Find out in this report how the two ERP solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The product is customizable so we can tune it according to our requirements."
"All of the features are valuable, depending on where you implement them. I've done implementations in 60 countries, across 86 different companies and groups, and each company has a different reason for why they want to use it. Every single feature that I've implemented has been successful, and for some companies, where they didn't use the functionality, they have moved to external products or they've integrated into other applications."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"It is a stable solution."
"One developer is enough to maintain the solution. Microsoft 365 is changing technology. The product is a user-friendly ERP solution."

"It's quite reliable, and there's a good local provider who can adapt the solution for tax issues."

"Odoo is widespread in a lot of different industries, and the most powerful feature of Odoo in the manufacturing industry is the forecast."
"The most valuable feature of Odoo is the integration it provides and the many modules available."
"Odoo is a cost-effective tool for performing core ERP functions, such as inventory management. It's also good for manufacturing use cases."
"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."
"The most valuable features of Odoo are its customization and the fact that I can add modules whenever I want to the solution and the customization."

"There are some aspects of the solution that is complex."
"I would like a more modular and user-friendly interface."
"The product should improve work optimization."
"If Microsoft made some of the security setups a little easier to work with, that would be a significant improvement. The warehouse management features could also use some work. We had to buy third-party software to make NAV's warehouse management and security more usable and functional."
"Odoo provides their apps on mobile, but it is not good enough, especially for my clients."
"I'm uncertain because each year they release a new version with improvements. However, one area that needs significant enhancement is the website, particularly the modern core website. While there's an approach similar to WordPress, it is quite basic at the moment. Besides that, particularly with the POS solutions, we identified potential security issues. This is due to the storage of information on cookies or similar sessions. In cases of Internet-related issues, there's a vulnerability where data might be compromised. The system uses temporary storage until the internet connection is restored, and then it pushes the data to the server or database. This poses a risk, especially in point-of-sale systems, where there could be vulnerabilities for data modification or alteration by unauthorized individuals."
"The reporting and the interface could definitely be better."
"Odoo has room for improvement in industry-specific features."
"The solution should improve its performance."
"The most valuable feature of Odoo is the fingerprint feature."
"The price of the solution could be reduced to improve the overall offering."
"They could add more features and details regarding the business details and some extra modules for business features."
