A powerful all in one tool that just needs some customization.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Odoo for the entirety of our backend workflows. Engineering, Sales, Production, Inventory, and shipping are all handled in Odoo's different modules to ensure a centralized data center of truth. The only area we do not use is marketing/ email management. This is an area we are currently working on building out now that we have built out the majority of the applications.

I personally work in sales and primarily work within the Sales and CRM modules to track new leads and convert to sales and close. Occasional use of inventory to check on stock levels or shipping needs.

Pros

  • The activity function is very effective in ensuring that work is effectively handed off between the different departments or as simple reminders.
  • Overall application design is easy to follow and understand.
  • invoicing and sales order system work well for our needs. except in the case of making some edits like removing an item from the sales order lines.

Cons

  • I would like to see easier to configure email templates that do not require a coding background to edit / manipulate.
  • The Email to CRM pipeline often has issues pulling from our shared gmail inbox. I like how emails show on sales order or invoice history
  • We struggle alot with duplicate customer profiles and find that it is hard to keep a company profile organized when there are multiple private emails associated with that company.

Likelihood to Recommend

It is well suited for inventory tracking, shipping and sales work flows. While some customization is needed to make it functional, if done correctly Odoo can serves as a powerful one stop shop for all of a businesses needs.

The ease of customization for email templates, both for sales communications and marketing outreach leaves something to be desired. Perhaps our team hasn't explored this fully enough. I have personally found it intimidating in trying to construct a news letter using the email marketing module.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Odoo CRM for our business needs and it has been one of the right choice we made. It helps us to track all our leads at one place and we can segregate our leads based on the pipeline. Follow-ups is very easy with Odoo and integrating it with our VOIP helped us to check the sales team performance effectively and chance of missing sales is very less as we can see all our lead prospects in one place

Pros

  • Tracking Leads and checking the sales pipeline effectively
  • Doing Followups based on the user needs
  • Easy integration with other API tools like VOIP etc

Cons

  • Integrating WhatsApp API should be more easy

Likelihood to Recommend

We are well known organization with more than 100 leads per day and maintaining all these leads with manually efforts is almost impossible and chance of missing a lead is high. Odoo solved this as we can add all the leads with in this and our sales executives simply pick the leads or automatic assign based on team. It helps us to track the pipeline of sales performance of a particular day or timeline very easily. It helps us to do follow-ups effectively as we can see the all the information right before us

Customizable ERP that's affordable.

Rating: 7 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Odoo as our sales, accounting, manufacturing, service and inventory control system. We had several less efficient systems in place prior and with Odoo we have been able to combine them into one. We also like it because there is a communications system built in. You can tag people in messages and assign activities. It makes it very helpful to reenforce the importance of communication amongst the teams.

Pros

  • Easy to add or archive product.
  • Sorts customer information easily.
  • Integrates with other programs like slack.

Cons

  • We had to work with an implementation team to customize Odoo into something that could truly work for us.
  • I would like to be able to run some reports in an easier way.
  • We did have to implement the use of an iOT box as well for something like printing barcode stickers.

Likelihood to Recommend

Over-all, due to the customizations we were able to make to Odoo, we were able to make it work for our company. We are a company of only about 45 people and I think Odoo can support smaller companies like ours. I don't think it would suit larger corporations with large warehouses. So I gave it a 7 because for the price of the base product and the implementation team, I feel we got what we need. It took us almost a year of meetings and discussions and playing around in a sandbox version to get where we could launch it and then almost another year after the launch of tweaks and changes and support from the team.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We are using Odoo for Sales and Inventory which seamlessly integrates with the products on the websites. This means the Sales teams effectively manage the products on the back end and front end is automatically maintained.

Pros

  • Product integration on websites
  • Customization is endless

Cons

  • It would be great if one could load Marketplace Modules on Odoo.online
  • Documentation is lacking for customers that want to do self-serivce on Odoo.online
  • Not having product dimensions as standard feature is a major downfall

Likelihood to Recommend

Odoo is well priced for small teams and negotiable on enterprise level.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Well I'am an Odoo consultant and also an Odoo user, internally at our company we use it for Sales, E-commerce, marketing, HR, Projects, Recruitment, CRM and more.

Pros

  • Accounting is the core of Odoo, it started as an accounting software back in the days when it was called TinyERP, the key value added in the accounting is the usability, so far now in the market, there is no accounting software as user-friendly as Odoo
  • Scalability, Odoo is highly customizable by developers and end users, once installed with a little bit of practice and training users can maintain Odoo by themselves.

Cons

  • Bug fixing by the Odoo team is not that good, it can take up to a month to solve an issue
  • Not all localizations are included in the core.

Likelihood to Recommend

Odoo is flexible but is a generic suite of business apps, it has the core of every business type but is not vertical for special needs. Good news is that you can modify it and make it work for your industry as you wish, and I think that if you use a consultant for the implementation of Odoo in your company, few things can go wrong. In my experience, things go wrong mostly because of the lack of knowledge of the tool. If you get trained and read the documentation, there are a few things you cannot do with Odoo.
