends on the scope of work, financial considerations, and resource availability. Odoo turned out to be the most economical and user-friendly option for us, especially considering the challenges in finding SAP resources in Pakistan.

The ease of implementation is quite good. Currently, I would rate it around seven to eight.We have completed a stage of the implementation process, and currently, we are working on meeting all the T.V. requirements. As for integrations, we are actively involved in two tasks. First, we are importing five years' worth of data into Odoo using their well-structured templates and CSV file capabilities. Second, we are integrating with Primera, and so far, the testing has been successful, and everything seems to be working well.

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.

I would keep my rating at eight. The deployment has been smooth, with minimal changes required. However, I may have a more comprehensive assessment after Monday when the Odoo team is scheduled to explain various aspects, considering the numerous modules we have installed.

I use Odoo to streamline my business operations. It handles financial transactions, inventory, purchasing, event management, and resource management.

Move processes to the digial domain, streamline integations with other applications, get more done in less time.

What I find the most valuable about Odoo is its simplicity. You can get a full process up and running in hours, compared with days or weeks in other ERP solutions.

Odoo could improve its newsletters and social media campaign features, which currently feel a bit weak. The JSon RPC API seems a bit outdated.

I have been using Odoo for three years.

I would rate the stability as a nine out of ten. We have only had an issue with it once when external APIs did a lot of concurrent requests.

I would rate the scalability of Odoo as a ten out of ten. We have about 15 users at our company but there is no limitations I see to grow. 

There is no direct support from Odoo. You have to choose an implementation partner who then provides the support. So, the quality of support depends on the partner you pick. If you have a good implementation partner, the support is generally okay, but it comes down to that choice.

Neutral

Before using Odoo, I had experience with various solutions like SAP ERP, SAP S/4HANA cloud, and different smaller accounting-focused ERP systems.

The initial setup is simple. Deployment took about a month or two, as processes were added later.

With an implementatin partner, though they were not a perfect match. Choose your partner wisely!

We have seen a return on investment with Odoo very quickly.

Odoo looks very cheap, as you get all modules for a fixed price per user. However, if you need more than 200 users, other solutions (even SAP) may turn out to be cheaper based on their pricing model. Odoo is very affordable for small and midsize companies.

Microsoft Navision, SAP Business One.

I highly recommend giving Odoo a try. It is the best ERP on the market in my opinion. There is no reason to use something else. Overall, I would rate Odoo as a ten out of ten.
