    It stacks up well with other popular CRMs in terms of basic CRM functionality. But when you get into the nitty-gritty details and reporting, it's 5 years behind popular CRMs. Engineers are building the product without any sales or marketing input; that's the only conclusion I …

    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.

    SugarCRM
    Sugar CRM is a good tool, but it's complex to customize. It often requires expensive 3rd partners to implement more complex scenarios that SugarCRM struggles to support; coming back with explanations was usually time-consuming and unsupported. The back end is overly complex in terms of what it needs to be, with many redundant database tables and columns.

    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

    • Great way to keep myself organized. I do not miss appointments with clients since within the system I can input my appointment time and also send out a reminder to my clients.
    • It has a nice layout [that] does not seem to be cluttered. I find it to be very user friendly.
    • It has customizable dashboards which I find beneficial

    Cons

    • The back-end programming (logical hooks) for advanced customizations could benefit from a more user-friendly interface
    • General layout could be improved by the addition of modern templates to customize the standard look and feel
    • Support communities could be further improved with the addition of videos on how to do specific configuration, modules.

    Our organization will continue to use Sugar as long as it remains cost effective and it addresses the majority of our needs. I will, however, recommend looking into other options once our needs increase and there is additional budget for some bigger named and more robust platform options. I feel if the application was friendlier to end users we would get better productivity as well.

    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.

    There's a learning curve associated with Sugar. Right away, it's not as easy as an out-of-the-box CRM. Once you learn how to use Sugar, the system fits what your needs are. With any other CRM, you'd be trying to figure out how your company can best fit the CRM. You don't want to change your business cycle for your CRM, the CRM should fit your business cycle.

    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!

    The support overall at least for us has been phenomenal. Anytime that the system has any Issues at all IT gets in contact from someone from support to get the system back up and running. Have never gone more than 30 minutes with the system not working. So overall I will be definetely recommending this system in any other company that I may work for in the future.

    Study, study, and study. Be prepared to train everyday until all processes are flowing nicely. The CRM is the elephant and figuring out where to take the first bite can be a challenge. But there is only one way to eat this elephant, one bite at a time. Systematic planning is very important.

    SugarCRM is a lot better in many ways then LogicsCRM which I started using when I started as a sales rep at Community Tax. Yet there is still room for a lot of improvements to accommodate a steady workflow. They integration of old CRM files seems to have worked great from Logics to Sugar.

    • 20-30% of time can be spent on fixing or dealing with issues, partially because of Odoo.sh hosting platform limitations.
