For business owners and operations heads in India, the challenge today isn’t growth, but managing growth effectively. Teams are scattered across spreadsheets, disconnected tools, and outdated processes—profits leak. Decisions stall.
Odoo Community Days India 2025, happening 13–14 August at Mahatma Mandir Convention Centre, Gandhinagar, is built to solve exactly that.
Now a mojor ERP and business software event in the country, it brings together 20,000 attendees, 200 product exhibitors, 150 real-world sessions, and 7 masterclasses all centered on the theme of how Indian companies are scaling using integrated tools.
What’s On the Agenda?
Unlike most tech conferences, this one is focuses on business performance, rather than jargon. Over two days, you’ll:
See working ERP solutions for manufacturing, logistics, retail, healthcare, and education
Attend live case studies and product sessions by certified Indian Odoo partners

Retailers fixing billing bottlenecks
Manufacturers syncing stock, production, and dispatch in real time

About Odoo: https://www.odoo.com/r/shya1
Odoo is a comprehensive open‑source ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning), CRM, CMS and e‑commerce platform developed by Odoo S.A., headquartered in Belgium. Founded in 2005 by Fabien Pinckaers (initially as TinyERP, later renamed OpenERP in 2008, and finally Odoo in 2014), the software has developed into a full‑featured suite with dozens of modules and supporting end‑to‑end business operations.
Odoo is released under an open‑core model:
The Community Edition is entirely open‑source under LGPLv3.
The Enterprise Edition adds proprietary features, automated upgrades, hosting, support services, and is available via subscription.
Since version 9.0, the company has provided dual editions. In October 2022, the enterprise licensing switched from per‑application/user pricing to a simplified single user‑based license model covering all applications.
Odoo provides a modular ecosystem of over 80 official core applications (e.g. CRM, accounting, inventory, manufacturing, HR, e‑commerce, POS), plus thousands of community‑contributed apps (estimated 50,000 on the online app store and ~6,000 via the Odoo Community Association). Odoo supports both on‑premises deployment, cloud SaaS (Odoo Online), and a PaaS offering (Odoo.sh) that combines hosting flexibility with GitHub‑based development workflows → providing a choice between full control and managed service depending on customer needs.
Global capabilities include multi‑currency, multi‑language support, tax localization, customizable workflows, and integration via API (XML‑RPC / JSON‑RPC).
As of mid‑2025, Odoo has over 16,000 official partners, employs more than 5,500 staff, and serves over 15 million users worldwide across businesses of all scales—from single‑user startups to enterprises with 300,000+ users.
The Odoo Community Association (OCA), founded in 2013, supports collaboration and development of community extensions, ensuring open‑source continuity and governance.
