Switching to Odoo: from separate packages to one system
Your ERP and the packages around it, such as your CRM, webshop and accounting, come together in Odoo. Choose your current package, recognise where it pinches and see how Odoo solves it and what the switch involves.
When you switch to Odoo, customers, suppliers, products, open items, stock and opening balances always come along, plus as much history as you want. We test everything in a trial migration first, so you can check the data before you switch. A free migration scan tells you how long the switch takes and what it involves.
Migrating from your ERP package: how Odoo solves it
Whichever package you use today, the frustrations are similar: separate packages, integrations that break and licences that keep adding up. Odoo solves that with one system for your whole company. Choose your package and see how.
Coming from Exact Globe, Online or Synergy
Sound familiar?
How Odoo solves it
Next to Exact you run separate packages for CRM, reporting and invoice processing, with integrations you have to maintain.
CRM, dashboards, invoice processing and accounting sit in one platform, on the same data.
As you grow, more modules and add-ons keep coming, and licence costs go up.
One price per user, without separate modules or different user types.
Globe, Online and Synergy do not feel like one system, and every department has its own piece.
One Odoo environment for all departments, available on any device.
What the switch involves
- We know Exact inside out: Kilurion has more than 25 years of experience as an Exact dealer.
- Journals, cost centres and relations from Synergy move to Odoo.
- Separate add-ons for CRM, reporting and invoice processing are no longer needed; Odoo does that itself.
Migrating from Microsoft Dynamics to Odoo
Sound familiar?
How Odoo solves it
Next to Business Central you need separate licences or packages for CRM, webshop or service.
CRM, webshop and helpdesk are part of Odoo, in the same subscription.
You still run NAV, and moving to Business Central is a new project anyway.
Invest that project once in a platform that already includes all the apps.
For users outside finance the system feels complex.
A modern interface that sales and warehouse staff quickly work with too.
What the switch involves
- Dimensions become analytic accounts, so reports per department or project keep working.
- We do not rebuild C/AL or AL customisations one to one; we set them up with standard Odoo or custom development.
Migrating from AFAS to Odoo
Sound familiar?
How Odoo solves it
AFAS is strong in your administration, but stock, purchasing and production are handled elsewhere.
Stock, purchasing, production and webshop work in the same system as your administration.
Every webshop or marketplace needs its own integration.
Odoo eCommerce is included, and integrations with Bol.com or Amazon, for example, are available.
You adapt your way of working to the package.
Thanks to its open design, you adapt Odoo to your processes.
What the switch involves
- Payroll stays in a payroll package such as Nmbrs; the payroll journal entries land in Odoo.
- We set up AFAS workflows again in Odoo, instead of rebuilding them one to one.

Companies that trust Kilurion
