Odoo Implementation Services
Odoo implementation is the work of planning, configuring and launching Odoo ERP so that it runs your real business processes. OzonLayer delivers the whole project: process analysis, configuration, customisation, data migration, integrations, training and go-live support.
As an official Odoo Silver Partner with certified Odoo consultants, we implement Odoo Community and Enterprise for growing companies in retail, distribution, manufacturing, services and other sectors, with offices in London, Riyadh and Pakistan.

What we do
What Are Odoo Implementation Services?
Odoo implementation services turn Odoo’s standard apps into a working system for your company. A complete project covers six areas.
Analyse
Process and fit-gap analysis
We map how your teams work today and compare it with Odoo’s standard features, so you know what fits as standard, what needs configuration and what needs development.
Configure
Configuration
Companies, users, access rights, products, workflows, taxes and reports are set up in the Odoo apps you need, using standard features wherever possible.
Extend
Customisation and development
Where standard features and Odoo Studio are not enough, our developers build custom modules. See Odoo customization services.
Migrate
Data migration
Master data, open transactions and opening balances move from your current systems, cleaned and reconciled. See Odoo migration services.
Connect
Integrations
Odoo is connected with your online store, payment providers, carriers and other applications. See Odoo integration services.
Launch
Training and go-live
Key users and end users are trained on their own tasks, and we support the launch and the weeks after it. See Odoo training.
How we work
How Does an Odoo Implementation Project Work?
Every project follows six stages, so nothing goes live until your team has tested it on real data.
Larger projects are delivered in phases, starting with the processes that matter most to the business.
Odoo consulting services →
01
Discovery and fit-gap
We review your processes, current systems and goals, and match each requirement to standard Odoo, configuration or development.
02
Solution design and plan
Scope, solution design, timeline and responsibilities are agreed and written down before configuration starts.
03
Configuration and development
We configure the Odoo apps in scope and build any custom modules, reviewing progress with your key users as we go.
04
Data migration and integrations
Data is cleaned, imported and checked, and your other applications are connected to Odoo.
05
Testing and training
Key users test every process on a copy with real data (user acceptance testing), and all users are trained on their own tasks.
06
Go-live and support
We support the cut-over and the first weeks after launch, then move to ongoing Odoo support.

Latest release
What Does Odoo 20 Change for an Implementation?
Odoo 20 was released in September 2026, and new implementations can start on it directly. Highlights from the official release notes:
- AI agents: agentic automation, voice interaction and connections to other tools through MCP; AI features use Odoo IAP credits;
- Offline mode: users can keep working when the connection drops;
- Accounting: parent accounts and AI-powered financial insights;
- Inventory and manufacturing: intercompany flows, suggested reordering levels, continuous production and split manufacturing orders;
- Planning: field service is now part of Planning, with a live map of technicians.
Some features depend on your edition and hosting; see the official Odoo 20 release notes. Already running an older version? An upgrade moves your database and your upgraded custom modules to Odoo 20.

International projects
Implementing Odoo for Companies in More Than One Country
Odoo can run several companies, currencies and languages in one database. What changes from country to country is tax, reporting and regulation.
Group
Multi-company
Separate companies in one database, with shared or separate products and contacts, and inter-company transactions between them.
Currency
Multi-currency
Invoices, payments and bank accounts in foreign currencies, with exchange rates and currency differences handled in accounting.
Language
Multi-language
Users work in their own language, and quotations and invoices can be printed in the customer’s language.
Tax
Fiscal localisation
Each country uses its own localisation for the chart of accounts, taxes and statutory reports. Local rules are covered on our pages for the UK, Saudi Arabia and the UAE.
Before you start
How Should a Company Prepare for Odoo Implementation?
Good preparation shortens the project and reduces risk.
We guide you through each step during discovery. Comparing offers from several partners? Our guide explains what to look for.
How to compare Odoo proposals →01
Map your processes
Write down how sales, purchasing, stock, finance and services work today, including the exceptions.
02
Name a project owner
Choose one decision-maker, plus a key user from each department who can test and sign off.
03
Clean your data
Remove duplicate and obsolete customers, suppliers and products before migration.
04
Agree scope and phases
Decide what must be live on day one and what can follow in a later phase.
05
Plan the go-live date
Choose a date away from month-end, year-end and your busiest trading periods.
Timeline and cost
How Long Does Odoo Implementation Take, and What Does It Cost?
Both depend on scope. A company using a few standard apps can often go live within a few weeks; multi-company projects with customisation and integrations usually take a few months.
What affects cost and timeline
- the number of users and companies;
- the Odoo apps in scope;
- the customisation needed;
- the integrations to build or connect;
- the volume and quality of data to migrate;
- the training and post-launch support you want.
Odoo Enterprise subscriptions are billed separately from implementation services. Our Odoo price guide explains what drives the budget.
Read the Odoo price guide →Typical project shapes
These examples are indicative; your proposal confirms scope and timeline after discovery:
- Standard start: a few core apps, standard features and simple data, often live within a few weeks;
- Phased roll-out: several departments going live in stages, with some customisation, usually over a few months;
- Complex programme: several companies or countries, many integrations and custom modules, delivered in phases over several months.
You receive a scoped proposal before any work starts.

Ask an implementation expert
What are Odoo implementation services?
Odoo implementation services cover everything needed to put Odoo ERP into daily use: analysing your processes, configuring the apps, adapting or extending Odoo where needed, migrating data, connecting other systems, training users and supporting go-live. OzonLayer delivers these as one project led by certified Odoo consultants.
Which Odoo version should we implement?
Odoo 20, released in September 2026, is the latest version, and new implementations can start on it directly. Some apps and features need Odoo Enterprise, so we confirm the edition and hosting during discovery. Databases on older versions can be upgraded to Odoo 20 later.
How long does an Odoo implementation take?
It depends on scope. A company using a few standard apps with little customisation can often go live within a few weeks, while multi-company projects with customisation or several integrations usually take a few months. We confirm the timeline after the discovery and fit-gap stage.
How much does Odoo implementation cost?
Cost depends on the number of users and companies, the apps in scope, customisation, integrations, data migration and training. Odoo Enterprise subscriptions are billed separately from implementation services. You receive a scoped proposal after discovery, and our Odoo price guide explains what drives the budget.
Which Odoo apps should we implement first?
Start with the apps behind your core processes, usually Accounting, Sales or CRM, Inventory and Purchase, and add others in later phases. A fit-gap analysis shows which of your requirements the standard apps already cover.
Can Odoo be customised to our business requirements?
Yes. Many requirements can be met with configuration or Odoo Studio, and the rest with custom modules. Custom code cannot be installed on Odoo Online, so projects that need custom modules run on Odoo.sh or on your own servers.
Can you migrate data from our current system?
Yes. We migrate customers, suppliers, products, open invoices and bills, stock levels and opening balances from spreadsheets, accounting packages or older ERP systems, and check the figures with your team before go-live.
Can Odoo integrate with our other applications?
Yes. Odoo connects with online stores, payment providers, shipping carriers, banks and other systems through standard connectors or its external API. Every integration is tested before go-live.
Do you implement Odoo Community and Odoo Enterprise?
Yes, both, on Odoo Online, Odoo.sh or your own servers. We explain the differences in apps, features and hosting so that you can choose the edition that fits.
Can one Odoo database serve companies in several countries?
Yes. Odoo supports multiple companies, currencies and languages in one database, with a fiscal localisation for each country covering the chart of accounts, taxes and reports. Country rules such as e-invoicing are set up for each company.
What training and support do you provide after go-live?
Key users and end users are trained on their own tasks before go-live, and we stay on hand during the first weeks after launch. Ongoing support, maintenance and version upgrades are available as a support plan.
