Odoo reviews

Duur en veel systeemfouten op nochtans eenvoudige zaken

Opmerkingen: Leek fijn programma en niet te duur... Maar hebben een jaar tijd gespendeerd aan voorbereiding/ implementatie en ondertussen heel veel geld uitgegeven aan voor ons normale zaken die echter niet in het programma zaten. Ook 'golden partner' van Odoo waar we mee samenwerkten was allesbehalve golden en we waren genoodzaakt de samenwerking stop te zetten.

Pluspunten:

Alles gebeurt via internet. Dus gemakkelijk toegankelijk.

Minpunten:

Zeer duur. Lijkt oorspronkelijk goedkoop maar om het product geïmplementeerd te krijgen zoals je het wil ben je heel veel geld kwijt. Essentiële zaken werken niet: enkele vbn een order omzetten naar een verkoopfactuur met korting kontant geeft soms een ander eindbedrag op de factuur (meestal lager eindbedrag)OCR werkt maar half.. je moet steeds nog zelf wijzigingen aanbrengen..Labels afdrukken is na een jaar nog niet inorde. Kan je niet zelf maar moet door een specialist terzake gebeuren.[gevoelige inhoud verborgen] kent Odoo niet.. ook hier zeer omslachtige procedure. Boekhouding is echt een achteruitgang tov vorige pakket dat ik had.

Odoo, een ware openbaring als je met andere paketten hebt gewerkt

Opmerkingen: - Positief, het heeft wat tijd gekost om iedereen op een lijn te krijgen
- Als je uit een spreadsheet gedreven omgeving komt ben je de flexibiliteit wel kwijt, dit geldt echter voor alle ERP systemen

Pluspunten:

- All-in-one, alle data in een systeem, geen koppelingen, geen download en upload - Gebruiksgemak - Flexibele rapportage

Minpunten:

- Financieel is wel even wennen zeker als je een ander pakket gewend bent - Implementatie tijd, door zijn geintegeerdheid moet je heel goed weten waar je mee bezig bent

Mijn eigen ervaring

Opmerkingen: Ik denk dat open source software beter is dan closed source software, want als je open source software gebruikt, bezit je die eigenlijk, en dit is een hoge veiligheidsfactor, maar closed source software huur je die software.

Pluspunten:

Heb je een bedrijf, dan heb je een bedrijfsmanagementprogramma nodig, en hier wil ik je vertellen over odoo. Het is een eenvoudig systeem voor het beheer van werknemers op afstand en het plannen van bedrijfsmiddelen.U kunt ook de financiële status van uw bedrijf en uw saldi volledig synchroon kennen, zodat u de zwakke plek in uw bedrijf kunt ontdekken en deze onmiddellijk kunt versterken. het organiseren van meetings en calls met klanten en medewerkers, het is, kortom, een geïntegreerd softwarepakket om Work efficiënt en volledig onder controle te houden. odoo is een Belgisch bedrijf dat begon met tien werknemers en nu meer dan 9 regionale kantoren over de hele wereld en 5 miljoen gebruikers heeft.

Minpunten:

Wat betreft een open source-programma, ik denk dat er bijna geen defecten zijn. De programmeertaal is Python, en het is heel gemakkelijk, maar misschien moet je code kopen voor een goedkope prijs.

Bizar slechte klantenservice, eindgebruiker is nummertje.

Opmerkingen: Mijn persoonlijke ervaring is niet goed, Odoo gedraagt zich zeer arrogant, en komt niet met concrete oplossingen, eindgebruikers zijn de klos! Als je voor Odoo gaat, denk dan eerst goed na, test alles door, en betaal pas als alles werkt!

Pluspunten:

Functies, voor een goede prijs. Maar dan moet het wel werken zoals geadverteerd, en dat doet het niet.

Minpunten:

Je bent voor het koppelen van een webshop afhankelijk van een 3e partij, de connector waar wij mee werken werk vanaf dag 1 niet goed. De developer van deze connector heeft het bijltje erbij neer gelegd. En Odoo zelf, doet niks om de eindgebruiker te helpen, en verwijzen naar onze partner, die net als ons ook niks kan. Als je een platform aanbied met plugins van 3e partijen, controleer dan op zijn minst de kwaliteit, en als de developer zijn afspraken niet nakomt, dan verwijder je deze van het platform todat ze hun afspraken nagekomen zijn. Als je als eindgebruiker niet betaald word je meteen afgesloten, maar als je een flut-plugin online zet, dan mag je hier geld mee verdienen en je bent niet verplicht om service te verlenen en het probleem op te lossen. Bizar!

Excellent ERP to manage your business operations

Opmerkingen: We used to use spreadsheets before switching to Odoo and the savings in time and effort, plus the accuracy of the information is the main value we receive. Particularly, the Recruitment module helps us to configure an Application Tracking System, and now, we have visibility over KPIs that before was not possible. The implementation of an extension of the CRM module allow us to customize easily the system to our needs too.

Pluspunten:

Odoo provides my company with all the modules needed to manage the business. It is easy to set up, intuitive and the modules are well integrated.

Minpunten:

The Community edition provides a lot of built-in features, but since version 9, Odoo has been moving features from Community version to Enterprise, so I could see some of them, which I was using, unavailable in recent versions.

Overwogen alternatieven: SugarCRM

Redenen om voor Odoo te kiezen: Because managing business operations in spreadsheets it is extremely time-consuming. It requires a lot of coordination and is prone to errors.

Redenen om over te stappen op Odoo: Because provides more modules. The availability in our market of Python developers to extend and customize the platform was another reason.

My Odoo experience

Opmerkingen: Good experience, it does the job for me and for the company

Pluspunten:

Its integrated suite, being open source and its modularity

Minpunten:

the resource intensive, the need for requiring sufficient server resources for optimal performance is chanllenging for us

Redenen om over te stappen op Odoo: Community Support, the odoo community help me a lot to integrate the software

Inexpensive

Opmerkingen: It's been ok. The key difference is the support staff you get, some are good and efficient, others... not so much.

Pluspunten:

it was easy to setup and now all the apps are included in the User License Agreement.

Minpunten:

It is hard to understand the user access structure.I would like more documentation and training on all the modules.It is hard to search for past support ttickets.

Odoo is the greatest free/open-source ERP

Opmerkingen: Odoo's components are seamlessly integrated for a variety of unrelated tasks, which aids in technical and functional workflow comprehension. The system's potential to serve as a one-stop shop for all forms of commercial activity.

Pluspunten:

As far as open-source ERP systems go, Odoo is tops. Odoo's open-source and free community edition comes with a wide variety of useful apps. It also has a more feature-rich premium version called Enterprise.

Minpunten:

Odoo is open source, thus it should be simpler to customize. Nevertheless, it is difficult to track down reliable resources that instruct programmers on the subject.

Organize And Automate Stages With Odoo

Opmerkingen: Starting with the job posting, candidates applying, resume screening, and candidates filtering, it organizes all aspects of resumes. Automated email responses are customizable and set up by us. We can group them by departments and use distinct processes for managing leaves of absence, bonuses, pay scales, etc.

Pluspunten:

It gives us an efficient and transparent recruitment process from screening to onboarding. It allows job postings on the company's website, social media, and other hiring websites. Using features like resume indexing, application tracking, and profile searches, expedites the hiring process. It guarantees that applicants have completed all inspection and screening processes.

Minpunten:

It could be improved by including various testing methods in the hiring procedure. The Odoo recruitment modules require a dashboard.

Seems good on paper but make sure you do not get an inexperienced consultant doing the setup

Opmerkingen: Seems good on paper but make sure you do not get an inexperienced consultant doing the setup

Pluspunten:

Functionality was the thing that made us try Odoo.

Minpunten:

Their service was less than impressive when it came to discussing the fact that they initially assigned an inexperienced consultant to do the implementation

Cheap and Practical ERP

Opmerkingen: We are implementing Odoo for a sister company for food and beverage, Odoo fulfilled our needs.

Pluspunten:

Odoo is one of the cheapest ERP systems in the world, it has all needed modules like financials, project management, and supply chain. Odoo has a nice user interface and easy to use. Odoo is the cheapest ERP system.

Minpunten:

Odoo is somehow weak and is not professional as other ERP systems, in my opinion it can be used for small to medium size companies not for large ones.

Avis odoo

Opmerkingen: I must admit that it is a very good software which allows you to create management modules such as accounting. [sensitive content hidden] staff must also admit that it is the third software that I do not find significant criticism

Pluspunten:

allowed me to create management modules such as accounting, personnel, sales management, human resources management...easy to use

Minpunten:

This is the third software I've come across that doesn't have any significant drawbacks.

Odoo, the best free ERP

Opmerkingen: Odoo's integrated components effortlessly support diverse tasks, enhancing understanding of both technical and functional workflows. For smaller companies, its advantages are apparent—cost-effective implementation and efficient customer portfolio management make it highly favorable. The POS software offers a user-friendly and flexible experience, but there is room for improvement in the hardware.

Pluspunten:

Among open-source ERP systems, Odoo manages to stand out. The open-source and free community edition of Odoo offers a diverse range of valuable applications, while the premium version, known as Enterprise, provides even more extensive features.

Minpunten:

Being open source, Odoo is expected to be easily customizable. However, finding reliable resources to guide programmers on this topic has proven to be quite challenging.

Good features

Opmerkingen: We integrated the product on our time with a project with Google docs, worked fine.

Pluspunten:

All in one product, has a main customisable home page that lets you see whatever you need to see, such as tasks, pending approvals etc. Does have its own schedule and also can integrate with your other schedules which is a nice feature to have.

Minpunten:

The product has been mainly used by small companies, or sometimes small and should adapt to work with large and world wide companies with different entities.

Great Software and Product Horrible Implementation and Support

Opmerkingen: Overall Odoo is a GREAT idea and great product. However with their model and support I believe you will get frusterated. You will bring one your client 1/2 way through your project after spending alot of money or be frusterated the entire time when you need to do anything special with their product. They like to point you to something called a SUCESS PACKAGE but with all due respect when that becomes the reply when you cannot even create a transaction for a purchase you should go with another product.

Pluspunten:

Alot of Features...If you have the patience and the money you can do anything.

Minpunten:

The Support and the Platform is sometimes very vauge. It does not make sense errors out and relys on a module platform for most functionality which makes you reliant on a third party.

Overwogen alternatieven: Bitrix24

Redenen om voor Odoo te kiezen: Shopify nickle and dimed you constantly and took commision on all sales. Their model was self serving and not what we were looking for. However though its self serving in alot of ways it does work for a simple implementation better than Odoo.

Overgestapt van: Shopify

Redenen om over te stappen op Odoo: We did choose it over Shopify but we may for the Customer Service and Support alone and replies like well if you need help with that you will need to PURCHASE a Sucess Packet after spending 800/month for their software we opted to go elseware.

Odoo for ERP, Supply chain, Manufacturing, trading, Ecommerece business

Opmerkingen: We used it to streem line and for effective supply chain and finance, it helped us to determine those key factors, and we customisely made reports for performance of company aswell individiduals.
In supply chain, tradeoff and optimization between shortages and overstocking, cash to cash cycle inprovement made by analysing and bottle necks deteced by odoo.
Longterm pending cases, reporting, email notification for a abnormal or overdue, and over amount transactions helped us to manage finance on a well way specially when we were in crises.
Sourcing rather than manufacturing analyse by customize odoo, in costing and RFQ is wonderful.

Pluspunten:

Easy installation, can be customize as per business scenario, wide support, business features, transaction are supported according to international business tactics. Almost every module available finance, invoicing, quality control, inventory, planning,manufacturing, MRP and DRP. The cross functionalities made odoo awesome, check and control over transactions, users is a powerful tool to control the business, available as Saas, local server aswell can be installed on custom domain. Speedy work, with better GUI, its best for large/medium industry. It perfectly supports Importing, exporting or migration from another ERP. Transactional control, tracing over network is available, secured platform for business. Android app is available, can be worked smartly on it. Purchasing control, Planning control, and inventory scenarios are purely designed on professional approach. Bottle necks, cycle time, EOQ can be configured on it, With configuration it can be run with optimistic, in future AI and automation it can be a advanced supply chain tool. For realtime tracking and tracing like Barcodes, QR codes are available to generate automatically/manually for batches and products.

Minpunten:

Customization is not easier, with depth documentation is required, which is unfortunately is not publicised. Limited database server type, it's somehow difficult to configure with existing dedicated database server. Transaction uniqueness records like algorithm for hitting a specific transaction is not being created, i.e on refreshing or by going back values can be submitted twice. Some pages, do not display properly on android app, specially visuals.

Overwogen alternatieven: Dynamics 365, SAP Business One en iDempiere

Redenen om voor Odoo te kiezen: less control over transactions, business volume and scenarios were not implemented in ERP.

The best Open-Source ERP

Opmerkingen: 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.

Pluspunten:

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.

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.

DO NOT BUY SUPPORT PACK - Outside Source Help

Opmerkingen: I would say this has been an overall average experience. The pros of this ERP system outweigh the very negative start to using this system, and I cannot stress enough to not deal with the Support Pack system as the level of talent of Odoo Project Managers is low. They will overcharge you and not really give you much more than anything you could have expected from a recent graduate out of a college.

Pluspunten:

We loved this for the ERP system of integrating our lead management, supply chain management, quotation system, accounting system, CRM system, and inventory all into one area. We previously had to force together multiple different sites and systems (i.e. Jobber, Quickbooks, Monday/DaPulse) and after many years of growth we simply have outgrown these dated systems and can no longer afford the time to micromanage so many transactions. We also needed automation on multiple areas of our service, which Odoo has been able to provide. After extensive training, NOT FROM ODOO LET ME TELL YOU, we have been able to customize this fairly well to our complicated value add manufacturing processes.

Minpunten:

I have had the worst time with customer service when it comes to Support Pack Hours. Not only were we billed for every millisecond of time, but we were easily overcharged for time as well. One simple email response would take 6-10 minutes of our support park. After asking for a service level document multiple times, they simply have not provided one. They also hid the fact that support pack hours expire. We began our Odoo integration just before COVID hit, and we had to stop the Odoo integration for a few months, only to be met with many hours being used on ODOO EMAILING US for updates on when we would come back. In the time spent with them implementing our systems to Odoo, they easily have dropped the ball so much with such low support that we had to hire a third party consultant to get this system up and running the way THEY MARKETED TO US and how we initially envisioned this working.

"Odoo: the key to more efficient and profitable business management - my testimony".

Opmerkingen: With Odoo, I have been able to solve several important business problems for my company. Firstly, the platform has allowed me to centralise all my business operations in one place, eliminating the need to use several separate software and tools to manage different functions of my business. This has greatly improved the efficiency and productivity of my employees, allowing them to spend less time juggling different tools and more time focusing on their core tasks.In addition, Odoo's project management functionality allowed me to better track the progress of my projects, set clear deadlines and ensure that tasks were properly allocated to team members. This allowed for better collaboration between team members and more efficient management of resources. I was also able to track sales and purchases more efficiently, using Odoo's stock management and invoicing features.Finally, one of the main benefits I have realised from using Odoo is better visibility of my business as a whole. The real-time dashboards have allowed me to track progress in real time, monitor sales and expenses and analyse business performance. This has enabled me to make better and faster decisions based on accurate data rather than estimates or hunches. In short, Odoo has enabled me to manage my business operations more effectively, reduce costs and improve the profitability of my business.

Pluspunten:

What I liked most about Odoo was its ability to provide a complete solution for managing my business. With Odoo, I was able to consolidate all my business operations in one place, from sales and purchasing management to project and human resources management. I also liked the flexibility of the platform, which allowed me to customise processes and functionality to meet the specific needs of my business. Finally, I found Odoo to be very easy to use, even for users without extensive technical knowledge. The user-friendly interface and online tutorials allowed me to get started quickly and take full advantage of Odoo's features. All in all, I found the Odoo solution to be very effective in streamlining my business processes and improving the management of my company.

Minpunten:

Although I really like the Odoo solution, there were a few things that I found problematic. Firstly, I found that some features were less intuitive than others, which meant I had to search longer than I would have liked to find solutions to my problems. Also, the initial installation process of Odoo can be a bit complicated, especially if you are not used to working with open-source software. Finally, I found that the online documentation and community forums were not always very clear, which sometimes made it difficult to find information on specific issues. However, on the whole, these problems were minor compared to the benefits I saw from using Odoo.

We liked them so much we Partnered with them

Opmerkingen: All of my systems and customer data are centralized in one easy to use system

Pluspunten:

As a former Netsuite and Salesforce partner, our clients demanded more in the form of ease of use, mobility and functionality without breaking the bank. We started off by migrating ourselves off of our Netsuite system. This move simplified all of our daily work lives so much, we brought this solution to our client base. From Professional Services, Manufacturing and Warehouse operations, Odoo was an excellent fit and an extremely good value. The company improves the software almost daily and with thousands of prebuilt apps in their app store, adding major functionality and workflow is simple. Also the open nature of the code makes it the absolute most flexible ERP/CRM/MRP software on the market. Odoo maintains a few versions Community(Free) and Hosted(Saas) and Enterprise(Self Hosted). We recommend either Hosted or Enterprise(Most Recommended) for business. The Community edition is mostly for developers to have an easy way to learn the basics. The Enterprise edition is packed with additional advanced features necessary for production use, and is supported by Odoo and the Odoo Partner Channel. Any company in the search for an ERP system should include Odoo in their list.

Minpunten:

Documentation needs improvement. Most documents and answers are not centralized but scattered between Youtube, and Odoo Community and GitHub although they have been building a training portal.

Why Others When Odoo Is Here?

Pluspunten:

From entering Raw Material into company to sell it as a Finished Product and even after sales, Odoo captures all the information with financial impacts in really nice and simple way. Process of goods receipt and delivery with quality checks are simply stunning. Moreover, it's mobile and web based features are reasons to stand ahead with other competitors. It has all features which are essential for any company, with really simple and interactive user experience and can easily integrate with any third party app.

Minpunten:

There should be more features in Quality Module which are compulsory in FMCG and Pharmaceutical industry. There should be parent Manufacturing Order under which sub-orders will lie, so that issuance of product is made separately as per real issuance OR issuance should be made against Work Orders instead of Manufacturing Order. Speed is also another area which should be looked.

Everything in this single platform

Pluspunten:

Sales, buying, stocks, finance, projects, and other essential activities are all integrated. As a result, if the consumer has a standard business flow, they may quickly begin using it. Modification is only necessary if the user's workflow differs from that of a typical organization. Odoo is a very versatile piece of software, and If configured correctly, it may become the business's brain.

Minpunten:

At first, it may seem that too many functions are accessible, but this is not the case. To get things running in a fashion that mirrors your standard process, you'll need to do a lot of adjusting and customizing depending on the business structure and present processes. The pricing is affordable; however, the cost perusers can rise rapidly as additional modules are deployed.
