An introduction based on your processes, online or on site at your premises.
Schedule an introductory callThe introductory call
You talk to Vincent: online in half an hour or an hour, or on site at your premises. We go through which tools you use today, where the friction is and how a project with us works. That is all it is, and it costs you nothing.
What you do not get: a pitch. If your current setup works, you have no double entry and you can report what you need, we tell you so. Staying where you are is a legitimate choice. If you ask for weeks to think it over after the call, you get them. And if you want references, you get names to call yourself.
The tailored demo: your flow, no script
Before we show anything, we send you a short questionnaire: which processes matter for your daily operations? We build the demo on that. No slide deck with a company presentation first, but your flow from lead to invoice. If your operations run on a webshop, a warehouse or a production floor, then that is exactly what you get to see.
If something is not possible in standard Odoo, you hear it during the demo, not after the signature. "You will never be able to do that within the standard" is a full answer with us, immediately followed by what is possible.
The diagnosis: on your shop floor, not in a meeting room
If you go ahead, we start the first stage of our four-stage rocket: the diagnosis. We come and see how your team really works and give an honest verdict per process: standard, configuration or custom development. From sales and purchase to HR and service.
We only do a gap analysis if there is something to analyze. We recently did not quote a paid analysis to a prospect without existing processes: there was nothing to analyze yet. That customer got standard Odoo according to best practices, and did not pay for analysis without value.
After the diagnosis, you get one fixed price for the first phase, no open end. That is the start of the implementation: phased, with scripted migrations and a reverse workshop before go-live. You can find the full process at our approach, all the building blocks in the services overview.
A good analysis is a two-way street
One point of contact with a mandate
Someone who is allowed to make the calls. Every decision that stays open makes the project longer and therefore more expensive. We would rather keep that money in your pocket.
Time from your key users
The people who work with your processes every day know where the friction is. Without them, every analysis stays theory, however thorough it looks.
Honest answers to the questionnaire
The tailored demo stands or falls with your input. The sharper your answers on what really matters, the more the demo is about your company instead of about software.
Honest answers up front
Nothing. The introduction, the questionnaire and the tailored demo do not cost you a euro. The first paid step is the analysis phase. We do not give a figure up front: the cost of an implementation depends on the apps in scope, the data migrations, the custom development, the API integrations and any custom customer portals. You receive the fixed price for the first phase after the diagnosis.
For the first call: nothing. Knowing which tools you use today and where the friction is, is enough, and you know that story by heart. If you do want to bring something, pick the process that costs you the most time today. For the demo, we do ask for homework afterwards: the short questionnaire about your processes. Your key users only need to join from the diagnosis onwards.
Then we say so, in the introductory call and not after three demos. We have told a company before that better products than Odoo may exist for their use case, and more than one prospect that staying where they are was the best choice. We sell services, not licenses: we have no stake in license fees. So we gain nothing by talking you into something that does not fit.
