From Shopify to Odoo: grow your e-commerce without limits.
Shopify is a fantastic tool for launching a store quickly. But as your business grows, you soon hit the glass ceiling: hidden transaction fees, dependence on third-party apps, and a store completely disconnected from your purchasing and your B2B. Discover our strategies for unifying your flows.
The Shopify glass ceiling.
We are not saying the tool is bad, quite the opposite. But its "fast B2C" logic often ends up holding back fast-growing SMEs.
Costs skyrocket
The real cost goes beyond the base subscription. Shopify takes variable fees on your card payments and adds penalties if you use an external payment provider. And that is before the subscription for every app you add.
B2B is limited
Since April 2026, Shopify has offered basic B2B features on all its plans, with up to three catalogs. For customer-specific pricing, you have to move to "Shopify Plus", whose entry price is high for many SMEs.
App overload
As soon as you want to manage supplier purchasing, accounting or warehouse processes, you have to stack up tools. The store remains hopelessly cut off from the rest of your business management.
Two strategies, depending on your digital maturity.
Every business is different. At Hors du Commun, we offer two ways to connect your eCommerce to your day-to-day management.
Full migration to Odoo
The goal: all-in-one B2B / B2C. We replace Shopify with Odoo's built-in eCommerce engine to unify your inventory, pricing and logistics.
- No more transaction fees on your sales.
- Advanced B2B pricing, out of the box.
- An online order triggers the supplier purchase need.
🔗 The real B2B lever: By moving to Odoo, you get a true private portal for your business customers. Discover the benefits of B2B eCommerce with Odoo.
API synchronization
The goal: the best of both worlds. You keep your Shopify B2C storefront, and we connect it to the Odoo ERP for operations.
- Shopify remains your storefront and handles the UX.
- Odoo takes over purchasing, inventory and accounting.
- Orders and inventory levels are synchronized.
The tactical choice to strengthen your back office.
A fundamentally different approach.
Odoo is not the "best" for launching a brand in 48 hours. But it is far superior as soon as the store needs to be a seamless extension of your business.
| Topic | Shopify | Odoo eCommerce |
|---|---|---|
| Core logic | Strong for launching a store quickly. | Store built into the overall ERP. |
| Real costs | Subscription + transaction fees + apps. | Transparent pricing for all your management. |
| B2B sales | Basic features on all plans, customer-specific pricing reserved for the "Plus" plan. | Connected to customer pricing out of the box. |
| Back office | Often needs API integrations to connect. | Accounting, purchasing and inventory unified. |
We do not copy and paste a SaaS architecture.
Leaving Shopify takes method. We do not just migrate your products, we rebuild your logistics and financial value chain.
