Odoo software Enterprise Resource Planning DISRUPTION

 Affordable Enterprise Resource Planning system

The players in this market space are SAP, Oracle, PeopleSoft, Workday, Odoo, Microsoft, Sage, Infor & Netsuite.

Some of the established players have grown by acquisition to preserve market dominance. Others have evolved from accounting packages to stake a claim in the Enterprise Resource Planning space.

The one constant is they all have to evolve.

The 2 most recent players are workday and Odoo software

Workday was founded in 2005 with the visionaries who founded PeopleSoft (acquired by Oracle), Oracle recently acquired Netsuite as well.

Odoo was founded in 2005 with the vision to disrupt the main players.

The advantage Workday and Odoo have is they embraced cloud technology very quickly and that was a core of their design without having to consider legacy Enterprise Resource Planning systems and redundant overblown code that has existed for years in some cases decades.

For the technology giants every new product release can take at least 3-6 years conservatively, to acquire, improve, test, release..that is a long gestation period in the fast moving technology world of today especially in the ERP cloud Saas marketplace.

Odoo releases a new version every 12-18 months with each release improving the functionality of a core business area which moves that business functionality up in leaps and bounds.

9 Enterprise delivered Major Accounting Improvements 2015, Version 10 Enterprise delivered MRP, Version 11 moves the game further.

Think about that release cycle the behemoths are still another minimum of 2 years from a release its a high stake game as it costs hundreds of millions of dollars in R&D to delivery..they have to get it right..hence the cost.

Why can Odoo software do this..the clue is in the origins..a worldwide network of developers and opensource origins means the constant evolution and update of the software feeds into the product with Odoo protecting the core product.

No other ERP company today can evolve this quickly and have a cloud based functionally rich system delivered to the market at this price point.

Yes of course they have to fight the opposition on price..but this is just one of the reasons why Odoo software is one of the fastest growing business software houses in the world.

Quite simply you get the functionality, modern, efficient, no expensive licensing costs, automatic upgrades included in the $96 user a year fee...go compare with the others!

For the major players willing to discount..why do you think that is! Corporates are taking notice.

As Enterprise Resource Planning experts we only install Odoo software for clients that buy into the disruptive philosophy and believe that an ERP deployment can be done with an Agile methodology at the core without costing the earth. Why take longer to evaluate and modify when you can test quickly within the program deployment in rapid time with no expensive SDK's or outdated overblown code to contend with.

Our clients love Odoo and because we key into the rapid deployment aspects of the solution we can always find a best fit.
