How Odoo is Helping Businesses in the UAE?

Why Odoo is Perfect for UAE Businesses?

The UAE is emerging as a global hub for growing businesses and start-ups. With its dynamic market, the business requires a robust tool to stay in the competition. Odoo has emerged as a leading business management software, providing accounting, CRM, project management, etc., under a single roof.

In our blog today, we are exploring the features that have captivated the market of the UAE and helped the business achieve their goals.

While Odoo offers a comprehensive suite of business management tools, it’s important to understand how it compares to other leading solutions like QuickBooks vs. Zoho Books for accounting in the UAE.

Top Benefits of Choosing Odoo UAE for Your ERP Needs

Odoo integrates various functions into an all-in-one business management solution. Let us see how it stands out for UAE businesses:

  1. Cost Effectiveness:

While many competitors charge the subscription based on the number of users and the function they wish to opt for, Odoo breaks this trend by offering the comprehensive subscription based on the number of users while providing access to all of its software.

Odoo users can easily access accounting, CRM, inventory, manufacturing, HR, e-commerce, and many more modules.

  1. Tax reports:

Odoo’s accounting module supports VAT-compliant reports effectively, automated tax calculations, and export data that are compatible with the FTA portal.

  1. Access to all its software:

Odoo offers a comprehensive solution for charges that are based on the number of users. Such users have access to most of their solutions. On the contrary, its competitors charge on a per-user, per-software basis. Thus, businesses having a smaller number of users, especially in small- and medium-scale enterprises, can opt for Odoo software.

  1. E-commerce integration:

Odoo offers businesses the ability to open and manage an online store integrated with several payment gateways. This allows the start-ups and medium businesses to make the best use of the Odoo software.

  1. Open-source framework:

Odoo offers highly customizable and open-source solutions, enabling the business to customize the app as per their requirements and needs. This helps businesses with unique requirements.

  1. User interface:

Odoo’s seamless interface and sophisticated design equip the user with a better user experience for different functions. Their mobile-friendly interface can be accessed from smartphones or tablets.

  1. Localization:

Odoo supports country-specific tax reports, multi-currency, and multi-language, thus making it more suitable for complex compliance requirements in the UAE.

  1. Robust features:

Odoo provides deep capabilities in inventory, manufacturing, CRM, project management, and more. They provide corporate-level ERP solutions. Odoo’s cloud-based approach aligns with solutions like Naqood’s Cloud Accounting Software, which is gaining popularity among UAE startups and SMEs. Also, in case you’re moving toward modular accounting platforms, do not forget to explore Zoho Accounting Software Features to see how it stacks up against Odoo. 

What is the pricing of Odoo?

As of December 2024, Odoo offers two plans as below:

  1. Standard plan: At $13.5 per user per month.
  2. Custom plan: At $20.4 per user per month

Both plans include access to all Odoo applications. The key differences lie in customization and multi-company support.
