Excellent ERP to manage your business operations

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: 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.

Pros:

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.

Cons:

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.

Alternatives Considered: SugarCRM

Reasons for Choosing Odoo: Because managing business operations in spreadsheets it is extremely time-consuming. It requires a lot of coordination and is prone to errors.

Reasons for Switching to Odoo: Because provides more modules. The availability in our market of Python developers to extend and customize the platform was another reason.

Odoo is the greatest free/open-source ERP

4.0 3 months ago

Comments: 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.

Pros:

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.

Cons:

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

5.0 2 months ago New

Comments: 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.

Pros:

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.

Cons:

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