Odoo Community
Open source Odoo Community is a solid foundation for a small business ERP
Odoo comes in two editions: the open source Community and the licensed Enterprise. Both are developed continuously, and new versions are released every year.
How Community is put into use
We do not install everything at once. We start with the modules that solve the current bottleneck and expand from there.
- 01Assessment
We review your processes and the number of users.
- 02Edition choice
We work out whether Community is enough or Enterprise is needed.
- 03Base modules
The first apps and data go live.
- 04Rollout
Training and everyday practices are settled.
- 05Expansion
Modules are added as the need grows.
Community or Enterprise
Two editions, the same foundation
Which Odoo edition suits you best depends on the size and needs of your company. Community contains all the base Odoo apps on which the Enterprise edition is built.
Odoo Community
The open source edition with no licence fees. It is an excellent foundation for companies with fewer than 50 users, where the base Odoo modules cover the ERP needs. Costs are low and the platform is easy to adopt.
Odoo Enterprise
The licensed edition, with broader accounting features, mobile use, updates maintained by Odoo and official support. Read more about Odoo ERP.
Which one suits you
We go through the need together and tell you plainly when Community is enough and when Enterprise pays for itself.

Base apps
The key Odoo Community modules
The apps write to the same database, so no integrations are needed between modules. You only adopt the ones you need.
CRM
Odoo CRM gathers every interaction with current and prospective customers. It helps manage leads, improve profitability and simplify customer relationship processes.
Marketing
The marketing modules cover social media, email and SMS marketing, automation and customer surveys. A campaign is planned, run and analysed on the same platform.
Sales
The sales module handles quotations and orders, and it is integrated directly with other parts of sales such as eCommerce, so all sales are managed in one place.
Manufacturing
With the Manufacturing module you define the production process, work centres, operations, machine use and the bill of materials. The module is integrated with inventory, human resources and sales.
HR
The HR modules contain the key human resources functions, such as recruitment, payroll and leave.
Website and eCommerce
With the website module you build pages that match your brand from ready templates or from scratch, and an eCommerce app for online sales is included.

Limits and growth
When Community is enough and when it is not
We spell out the limits up front, so the choice is not based on wishful thinking. The edition can also be changed later.
Community is enough
When there are fewer than 50 users and the base modules cover the ERP needs, Community is cost-effective and quick to adopt.
Enterprise is worth it
When you need broader accounting features, mobile use, updates maintained by Odoo or official support, Enterprise pays for itself.
Switching later works
Because Enterprise is built on the same base apps, you can move from Community to Enterprise without rebuilding everything.

Revise has been a Finnish software and advisory company since 2016 and an Odoo partner since 2018. Our expertise covers operations, finance, reporting and management.
Finance part of the design
We also handle bookkeeping, payments and payroll, so invoicing and reconciliation are designed at the same time rather than afterwards.
Delivered in stages
We build the whole in practical stages, so the system delivers value before every detail is finished.
All the way to management
Our own Revise EPM continues where the ERP ends: reporting, budgeting and forecasts are built on the same data.
