Customization in Odoo? Odoo Experts advises as standard as possible. It is not for nothing that Odoo is the ERP package for SMEs. Over-automation is unnecessary.
Odoo has the largest business App Store in the world with over 25,000 apps. Customization is in Odoo's DNA. Why does Odoo Experts advise as standard as possible, while we can build anything?
We immediately get straight to the point. Customization is too often used for a temporary problem on a micro level. If you're just getting started with Odoo, the new ERP-system is not yet well known in your organization. Employees compare the new Odoo software with the functionalities of the previous software package. That is comparing apples with oranges.
Searching for the 'golden buzzer'...which isn't there
Employees look for the button that does everything. The 'golden buzzer' with which you increase efficiency to the smallest level at the touch of a button. Customization is rarely a good solution for this. Hasty customization even entails risks. It costs money, it is difficult for another software partner to take over changes, and custom solutions make updates complicated because you also have to migrate these to the latest version.
What is our advice?
"Over-automating" is not necessary. As a Gold partner of Odoo, we are moderate with customization, but with this professional economy, we deliver excellent quality.
