The introductory call

During a free one-hour introductory meeting with Vincent, online or at your premises, we discuss your current processes, challenges and plans. We use that information to prepare a free demo tailored to your business.

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

We prepare the free demo using what we learned about your business during the introductory meeting. We ask follow-up questions where helpful. You see a familiar process from start to finish: for example, from lead and quotation to delivery, invoice and payment, with the relevant Odoo apps working together. For a webshop, warehouse or production floor, we select the situations that matter to your operations.

We show what standard Odoo can do for your processes and which questions need further work. This helps you assess the possibilities. Any further discovery, configuration, integrations and testing are agreed separately.

The diagnosis: on your shop floor, not in a meeting room

If you go ahead, we start the first panel of our quadriptych: 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.

Insight into your daily operations

What you tell us during the introductory meeting helps us tailor the demo to your business. We ask targeted follow-up questions if we still need information.

Honest answers up front

Nothing. The introduction, any follow-up questions 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.

You do not need to prepare anything for the first meeting. Tell us which tools you use and where things get difficult. We use that introductory information to prepare the demo and ask targeted follow-up questions if needed. Your key users only need to join from the discovery phase 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.

Would you rather have that first call right away?
