How we quote Odoo · Quickstart + Success Pack methodology
At Nextdoo we apply the official Odoo methodology: Quickstart with a phasing plan and fixed-hours Success Packs. We always begin with a short Discovery that defines scope, gaps and risks · then we implement in phases with quick wins in each one. No static rates because every business has different cost drivers · always with a fixed budget per phase after the Discovery.
How we quote · 3 simple steps
1. Fixed upfront Discovery (1-2 weeks)
Before committing to a full budget, we run a short fixed Discovery: process mapping, integration inventory, risk register, scope document. Output: scope signed off by all parties and a realistic estimate of the Success Pack your case needs. It is the only honest way to quote Odoo.
2. Hours-based Success Pack (Quickstart)
With the scope clear, we build a fixed hours-based Success Pack: tier by scope (SMB standard, consolidated standard, mid-market, enterprise). The hours cover configuration, custom dev, migration, testing, training and go-live. If we go over the hours, you see it before it is incurred.
3. Phasing plan with quick wins
We implement in progressive phases (official Odoo philosophy): app group 1 → validated quick win → app group 2 → validated quick win → custom and automations. You reach production in 8 weeks with standard Quickstart and validate value before investing in deep custom work.
Success Pack types
After the Discovery we recommend the pack your case needs. Each pack is a fixed hours-based Success Pack · no surprises · with quick wins defined per phase.
Quickstart SMB Pack
Standard 1: sales, purchase, inventory, basic accounting. Spanish localization. Basic data migration. Quick win in 4 weeks.
Quickstart Plus Pack
Standard 1 + 2: adds CRM, ecommerce or retail POS depending on the sector. Moderate custom · occasional automations. Iterative quick wins.
Mid-market Pack
Multiple modules (manufacturing, multi-company, advanced integrations). Custom modules with AI. Greater configuration depth. Phasing by quarters.
Enterprise + AI Pack
Quickstart + AI-powered custom: invoice OCR, content generation, Helpdesk assistants. 90-day hypercare. Premium SLA.
The 6 official phases · Odoo framework
Why phasing > turnkey
The big-bang "everything fixed in 6 months" sounds good but is risky: you discover problems late, the team gets overwhelmed, and any scope change is a hard negotiation. Odoo recommends phasing for a reason.
- Early project validation · first quick win in week 4-6
- Predictable budget per phase · no surprises mid-implementation
- Measurable ROI in every quick win · informed decision before investing more
- Risk reduction · if phase 1 works, you have Odoo in production even if you don't contract phase 2
- Custom only when it's proven to add value · you avoid paying for modifications you later don't use
- The team learns progressively · higher real adoption than a big-bang go-live
- Scaling-friendly · you can move from Quickstart to Mid-market without throwing away prior work
What's included in each Success Pack phase
Start with the Discovery
The Discovery is a fixed 1-2 week package. It delivers an executive document with signed scope and a recommended Success Pack. No obligation to continue if it doesn't fit.
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to implement Odoo?
It depends on the modules, the number of users and the complexity. That's why we work with packs and a calculator that gives an indicative estimate.
Does the price include licenses?
The investment covers licenses, implementation and training. The exact license amount depends on the modules and final users.
Are there hidden costs?
No. We define the scope and the budget before starting, in clear language.
Can we start step by step?
Yes. We recommend implementing first the modules that save you the most time and expanding later.
Are the prices fixed?
We work with reference packs and adjust to your case. The figures are indicative until the scope is finalized.
