When does a custom system pay off?

When the core of the business is a process no standard app models well, or when Odoo would need so many modules that every upgrade turns into a project.

Yes, and it is often the best answer. Odoo keeps the stock and the invoices, while your own portal or app reads and writes the same data through the Odoo API.

Is a custom system more expensive?

At the start, usually yes, because nothing exists yet. Over several years it can come out lower when Odoo would need heavy modules ported every version plus Enterprise licences per user. We price both routes for your scope.

What if the books are in 1C?

Then they often stay there: 1C for Kazakhstan keeps the books and reporting, while Odoo or your own system handles sales, stock and customers. We set up the exchange either way.

A custom system we build is yours, code and data. On Odoo, your own modules are yours too; the core stays under its open-source licence and Enterprise under Odoo’s.

The first stage of your own system starts from 2 650 000 ₸. An Odoo implementation is quoted after a process review. Either way, the price is fixed in the contract.

Odoo vs custom ERP: when each one pays off

Odoo covers sales, stock and accounting out of the box. A custom system fits a process nobody else has. We build both, so our advice does not depend on your pick. The first stage of your own system starts from 2 650 000 ₸.

Sounds familiar?

The choice is rarely all or nothing.

Where the doubts begin.

01The Odoo standard fits, but not everywhere.

02So many modules that every upgrade became a project.

03The core process of the company fits no system.

04Per-user licences grow along with the team.

A third option: 1C alongside.

Many companies already keep their books and reporting in 1C. Then the question is not Odoo or a custom ERP, but what to run next to 1C.
