Odoo

Revolution in ERP systems

Comments: We are still implementing Odoo in our company and still not going live, but at this point everything is going great.

Pros:

Odoo is one of the best ERP systems in the world, I like that Odoo is an open source and can be easily customized to cover all your needs in any type of business. We are still implementing Odoo and I like how easy and flexible is the system. Also, it covers everything about any business type to be analyzed.

Cons:

It is somehow hard to learn and as an administrator you need to know many things and it does not have many learning sources on the internet.

Alternatives Considered: Dynamics 365, Omega System and SAP Business One

The best Open-Source ERP

Comments: Odoo is a very good workflow management software. It offers a variety of powerful and intuitive tools that simplify the management of finance, accounting, human resources and sales. The user interface is very intuitive and easy to learn, allowing me to start managing projects quickly and efficiently. The software is fully customizable with additional modules available that allow users to create workflows tailored to their specific needs.

Pros:

Odoo offers a multitude of features that can be adjusted to specific business needs, and is very easy to use. In addition, the platform is kept up to date and is constantly improved with new features and updates to adapt to developments in technology and business.

Cons:

some advanced features like cloud services integration can be cumbersome to set up. Additionally, there are limitations in its ability to automate certain processes and to perform complex tasks.

Very hard to customize

Comments: In order to learn the functionality of ODOO, I personally signed up for membership and paid for full year. After signed up, i found some of the tutorial video cannot accessable with my membership. then I become the learning partnership and paid 990 dollars for a year. Then, from that week, I watched tutorial video and start to learn with more details. However, today I received an email, they said I used extra" and force me to upgrade to "enterprise type" and treat me to deactivate my account if i dont upgrade. Here is the emailDear Odoo user,We have detected more users and/or apps* (*Odoo Online only) in use than provisioned for in your current subscription. A quote has been automatically created to adapt your subscription to the extra usage.....Please note that if you fail to regularise this situation before 2023-03-23, we will have no choice but to deactivate your Odoo database."So, that is not true you can use all apps with your subscription, and it is not also true to use this system in your business the whole day, if you run your business 10 hours a day and 7 days a week, you will have to pay extra forcefull , otherwise they will activate your database.

Pros:

May be, it is good for very simple operational business, like little restaurant, or little store. If you dont need to customize, it is easy to use and easy to learn.

Cons:

At the beginning , it seems easy to use, but in real practice, very hard to customize. After adding or changing the basic functions, they dont work as expected, especially, the purchase, sale and inventory numbers are not coordinating.

Odoo: A Flexible, Scalable Business Management Platform

Comments: I appreciate the software's modularity and adaptability, which permit me to tailor the platform to my organization's specific requirements. I have access to a comprehensive set of tools for managing various aspects of our business operations thanks to the software's numerous modules and features.Although the user interface and technical complexity of some of the modules have presented some challenges, I have found that the available resources, such as documentation and support, have been helpful in overcoming these obstacles. Additionally, I value the global user and developer community's ongoing contributions to software enhancement.Overall, I believe that Odoo is a powerful and scalable software platform that can assist businesses of all sizes and industries in better managing their operations.

Pros:

There are a number of things about Odoo that I like as an employee who uses it. First and foremost, I appreciate that it is an open-source platform, making it extremely customizable and flexible. Because of this, I am able to customize the software to meet the particular requirements of my organization and to modify it as our requirements change over time.I also like the software's modular design, which lets me choose and use only the modules that are relevant to my job and duties. Because of this, the software is easier to use and more streamlined, and I don't have to deal with too many features and functions.Additionally, I like that Odoo offers both cloud and on-premise deployment options, allowing me to select the method of deployment that best suits the requirements and preferences of my organization.Overall, I believe that Odoo is a highly adaptable and scalable software platform that can assist businesses of all sizes and sectors in better managing their operations.

Cons:

As an employee who uses Odoo, I believe that a few things could be improved. Something that I like least about the product is that the UI can be to some degree confusing and overpowering at times, especially for new clients who are curious about the product. Although the software's modular design is generally advantageous, it can make it challenging to navigate the various modules and features, which can be frustrating.Another problem I've encountered is that configuring and using some of the software's modules might necessitate more technical knowledge. Even though there are resources to help users with implementation and support, it can still be hard to use all of the features if you don't know a lot about the technology behind them.I have found that the expense of a portion of the undertaking releases can be a bit high, especially for little and moderate sized organizations with restricted financial plans. Even though the community edition is free, it might not have all the features and functions that some businesses need, making it hard to justify the enterprise edition's price.

An open-source business solution

Comments: The setup is easy, it has many integrated solutions for sales, procurement and inventory, its menu is easy to navigate, and its cost is relatively cheap compared to other similar platforms.

Pros:

Something that I like about Odoo is that it is not a closed platform, but rather that it has an open-source development model, this is excellent since it has a community that provides many usability contributions. It has an all-in-one platform concept, it is a CRM, an electronic commerce manager and project management, it is a very well-integrated platform.

Cons:

If you're from another platform and you want to migrate a lot of data, it will be a bit complex, it's not that easy, it's something developers should work on, to avoid so many frustrations. Its platform sometimes presents certain Bugs and lags which causes the work to be delayed, it still needs better optimization. Although it has an open source community, it still lacks a section of tutorials and proper guides for users.
