Featured Reviews

ThomasPetrou - PeerSpot reviewer
Consultant at Mazi4u
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 19, it appears they are aware and have begun addressing some of these concerns.
Willem Lambrechts - PeerSpot reviewer
Managing Director at Drebbel
Offers the ability to create multiple pipelines and the flexibility in filtering and reporting
We do a lot of analytics and reporting ourselves. We don't necessarily use all the features that Pipedrive provides, but it's very helpful at least. It has streamlined our deal-closing process. We use it for everything. When we create a lead, we put it into Pipedrive. That lead can be converted into an opportunity, which we manage through our whole pipeline. This includes having all data related to the opportunity in one place. Once the deal is closed, we use Pipedrive to follow up on the invoices until they are paid. We also manage sales commissions and payments to our salespeople through Pipedrive.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"With Odoo, being open source is advantageous because we have access to the source code for whatever we develop. This gives us the flexibility to make additions, deletions, or modifications according to our needs without any restrictions. There are no predefined formats that limit our customization options."
"I find the financial module, along with the integrations of projects and the HR human resource module, to be the most valuable aspects of Odoo."
"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."
"It is scalable, and because it is on cloud, we can have as many users as we want."
"It is a scalable solution...The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"It's convenient that we have an all-in-one holistic solution."
"Odoo is a cost-effective tool for performing core ERP functions, such as inventory management. It's also good for manufacturing use cases."
"All modules in Odoo are integrated together, providing seamless transitions across various functionalities."
"Pipedrive offers a lot of value for the money because it includes e-signature, document generation, CRM, and workflow automation in one not-expensive solution."
"Our primary use case for this solution ranges from using it for daily activities in sales to forecasting and KPIs and following up on every deal we are working on and every lease we are opening."
"The most useful thing is the ability to create multiple pipelines and the flexibility in filtering and reporting."
"The biggest and the best feature is the view that you get when you log in. You have a board like Kanban when you log in, and you've got a column on the left and several other columns that move to the right, depending on where you are in a particular deal. If it's a prospect or someone who is just looking, you move it along the process, and it really helps you keep track of where you are."
"The solution is very stable."
"Pipedrive's most valuable features are that you can keep the whole information that's related to managing your sales process and you can customize it easily. The person that we have who is customizing Pipedrive is very junior in means of software development or process development. He can easily use it, anyone can use the solution. It has a very easy user interface to customize your processes and apply them to the Pipedrive process."
"It is a stable platform."
"The usability of the solution is its valuable feature."
 

Cons

"The authorization management needs to be improved."
"The sales model is not the best, and it lacks certain features."
"The solution lacks local API support. Also, it lacks some database integration platforms. In short, it lacks an API integration platform."
"The customization and technical support are not great and could be improved."
"There is room for improvement in Odoo's technical support."
"They could thoroughly study the market dynamics of different regions and connecting areas."
"The human resources portion could be improved."
"It has been difficult to adapt to continuous changes, you have to understand what is new and what is changing in less than twelve months. You can take advantage of the new features, but you have to research them to be able to implement them."
"The tool's APIs are challenging. It should also be compliant with HIPAA, FINRA and GLBA. The data centers should be within US so that they are compliant with regulations."
"Pipedrive has some weaknesses against Salesforce. The documentation of Pipedrive could improve. They need more qualified documentation because I had to fix my colleague's work to correct the reports because they did not find how they can do it, or develop reports. There are some misunderstandings about how to do reporting."
"Pipedrive is relatively stable, but the performance is lackluster compared to other solutions in this space."
"The form builder works even though it has some shortcomings...Also, the forms don't have the ability to avoid or stop people from signing up if they don't have a corporate email."
"New features sometimes seem bolted on rather than being smooth."
"Pipedrive could be more efficient. I want the management to be more transparent so it's easier to monitor the sales team's activities and results and do business forecasting. It would help them to improve the quality of the sales cycle."
"The platform could be even more robust."
"The integration possibilities with other systems could be better as well. We use it in connection with Octopus CRM, and there's room for improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is quite affordable, especially when compared to other products, making it a cost-effective choice."
"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."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one means high price, and ten means low price, I rate Odoo's pricing a five or six out of ten."
"There is a need to pay towards the licensing costs attached to the solution. It is not an expensive solution, especially in my country."
"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."
"The solution's licensing costs are low compared to its competitors."
"Currently, we pay around 5000-6,000 USD per month, though I am not sure. We have to pay additionally for maintenance and support."
"The price of the solution depends on the use case. However, it can be expensive and we are paying annually."
"The product is expensive but provides valuable services."
"Pipedrive keeps increasing the prices, which is becoming a bit annoying. It was reasonable when we started, but now they're increasing all the time."
"The price of Pipedrive has been reasonable."
"Pipedrive is relatively more affordable than other solutions."
"The solution is affordable."
"We pay $1000 a month for the tool."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price, and ten is a high price, two or three. For us, everything is expensive because this is a startup, but for a normal company, it should be peanuts."
"The solution's pricing is excellant. It costs 65 dollars a month for top tier plan."
