Odoo is a powerful ERP. But like any system, its success depends on how it’s implemented, customized, and used.
At Odonity, we’ve helped businesses recover from failed implementations and avoid costly mistakes before they happen. This guide highlights the top 5 mistakes we see most — and how to sidestep them.
1. Skipping the Business Analysis Phase
Jumping straight into development without a deep dive into your workflows leads to mismatched features and rework. We start every project at Odonity with clear requirements and functional mapping to avoid this trap.
2. Over-Customizing the Core
Many companies modify Odoo’s core, making future upgrades a nightmare. Our approach is modular — we extend without breaking the upgrade path using custom modules and best practices.
3. Poor Data Migration
Bad data in = bad ERP results. Many businesses migrate incomplete, inconsistent, or duplicated records. Odonity uses scripts, validations, and sandbox testing to ensure clean data migration.
4. Ignoring End-User Training
You’ve launched the system — but no one knows how to use it. This is common. Our training programs for admins, users, and departments ensure smooth adoption and better ROI.
5. No Post-Go-Live Support
Odoo evolves. Your business evolves. And without a support partner, bugs pile up and users give up. We provide SLA-backed support plans that grow with you.
