Integration across functionalities has streamlined business operations and improved cost efficiency
Odoo's documentation needs improvement, as there are areas that are not well-documented. Additionally, some underlying technologies need refactoring to more modern structures. Although it's not immediately necessary since the system works, changes to the architecture would be beneficial. From the transition from version 17 to 18, it appears they are aware and have begun addressing some of these concerns.

Can be deployed easily but needs to offer more out-of-the-box adaptors
The disadvantage of the tool stems from the fact that it does not allow users to make database-level modifications. In Siebel CRM, you have complete control over your database, you can do any database-level modifications, and you can create a custom data model within your database, but such functionalities are not available in Pega CRM. The UI and UI level modifications that are available in Siebel CRM with JavaScript within the jQuery framework, which is basically an open UI framework built by Siebel on top of a UI layer, are available in the tool. The level of UI modifications allowed by Siebel CRM is not available in Pega CRM. The aforementioned areas can be considered for improvement in the tool. I would like to see more out-of-the-box adaptors in Pega CRM since it is an area where the tool has certain shortcomings.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Odoo is user-friendly. It's the first solution we tried, so we find it easy to use."
"It is a comprehensive tool containing a lot of applications integrated together by nature. It is easy to use and has a nice interface that is easy to learn and teach your employees."
"I like the helpdesk module, and I like the simplicity of integration among their modules. All the modules are very well integrated, and you can move among the modules in an easy way."
"What I appreciate most about this solution is its ease of customization compared to other products. Odoo is straightforward and simpler to customize. Additionally, it offers stability by decentralizing the entire ERP with multiple products, making management and support more efficient. Moreover, the availability of talent in India is a key advantage, as the salaries for Odoo professionals are relatively lower than SAP or Oracle ERP professionals. This makes it easier for us to find suitable talent for projects seamlessly."
"Odoo is a cloud-based SaaS system, which is better than having the program on the desktop."
"We find manufacturing and stock quite useful, as well as the CRM to be the most valuable features."
"Odoo is highly scalable."
"All modules in Odoo are integrated together, providing seamless transitions across various functionalities."
"We can effortlessly manage the data within it, and it offers ease of use and high flexibility to present the data across various vendors."
"It also reduces the duration per call, and it ensures a first time resolution of the issue."
"Pega offers a clear parent-child case relationship that's easily created and maintained. Dependencies can be configured, where reaching a specific stage in a parent case automatically triggers a child task in a child case, while the parent case remains on hold until a certain condition is met before moving forward. This configuration allows multiple users to work on cases in parallel. Many of these settings are readily available within Pega case settings. Overall, Pega's case management is unparalleled compared to other options."
"The case management feature is really valuable."
"The product's deployment phase was easy."
"Great flexibility and its locking mechanism enable multiple users to work on the same case seamlessly."
"One of the most valuable features of Pega CRM for our team's productivity is its ease of setup, thanks to its configuration-driven approach."
"The solution is very easy to use."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement in Odoo's technical support."
"The reporting and the interface could definitely be better."
"Odoo can invest in improvements, considering areas like AI and ML, where there are shortcomings."
"They could add more features and details regarding the business details and some extra modules for business features."
"They could thoroughly study the market dynamics of different regions and connecting areas."
"The price of the solution could be reduced to improve the overall offering."
"There is a lack of resources for specialized Odoo professionals."
"Odoo’s asset management, supply chain, and advanced manufacturing should be improved."
"There has been a common acknowledgment among customers that this solution is an expensive tool and they often opt for cheaper tools like Comodo"
"It would be beneficial to enhance the pricing and support implementation options as they are currently quite expensive."
"For many of the clients, they have a separate system or separate layer of UI and a separate layer of the business rules engine, which Pega has taken care of in the recent releases."
"The UI is lagging and needs to be improved."
"The disadvantage of the tool stems from the fact that it does not allow users to make database-level modifications."
"The UI should be improved."
"They should enable the data-driven streaming feature inside it."
"Price is always a concern for many organizations. They often think Pega is expensive, and sometimes they don't fully understand the pricing model."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is a need to pay towards the licensing costs attached to the solution. It is not an expensive solution, especially in my country."
"I would rate the price as a one out of ten, with ten being the most expensive."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate Odoo's pricing a six out of ten."
"Odoo is an open-source tool. I don't have to pay for it."
"Odoo is cheap compared to competitors."
"Its pricing is well-received in Latin America. They sell by the user. In October 2022, they changed the way they sell Odoo. They commercialized Odoo. They now sell by the user. The cost of a user is $13.5 five per month for Latin America, which is lower than other ERPs."
"The pricing is quite affordable, especially when compared to other products, making it a cost-effective choice."
"Currently, we pay around 5000-6,000 USD per month, though I am not sure. We have to pay additionally for maintenance and support."
"We have numerous uses of the solution in our organisation. Almost 72 applications are integrated with Pega CRM, and some of them are shutting down for various reasons including the high licensing costs. There is a strong focus in the market and offices on cost reduction."
"It is expensive."
"The pricing is on the higher side."
