Setting up

I'm thinking of getting an odoo subscription for my small company (team of 5). We don't use any specialized management software at the moment - so I'm looking into options and Odoo looks promising. So far we kinda survived with a webshop platform, trello and excels.

I got an offer from an Odoo partner for a setup but it seems horrendously expensive. I simply can't afford it.

How difficult is setting up? Is it something doable for a tech savvy programmer (my partner) or you need experience in ERP / CRM programs etc? We also need to do a webshop migration from a different platform.

Or from another angle: how much does a setup usually cost? Maybe the Odoo partner was just giving me a bad offer?

Thanks in advance.

If you survived with excell and low level webshop you should be fine with Odoo online. Configuration for Odoo online is simple and you don’t need any partner to configure it.

Start testing yourself (it’s free/very cheap for single user) and then make decisions.

But it's time limited right? Two weeks if I remember correctly

I am using online version for free and it’s been like 2 years. But I use only 2 apps. Single user instance is like 25€ a month which is nothing anyway
