    Odoo
    For small businesses and small teams, Odoo CRM is fine. It has the basics, and it is functional. But as the teams grow, processes become more complex, and reporting needs to be accurate, you will have to either allocate a budget to an Odoo partner or hire a Python developer internally. Sales-led organizations with larger teams will find poor reporting a deal-breaker. You can't do standard reporting that you find in HubSpot or Salesforce. So you end up doing a lot of customization or manual work to get the reports you need.

    Slack is ideal for Scrum and agile teams that need continuous communication during sprint planning, daily stand-ups, backlog refinement, testing, and retrospectives. Slack is well-suited for maintaining team knowledge through searchable conversations and dedicated channels, where experienced team members help onboard new QA analysts.

    Pros
    Odoo
    • Generating quotations partiuclarly for the ease of data amendment so that products can be added on the fly and names can be amended per quote to suit
    • The contact tagging feature is a fantastic way of grouping customers/leads into industry specific groups for targetting specific areas seperately
    • Very versatile customer pricelist function for ensuring discount structures are accurately calculated

    • Customer issues: Threads feature allows us to group a particular issue in a single thread and discuss within that thread. I can use the thread link to embed in JIRA ticket for tracking progress in JIRA (which is our details engineering tracking system).
    • Ability to add folder to Slack channel helps keep important information, documents easily accessible. e.g., we use this to keep a "ramp up" folder that can be used by any new joiner.
    • Global search is effective when I forget which group a particular message was in.

    Cons
    Odoo
    • UI can be improved
    • The lead view can be better since we have to scroll a lot.
    • The server is down or technical glitches are happening . We have seen distance in lead count

    • Would love a better integration with GitHub. For example, notifications when your PR is updated, when review is requested, @-mention in comments, etc.
    • Improved "Later" tab, for example the ability to create to-do lists or making the "Later" tab into a more powerful to-do list (annotate items with notes)
    • More powerful integrations, e.g. Google Calendar could render a calendar view within Slack, rather than sending the daily schedule

    To be more transparent, I give 10 because Slack serves our collaboration needs. It provide us a good platform for team communication relaying important update within the company, it has even mobile app where you can install in your phone to monitor any updates within that team that needs your immediate attention and intervention.

    Usability
    Odoo
    Odoo CRM is usable and has a lot of features, so it gives us the basics we need to run a successful business. The problem is, it requires a lot of time and money to customize it and run it smoothly. Plus, Odoo support can be pretty bad. For every 1 good support agent, there are 9 that don't pay attention. We have an internal running joke that ChatGPT is more helpful than Odoo support when they first reply. Once we get to product experts, they usually know what they are talking about. But the first-level support agents, you have to push them and re-explain things to get them to understand and hopefully escalate. Plus, they always miss SLA response times, blaming it on a busy period. Usually takes a week for the first reply. You can get live chat sometimes, but 9 out of 10 times, they will ask you to create a support ticket. Then you wait.

    Slack has good usability. Devs that are not familiar with the platform are able to jump into conversations and start sharing code and links within just minutes. Non developers are also able to understand the layout such as the Project Managers that are keeping the projects on track. We have not seen any tickets where employees are having trouble understanding Slack.

    Yes, the app works 24/7. I don't even recall having any period that we could not use since the implementation. Even the maintenance periods are barely noticeable and our work is not impacted by it when it happens.

    Slack is a soft app, we don't have many issues with it. I recall one or two people complaining about something during our usage period, but I didn't have a bad experience. When the app is slow, usually the problem is with my computer or my internet. The app works just fine.

    Odoo
    This was a bit of a sticking point, we find the support can be lacking and generally its recommended to spurchase a support pack of hours in order to benefit from full support. We have subsequently gone on to do a lot of the implementation and training by ourselves following lots of trial and error so although things are working now, it was initialy a bumpy road implementing!

    Whenever I've had to troubleshoot an issue with Slack (which, to be honest, has not happened very often), their online documentation has been easy to locate, easy to understand, and effective in resolving my issue. Slack's ever-growing popularity also means that there's a large community of practice out there that can be depended upon.

    We were able to filter leads super precisely and project as per our vision. The notes and reminders are useful. Odoo Congress with inbuilt calender option from where you can create events and share with the team or the respective prospects

    I like Slack better than ClickUp, because I would spend 30-60 minutes a day updating my ClickUp tasks. The way ClickUp was used was very micromanaging. I billed by the hour, so I was willing to put in the time to alert the boss what tasks I was working on.
    One of my jobs used Hive - I mostly just ran it in the background in case anyone messaged me. I did not use it often.

    Odoo
    • We're managing millions of dollars in sales orders.
    • 20-30% of time can be spent on fixing or dealing with issues, partially because of Odoo.sh hosting platform limitations.
    • Odoo CRM does allow us to do what we need to run a successful business; it's just 5 years behind HubSpot and Salesforce.
