Flowtly vs Odoo

The short answer

Pick Odoo if you sell goods as well as services and want stock, manufacturing or a web shop in the same system as your books. Pick Flowtly if you sell your team’s time and want projects, time, invoices and project margin working without an implementation project.

When Odoo is the better choice

• You hold stock, manufacture, or run an online shop next to your services.
• You want your general ledger and your operations in one database.
• You have an Odoo partner or in-house staff to configure and maintain it.
