If Odoo is getting too tight, we'll build what your business actually needs.
Odoo is a solid starting point when you're validating a business: you get CRM, billing, inventory and accounting for a reasonable fee. The trouble starts when your operation diverges from Odoo's other 5,000 users. Each new flow becomes a module you pay for, another you have to maintain, and another that breaks on every upgrade.
When does it pay to stay with Odoo?
If your operation fits a standard Odoo, no need to reinvent anything. For a business that invoices, runs a generic stock, books with its accountant and has no industry-specific flows, Odoo Online solves the day and costs little.
If you've been on Odoo for over a year and feel you're working for Odoo instead of the other way around — custom modules, consultancies billing on top, every release breaking something — it's time to stop fighting a mould and build your tool. Custom software costs more upfront; if your operation justifies it, it pays back in the medium term.
Odoo vs. custom software.
Exit plan from Odoo without losing data.
- 01
Audit of your current Odoo
1–2 weeks. We map which modules you use, which are custom and which processes don't fit. We decide what to migrate and what to rethink.
- 02
Data model design
A schema that reflects how your business works, not how Odoo's 5,000 users work. No fields you don't need.
- 03
Historical migration
What you need to keep from Odoo is scoped at kick-off and migrated with a cross-verification plan before switching off the old system.
- 04
Controlled coexistence
For 2–4 weeks, both systems live together. We gradually shift weight from Odoo as confidence grows in the new one.
- 05
Shutdown and normal operation
Odoo is left as a read-only archive and the live operation moves to the new system. Flat monthly maintenance.
What people ask us on the first call.
01 How is the migration budget calculated?
Closed investment at kick-off to build the MVP that replaces the critical modules, then a flat monthly maintenance fee. No per-user pricing. We give you a closed quote before starting.
02 How long does a migration take?
The MVP that replaces critical operation is built in short sprints. The full Odoo exit is planned at kick-off based on data volume and custom modules.
03 Can we take our data to the new system?
Data migration is assessed at the start of the project, depending on the modules you use and how much history is worth keeping. When it applies, we leave a cross-verification plan before shutdown.
04 What about e-invoicing requirements?
The system adapts to the billing requirements that apply to your activity. If your business has a specific obligation (invoice format, VAT books, integration with your accountant), it's settled within the MVP scope.
05 Is it suitable for a small company?
Depends on how much custom you already have. If your Odoo is almost clean, it's probably not worth it. If you have several custom modules or different partners adding layers, it fits.
