Migration Guides
Planning to switch from SAP, QuickBooks, Tally, or another platform? Our step-by-step migration guides cover data mapping, timelines, costs, and risk mitigation.
SAP to Odoo Migration Guide — Step-by-Step ERP Transition [2026]
SAP is a powerful ERP, but its licensing costs, rigid customization model, and complex upgrade paths push many mid-market companies toward more agile alternatives. Odoo offers comparable functionality across accounting, manufacturing, CRM, and supply chain at a fraction of the total cost of ownership. Organizations that switch typically reduce annual ERP spend by 60-80% while gaining a modular system they can extend without expensive consultants. The open-source foundation also eliminates vendor lock-in, giving your team full control over the codebase.
QuickBooks to Odoo Migration Guide — Outgrowing Your Accounting Software [2026]
QuickBooks is an excellent starter accounting tool, but growing businesses quickly hit its limitations — user caps, lack of inventory management, no manufacturing module, and minimal customization. Odoo provides a full ERP suite that covers accounting, inventory, CRM, e-commerce, project management, and HR in one integrated platform. Migrating eliminates the need for multiple disconnected tools and gives your team a single source of truth. Companies that switch typically save 30-50% on their total software stack cost while gaining significantly more functionality.
Spreadsheets to ERP — When and How to Make the Switch [2026]
Spreadsheets are flexible, but they become a liability as your business scales. Version control issues, formula errors, lack of access controls, and manual data entry across disconnected files lead to costly mistakes and wasted hours. An ERP system centralizes your data, automates workflows, enforces business rules, and provides real-time reporting that spreadsheets cannot match. Studies show that organizations relying on spreadsheets for critical processes experience error rates of 80-90% in complex workbooks, making the case for structured data management clear.
Tally to Odoo Migration Guide — Upgrade from Tally ERP 9 / TallyPrime [2026]
Tally is the backbone of accounting for millions of Indian businesses, but its limitations become apparent as companies expand — no native CRM, limited inventory management, single-user architecture in basic plans, and minimal e-commerce integration. Odoo provides a unified platform covering accounting, GST compliance, inventory, manufacturing, CRM, and e-commerce out of the box. Businesses migrating from Tally gain multi-user access with role-based permissions, automated inter-branch reconciliation, and a modern web interface accessible from anywhere. The migration also positions your business for international expansion with built-in multi-currency and multi-company support.
Dynamics 365 to Odoo Migration Guide — Reduce Costs Without Losing Capability [2026]
Microsoft Dynamics 365 is a capable ERP, but its per-user licensing model, mandatory Azure infrastructure, and complex customization framework drive total cost of ownership far above what most mid-market businesses need to pay. Odoo delivers comparable functionality in finance, supply chain, manufacturing, and CRM at 40-70% lower TCO. The migration also frees your team from the Microsoft ecosystem lock-in, giving you database portability with PostgreSQL and hosting flexibility across any cloud or on-premise infrastructure. Organizations also benefit from faster release cycles and a more intuitive customization model.
Sage to Odoo Migration Guide — Move Beyond Legacy Accounting [2026]
Sage products serve businesses well at specific stages, but the aging desktop architecture of Sage 50/100, fragmented product lines, and escalating annual maintenance fees push many organizations to seek a modern alternative. Odoo offers a unified, web-based platform that replaces multiple Sage products with one integrated system covering accounting, distribution, manufacturing, and CRM. Companies migrating from Sage eliminate the need for on-premise server maintenance, gain real-time multi-location visibility, and benefit from a modern API-first architecture that integrates easily with e-commerce and marketplace platforms. The transition also resolves common Sage pain points like year-end processing bottlenecks and limited concurrent user access.
WooCommerce to Shopify Migration Guide — Move Your Store Without Losing Sales [2026]
WooCommerce is powerful and flexible, but managing WordPress hosting, plugin compatibility, security patches, and performance optimization consumes time and budget that should go toward growing your business. Shopify handles all infrastructure, security, and performance as a fully managed platform, freeing your team to focus on marketing and sales. Stores migrating from WooCommerce typically see 20-40% improvement in page load speed, reduced downtime, and significantly lower maintenance overhead. Shopify also provides native multi-channel selling, built-in payment processing, and a robust app ecosystem without the plugin conflict issues that plague WooCommerce.
Magento to Shopify Migration Guide — Simplify Without Sacrificing Scale [2026]
Magento (now Adobe Commerce) is a powerful enterprise e-commerce platform, but its infrastructure demands, security patch cadence, and high development costs make it increasingly impractical for mid-market merchants. Shopify and Shopify Plus deliver comparable storefront performance and conversion optimization at a fraction of the operational overhead. Merchants migrating from Magento typically reduce their monthly hosting and maintenance costs by 60-80% while gaining a platform that is easier to manage and faster to iterate on. Shopify Plus also provides enterprise features like Shopify Functions, checkout extensibility, and B2B capabilities that close the feature gap with Magento for all but the most complex use cases.
