In ERP implementations, customization should never be the first option — it should be the last. One of the most crucial decisions during any ERP rollout is choosing between using standard modules and customizing them to meet specific business needs. While it’s tempting to tailor the system to fit every process, customization comes with long-term implications for maintenance, scalability, and upgradeability. Here’s a simple framework I follow before considering customization: 1️⃣ Start with Odoo Studio – Many business needs can be met through simple configurations or UI-level changes without touching the core code. 2️⃣ Explore the Odoo App Library – Often, the functionality you’re looking for is already available as a vetted app. 3️⃣ Evaluate the Business Impact – If neither of the above options works, assess how frequently the need arises and how much it affects productivity or efficiency. -If the impact exceeds 30%, customization may be justified. -If it’s lower, workarounds or process adjustments might be more sustainable. 4️⃣ Understand the Cost of Customization – Custom development involves time and material (T&M), requires continuous support, and can complicate future upgrades. In short, customize only when the ROI clearly outweighs the effort and risk. A well-implemented standard module often delivers better long-term stability than a heavily customized one. #Odoo #ERPImplementation #DigitalTransformation #Customization #OdooStudio #BusinessEfficiency #TechLeadership

How custom Odoo modules solve unique business challenges for SMEs Small and medium enterprises often struggle with rigid, one-size-fits-all ERP solutions that don't align with their specific workflows. This is where custom Odoo modules become game-changers. 🔧 Key advantages: • Tailored functionality that matches exact business processes • Seamless integration with existing Odoo apps • Cost-effective compared to building from scratch • Scalable as the business grows • Faster user adoption due to familiar workflows Real-world impact: A manufacturing SME reduced order processing time by 40% after implementing a custom production planning module that integrated their unique quality control checkpoints directly into the workflow. The beauty of Odoo's modular architecture is that you're not locked into predefined processes - you can mold the system around your business, not the other way around. #ERP #Odoo #BusinessAutomation #SME #DigitalTransformation #CustomSoftware

Sometimes clients ask to remove certain Odoo apps from the quotation to cut costs — and honestly, I get it. Everyone wants to optimize their budget. But what many don’t realize is that some of those apps are actually essential to keep their business flow running smoothly. Odoo modules are deeply connected — removing one can easily affect another. As someone who’s worked closely on implementations, I’ve learned that cutting the “small” things early often leads to bigger issues later. It’s not always about saving money upfront — it’s about building the right foundation. #Odoo #ERP #BusinessFlow #Implementation #DigitalTransformation

Sharing an important experience from Odoo Implementation From my experience, aligning users with the Odoo default flow at the very beginning of an ERP project is extremely important. Often, users tend to follow their old processes or manual habits, trying to replicate the same in the new system. But in reality, Odoo already follows a well-structured, best-practice-based workflow — which, if properly understood, can manage operations efficiently without heavy customization. When end users are properly trained and aligned with the Odoo default process, it also becomes clear to stakeholders which parts actually require customization and which can be handled through Odoo’s existing features. As a result: ✅ ERP implementation can be completed with minimal customization ✅ System stability and upgrade compatibility remain intact ✅ Project timeline and cost are significantly reduced In my opinion, delivering the complete Odoo default flow first, and then moving toward customization only where truly necessary, is the most effective and sustainable approach to ensure a successful ERP journey. #Odoo #ERPImplementation #ProjectManagement #BusinessAnalysis #OdooConsulting #ERPBestPractices

In ERP projects, customization should be the last resort, not the first. One of the toughest calls in any ERP rollout is deciding between standard modules and custom development. The temptation to tailor everything is strong, but every customization adds long-term cost in maintenance, scalability, and upgrades. Here’s the approach I recommend before touching code: 1️⃣ Start with Odoo Studio. Many needs can be met through simple configurations or interface changes. 2️⃣ Explore the Odoo App Library. Chances are, a tested solution already exists. 3️⃣ Measure business impact. If a gap affects less than 30% of productivity, a workaround may be wiser. 4️⃣ Calculate true cost. Custom work requires ongoing support and complicates future updates. In the long run, a well-implemented standard module delivers more stability than a heavily customized one. #Odoo #ERPImplementation #DigitalTransformation #OdooStudio #Customization #BusinessEfficiency #TechLeadership

⚠️ Why Odoo Fails When Overcustomized Odoo is powerful — but too much customization can quietly destroy your ERP scalability 🧨 Many companies fall into the “just add one more feature” trap… until the system becomes slow, unstable, and impossible to upgrade. ❗ Over-customization leads to: – 🔧 Broken upgrade paths – 🐌 Slow performance & technical debt – 💸 High maintenance costs – ⛓️ Vendor lock-in – 🤯 Confusing workflows for users 💡 The goal of ERP is efficiency — not complexity. Before customizing, always ask: Is this a real business need or just a habit from our old processes? ✅ Smart ERP strategy: ✔️ Configure first ✔️ Use standard Odoo modules where possible ✔️ Only customize what truly drives value ✔️ Keep system upgrade-ready 📚 Read the full guide here 👉 https://lnkd.in/gtwJsJWX At KoderShop, we build scalable Odoo solutions that avoid technical traps and support long-term growth 🚀 Need help fixing an overcustomized system?

If you think Odoo ERP is just “install → customize → go-live,” I promise… it’s way more than that. I’ve seen companies rush implementation because they want results yesterday. And then… chaos. Users are confused. Data is broken. Nobody trusts the system. But when you do it RIGHT — step by step — it’s a game-changer. 🪜 The staircase says it all: 1️⃣ Assess needs 2️⃣ Choose a partner 3️⃣ Select modules 4️⃣ Plan & customize 5️⃣ Migrate data 6️⃣ Integrate systems 7️⃣ Train users 8️⃣ Go-live & support The magic isn’t in the software. The magic is in how well your people, data, and processes align. Odoo is just the vehicle. Your journey depends on the driver. If you were starting today… which step would scare you the most? 🤔 #Odoo19 #ERPImplementation #BusinessSystems #OdooCommunity

The Problem With Most ERP Systems Today Most ERP systems don’t fail because of tech — they fail because they don’t understand the business. The biggest gap I see in ERP implementation is zero alignment with real workflows. Teams force employees to adjust to the ERP instead of designing ERP around how the business operates. Here’s what we changed in our approach: ✅ Start with process mapping ✅ Understand pains → then design ✅ Build modular → not heavy ✅ Keep UX first A functional ERP doesn’t just automate work — it removes friction. What’s the worst ERP experience you’ve had? #ERPDevelopment #BusinessAutomation #SaaS #DigitalTransformation #TechLeadership #AnTimTechnologiesLLP
