ERP Odoo.

Odoo 19 with native AI, a catalogue of over forty standard modules and the ability to develop custom modules when the catalogue falls short. An Odoo implementation for growing SMEs, and for the sole trader who has outgrown a spreadsheet. Open-source and flexible.

Odoo is the most established open-source ERP on the market. Version 19 incorporates native AI, an automation layer with integrated n8n, and a module catalogue covering everything from accounting to ecommerce, HR, marketing, manufacturing and maintenance. Its key strength: modularity without per-user licensing — and the ease of developing custom modules when the standard catalogue falls short.

We work in two modes. Odoo Enterprise hosted on Odoo.sh or Odoo Cloud when the client values the commercial solution with direct vendor support. Odoo Community self-hosted on our infrastructure or the client's when the case justifies open-source modules and greater data control.

Our difference is threefold. First, we combine Odoo's standard modules with Summum IA's AI agents on top of the ERP. Second, when the catalogue does not fit, we develop custom modules with the same Summum Sistemas team that does pure development — an Odoo partner that is also a software studio, not just a configurator. And third, we integrate with everything you already have: your CRM, your ecommerce, your logistics platform, your field logbook.

Is your company in the Canary Islands? Implementation changes because of IGIC and the Agencia Tributaria Canaria's SII. We cover it on the ERP in the Canary Islands page, with an office in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and coverage in Tenerife.

How we implement Odoo.

The process · four stages
01

Functional analysis

Real processes, not a generic template: we sit down with the people who run each area, map the current flow — from purchase order to accounting entry — and mark which Odoo catalogue modules already cover your operations and where there is room for custom development. This produces a scope document with the chosen modules, a realistic timeline and a cost range, with no small print.

02

Configuration

Standard modules configured on your chart of accounts, dimensions, approval workflows, roles and permissions.

03

Custom modules

When the catalogue falls short, we develop custom: new data models, views, unique business rules. Without reinventing what Odoo already does well.

04

Maintenance

Monthly fee with SLA. Updates, enhancements, support. Summum IA's AI layer on top when it adds value.

The Odoo catalogue

Standard + custom modules.

The Odoo catalogue covers 70% of any SME's operations. The other 30% is built with custom modules — Odoo allows this without turning into a different ERP.

  • Standard Odoo catalogue

    Accounting, invoicing, purchasing, sales, inventory, manufacturing, HR, marketing, ecommerce, CRM, maintenance, helpdesk, projects and many more.

  • Custom modules

    When the catalogue falls short. New models, views, unique business rules. With the same team that does pure development at Summum Sistemas.

  • Integrations with your stack

    Connectors with your existing CRM, ecommerce platform, financial ERP, payment gateway, marketplace or PSD2 banking.

  • Cloud or self-hosted

    Odoo.sh / Odoo Cloud / Azure / OVH / your infrastructure. Decision based on data policy.

  • Migration from legacy systems

    From Excel, Holded, FacturaScripts, other Odoo instances. Clean and reconciled data.

  • AI agents on top

    Invoice reading, bank reconciliation, customer service with LLM. Via Summum IA.

Who is an Odoo implementation for SMEs right for, and who isn't it for?

The question we hear most is always the same: will this fit my business, or will I be underserved or over budget? Here is the honest answer, no brochure talk.

Self-hosted Odoo Community fits sole traders whose activity has outgrown a simple invoice, and small SMEs on a tight budget that need one or two very specific custom modules: no per-user licence cost, full control of your data, and our development team behind you when the standard catalogue falls short.

Odoo Enterprise cloud fits SMEs with 10 to 80 users who prioritise direct vendor support, automatic updates and proprietary modules such as Studio, and who would rather pay the licence fee than manage the infrastructure themselves.

And who isn't Odoo for? Large companies or businesses with very complex financial processes — multi-company structures, consolidation across subsidiaries, heavy analytical accounting — where an ERP like Sage X3 is built precisely for that scale. Odoo competes well in the SME space; in a large corporation, it isn't the right fit.

What about sole traders and freelancers?

For a sole trader who only invoices, tracks expenses and files taxes, Odoo is usually overkill. It starts to pay off once a sole trader or micro-business has more than just invoices: stock to control, a small team that needs access, sales across several channels, projects that need cost tracking, or a specific process no off-the-shelf software covers.

What does an implementation actually include?

An Odoo implementation is not "installing the software". It includes the standard modules configured on your chart of accounts and your real workflows — not Odoo's generic demo —, migrating your current data (customers, suppliers, catalogue, invoice history), training the team that will use it every day, and developing the custom modules your operations need and the catalogue doesn't cover. All of it backed by a closed scope document before we start.

What does it cost?

It depends on how many users, which modules and how much custom development is needed — publishing a fixed rate here would be misleading. We give you a real cost range during the functional analysis phase, before anything is signed, with no small print afterwards.

Common objections

"Isn't Odoo too generic for my sector?" The standard catalogue covers what any SME has in common; what is specific to your sector is solved with a custom module, not by forcing a feature that doesn't fit.

"What happens if I stop paying for Enterprise?" You lose direct vendor support and proprietary modules like Studio, but neither your data nor your installation disappears: migrating to Community with a planned transition project is possible.

"Can I migrate from Excel or another ERP?" Yes, it's one of our most common scenarios. Clean, reconciled data before loading it — never a direct dump without review.

Frequently asked questions about ERP Odoo.

Odoo Community or Enterprise?

Enterprise for clients who value critical modules such as Studio and direct support. Community for simpler cases or when the licence cost is not justified. We clarify this during the diagnostic.

Do you build custom modules?

Yes, and it is where we add the most value. New data models, views, unique business rules, integrations with your stack. With the same team that does pure development at Summum Sistemas.

Hosting?

Odoo.sh or Odoo Cloud for Enterprise; Azure Spain or OVH for Community or when data residency requirements apply.

Migration from Holded?

It is one of our most common cases: a client that grows and outgrows Holded. Planned migration with clean data, typically between 2 and 4 months.

What does an Odoo implementation for SMEs actually include?

It is not "installing the software": it includes the standard modules configured on your chart of accounts and real workflows — not Odoo's generic demo —, migrating your current data (customers, suppliers, catalogue, invoice history), training the team that will use it daily, and developing the custom modules your operations need. All backed by a closed scope document before we start.

What happens if I stop paying for Odoo Enterprise?

You lose direct vendor support and proprietary modules such as Studio, but neither your data nor your installation disappears: migrating to Odoo Community with a planned transition project is possible.

Can I migrate to Odoo from Excel or another ERP?

Yes, besides the Holded migration explained above, it's one of our most common scenarios. We export your current data, clean and reconcile it, and load it already validated: never a direct dump without review, because a badly migrated ERP's mistakes take months to surface.
