How to Choose the Right Odoo Modules

Odoo ERP has more than 5 million active users at present, proudly being the number one most installed business software. But to say all of these business owners are at prime success would be misleading. But do these modules not guarantee you success? Well, yes and no. These modules centralize and smoothen up different business processes. But the role of modules ends there because it is you who picks the right modules based on your needs and resources. Where to get started, you may ask? Fret not because we have compiled a list of factors that can influence your choice of Odoo ERP modules. Business Requirements: There is a big gap between actual and actualized when it comes to module integration. While you might think that your ERP system needs modules for all your departments, don’t forget that this ERP system itself will need resources and a team to manage. Future Growth: Whether it is planned expansion or unplanned boom, you got to futureproof your ERP system. One way of doing that is to pick the right set of modules. Do your analysis and make realistic estimates to pick modules that allow you to scale up or down as needed. Integration Compatibility: All on-going businesses have a running combination of tools before they plan the big shift to ERP. Integrating modules and later facing compatibility issues can be catastrophic. Check carefully if the tool you are using is compatible with the ERP module.
