Purchasing Odoo directly from Odoo may seem cheaper at first glance. After all, you have a low hourly rate compared to Dutch Odoo partners.
But beware: starting cheap does not automatically mean cheap implementation.
We receive weekly calls from companies that started their Odoo implementation directly through Odoo and then turn to dooIT because the setup does not align well with their organization.
And that can significantly increase costs.
A wrong setup ultimately costs you double.
Odoo is an international ERP system. A good implementation therefore requires more than just knowledge of Odoo.
Especially in accounting and financial processes, knowledge of Dutch practice is important. Think of VAT, financial setup, reports, and other Dutch administrative processes that must comply with Dutch legislation.
If this is not set up correctly from the start, you may only notice it when you actually start working with Odoo.
Consequence? The environment needs to be cleaned up, processes need to be restructured, and choices made need to be corrected.
You end up paying twice: first for the implementation and then to fix the mistakes.
Odoo Direct seems cheaper. But is that really the case?
That is exactly the question you need to ask yourself.
A lower investment at the beginning can ultimately mean a much higher investment when your implementation needs to be redone.
That is why we advise:
Don't just look at what an Odoo implementation costs. Especially consider what it will cost you if it is not set up correctly.
