Pros
"The solution is easy to use and not complicated. Also, it is easy to get trained on. Also, there is good information available on the web. The GP community is quite broad and there are many blogs online.""We have gained the capability to control and address various issues within the financial module effectively.""You can track everything from beginning to end quite easily.""It is strong in integration.""It's enhanced by a subscription billing add-on, to efficiently automate billing and invoicing, particularly due to our substantial customer database.""The solution offers integrations with other software as well. We have integration with Microsoft Office where we can do Word and Excel, etc.""The most valuable feature is financial control. The accounting aspect allows us to manage our clients and payments.""The most valuable feature is the ability to easily update and maintain accurate data across all aspects of our operations."

"The most valuable feature of Odoo is the integration it provides and the many modules available.""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.""What I find the most valuable about Odoo is its simplicity.""The most valuable feature of Odoo is the fingerprint feature.""The most valuable feature of Odoo is its payroll localization.""I find the financial module, along with the integrations of projects and the HR human resource module, to be the most valuable aspects of Odoo.""We like how the solution is integrated.""Odoo is open source, so we can develop it and adjust it to our requirements. It's easy to work with."

Cons
"The issue we're encountering is that it's primarily designed for independent installations and not initially structured as a cloud-based solution, which has led to challenges with connectivity.""As for room for improvement, they have different modules, project and analytical accounting, but it will be good to have that kind of part in the standard package. To have that additional reporting functionality where you can add an attribute or something, which you can report again. So you can analyze the cost by not just natural accounts but also by a project, without having to go through another module edit on top and then the other module edit on top. The more modules you add, sometimes it doesn't work that well. Additionally, it would be easier to have the solution on the cloud. That's our consideration. We are trying to move all our systems to the cloud, and GP is one of them that we are going to move in the next couple of years. I would rate the solution seven or seven point five out of ten.""It still can be improved in web-based and build reporting. ​""What could be improved is the functionality of Dynamics GP because it requires a lot of development by the programmers and the company in order to integrate into a solution.""Many of our customers are migrating to the cloud rather than staying on-premises.""There should also be extra redundancy when posting to modules. We use different sets of books such as CashBook and CheckBooks therefore if I select the wrong one the solution allows the transaction to just pass without warning.""Dynamics GP could be improved in terms of its usability and modernization.""With payroll, the payroll that they have offers US or Canadian tax. However, here, our tax payments are different from the US and Canada. It is very difficult to put in our tax tables. We need some customization. It should be readily available for any country to use according to their tax implications. The system should know different types of tax regimes around the world so that it can accommodate. It's a little bit rigid on that."

"Currently, the regional office is in Dubai, and I believe it would be beneficial to establish a regional office in Pakistan to enhance support and accessibility for users in our country.""Odoo can invest in improvements, considering areas like AI and ML, where there are shortcomings.""The range of choices and functionalities has space for enhancement.""Odoo does not provide integration with other third-party apps like Shopify.""The reporting and the interface could definitely be better.""Odoo lacks a complete dashboard, and the reports are basic. The reporting could be improved by adding some graphics.""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.""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."
