Odoo ERP is highly scalable, which is one of its strong points. It can be easily adapted to the size and needs of your business. Whether you are a small startup with a handful of employees or a large enterprise with hundreds of employees, Odoo offers the flexibility to grow. You can start with just a few Odoo Apps and add more as your business expands. The open architecture and modularity make it easy to add new features and integrations.

To implement Odoo in your organization, you have several options. You can opt for an in-house implementation, where your own IT team installs and configures the software (although this is not our recommendation). 😉). The best option is to outsource this to a certified Odoo partner (and that's what we are 😉) who has experience with setting up and customizing the system. 

The basic steps are usually::

1. Analysis: Identify which Odoo Apps you need and what your specific business requirements are.
2. Installation: Install the core software and the Odoo Apps you have chosen.
3. Configuration: Set up the software to meet your needs.
4. Data migration: Move existing company data to Odoo.
5. Testing: Run tests to make sure everything is working correctly.
6. Training: Train your employees to use the new system.
7. Deployment: Launch the system and make it accessible to all users.

By following these steps and applying customization as needed, you can effectively implement Odoo in your organization.

Odoo takes security seriously and has several measures in place to protect users' data. They use up-to-date encryption and other security protocols. Access to data can be restricted and regulated at various levels within the organization. In addition, they also offer options for backups and data recovery. However, as with any software, it is important to practice good security practices yourself, such as using strong passwords and updating the software regularly.

Yes, Odoo offers mobile accessibility. You can easily access the web version of Odoo via the browser on your mobile device, and there are also dedicated mobile apps available. These apps are optimized for mobile use and provide many of the core features you would find in the desktop version. This allows you to efficiently manage your business processes on the go.

To use Odoo Enterprise you only pay an amount per user. It is nice to know what is meant by 'user'. A user in Odoo is a person who has access to Odoo. Can anyone log in to Odoo? Then that is a user.

The only exception to this are so-called portal users. A portal user is (often) a customer who accesses the Odoo portal to e.g. orders and invoices. They are therefore not counted as users.
