ODOO CRM • PROJECTS • TIME TRACKING • INVOICING

Odoo integrator for service companies.
Without the tool sprawl.

Finally bring your entire services business into a single ERP.

The point is not to run yet another Odoo demo. The point is to connect your CRM, quotes, engagements, timesheets, subscriptions, support and invoicing, so you can run your business without re-keying data or keeping parallel Excel files.

If your salespeople work in one tool, your project managers in another and your invoicing lives somewhere else, you lose time and margin. We configure Odoo for service companies to give you a clear flow from sale to payment.

THE PITFALLS

Why a poor Odoo configuration costs a service company dearly

A poorly scoped Odoo doesn’t just waste time: it distorts your margins, wears out the team and pushes everyone to build their own workarounds outside the ERP.

A CRM the teams don’t use

A pipeline that is too theoretical, forgotten follow-ups, poorly designed stages: after a few weeks, salespeople go back to their emails, their notes or their personal habits.

Back to Excel files

When projects, timesheets and invoicing are not properly connected, teams rebuild spreadsheets on the side. You then lose the continuous flow Odoo promises.

Profitability you can’t read

You sell, you deliver, you invoice… but without a sound analytic configuration, the margin per engagement, project or client stays unclear.

Unnecessary custom development

When standard Odoo is poorly understood, people compensate too early with custom development. It inflates the budget, complicates maintenance and holds back future upgrades.

Which Odoo apps should a service company deploy?

We structure your services business in Odoo to connect business development, project delivery, support, subscriptions and invoicing.

Sales cycle

Odoo CRM to manage leads, follow-ups and quotes

We bring clarity back to your sales pipeline: qualification, follow-ups, quotes, signature and conversion into a sales order. The goal is not a pretty CRM, but sales tracking the team actually uses.

Engagements

Project management and operational control

A signed deal should naturally turn into an engagement, tasks, milestones, delivery tracking and profitability in Odoo Project.

Time value

Time tracking and timesheets

Logged time feeds operational control, pre-invoicing and profitability. We configure Odoo Timesheets so this data finally becomes useful.

Invoicing

Fixed-price, time-based or milestone invoicing

We adapt the invoicing logic to your business to avoid the back-and-forth between delivered work, accepted quote and final invoice.

Support

Helpdesk and billable tickets

If you provide support or after-sales service, Odoo Helpdesk lets you track tickets, time spent and invoicing through its built-in integration with Sales, Timesheets and Accounting.

On-site work

Field Service to schedule on-site jobs at your clients

For field teams, Odoo Field Service lets you schedule tasks, show jobs on a map, generate a route and link each job to the client, the project and invoicing.

Recurring revenue

Subscriptions and recurring invoicing with Odoo Subscriptions

If your business includes recurring contracts, maintenance or subscriptions, we configure Odoo Subscriptions to handle renewals, due dates and recurring revenue tracking.

METHODOLOGY

How we implement Odoo in a service company

Between an Odoo that is installed and an Odoo that is truly useful lies all the work of business scoping, functional structuring and team adoption. That is what separates an ERP people use from an ERP people work around.

01

Map the flows

We start from your real flows: acquisition, sales, engagements, time, support, subscriptions and invoicing, to understand where information gets lost.

02

Structure the database

Cleanup of the customer database, pipeline, quotes, projects, timesheets, invoicing rules, subscriptions, teams, access rights and KPIs.

03

Test on your real cases

We validate with your real use cases, not with an idealized demo. This is essential to avoid workarounds after go-live.

04

Drive adoption

The end goal is simple: the team actually uses Odoo every day, without rebuilding Excel files or stepping outside the flow.

CASE STUDIES

Service businesses already cleaned up in Odoo

MLMD Events

Operations scattered across Excel and Drive, quotes poorly centralized, history hard to read, little visibility into how revenue breaks down.

Work done:

Overhaul of the CRM, structured quotes and invoicing, a cleaner customer database and groundwork for clearer business reporting.

Coworking and events

Coworking spaces with subscriptions, add-on services, simultaneous events and a design office, all requiring more consistent sales, project and invoicing tracking.

Typical scope:

Bookings, services, subscriptions, CRM, invoicing, service delivery tracking and day-to-day automations, centralized in a single Odoo environment.
