The all in one idea works well for us. Support through the official line can drag though.
The price to functionality ratio is excellent.
None really.
Finance Manager, Silverline Services
LinkedIn verifiedLoads of functionality for the price. Just go in knowing it is not plug and play, you need to invest in setup.
Adding new modules as we grew was straightforward.
Official support is slow, a good partner matters a lot.
General Manager
We were juggling separate tools for sales, stock and invoicing. Odoo pulled all of it into one place and the modules actually talk to each other.
Everything is connected. A sale flows through to inventory and accounting without me re entering a thing.
Upgrading between versions can be a bit of a headache.
Managing Director, Cape Trading
We started with just CRM and inventory and kept switching on modules as we grew. That flexibility is the whole point for me.
The community and documentation are large so there is usually an answer out there when you get stuck.

The setup is a proper project. Budget the time and probably a partner to get it right.
Operations Manager
We get value from it but the setup and the support have both been frustrating.
Everything being in one database is a real plus.
Upgrades and customisations do not always play nicely together.

The value for the feature set is very good.
Support is slow unless you pay a partner.

Finance Manager, Northgate Labs
Our stock, sales and accounting finally live in one system and I can see the full picture instead of stitching reports together.
The value is hard to beat. You get a huge amount of functionality for what you pay.

You switch on only the modules you need and add more later, so it fits a small business and a bigger one.
There is a learning curve for staff, it is not something you just switch on and go.
