Depuis juillet 2025, Odoo a annoncé un changement majeur de sa politique de support : les versions Enterprise âgées de plus de quatre ans peuvent être conservées, mais leur licence annuelle sera majorée de 25 %.Cette évolution permet de prolonger l’utilisation des anciennes versions. Elle incite également les entreprises à anticiper leur migration afin d’éviter des surcoûts et de garantir la continuité de leurs opérations. Cette situation soulève une question stratégique pour les décideurs : comment planifier une migration efficace tout en sécurisant son système et son investissement ? Dans un précédent article, nous avions présenté les étapes clés pour préparer sa migration Odoo.
La suite logique consiste à s’intéresser au choix du partenaire qui accompagnera la migration.
I. Évaluer l’expertise et la certification du partenaire
1. Vérifier la certification et les compétences réelles
First and foremost, make sure the partner is certified by Odoo. This certification proves that they:
- has trained and recognized resources;
- has access to official Odoo Enterprise support and tools ;
- follows the good migration practices recommended by Odoo.
2. Examiner la méthodologie et la rigueur du processus
A successful migration relies on a structured method. The partner must therefore be able to explain their approach:
Functional and technical audit : to analyze the current version and anticipate compatibilities.
Migration planning : definition of a schedule, a test environment and validation milestones.
Change management support : user training and post-production support.
3. Évaluer l’accompagnement humain et la collaboration
A good partner does not just migrate your Odoo system : he works with your teamsnot just for them. Its true value is measured by its ability to:
– Understanding your business challenges:
He needs to ask questions about your financial objectives, critical processes, and performance indicators.
-To simplify technical aspects for your decision-makers
The partner must be able to translate technical choices into concrete impacts on operations, costs and productivity.
– Involve your teams in each validation step
End users must test the new features and validate that business processes are respected.
II. Considérer la relation de long terme et la proximité
1. Un bon partenaire reste après la migration
Choosing the right partner for an Odoo migration ensures that your system remains efficient, scalable, and secure in the long term. Your partner must therefore be able to:
– Offer responsive technical support:
It must be able to resolve any incident or bug, with clear tracking.
– Supporting the evolution of your system:
Your business will evolve: new functional needs, user growth, integration of additional modules. Your partner must be able to adapt and evolve Odoo without disrupting your operations.
– Be locally or regionally available
Physical or time proximity facilitates rapid interventions, validation workshops, and training. A remote partner can handle the technical aspects, but will be less effective for operational monitoring and regular communication. Therefore, ask the partner for concrete examples of post-migration support and development projects they have led in your sector.
2. La confiance et la communication comme facteurs décisifs
The success of an Odoo project depends as much on the human relationship as on technical skills. A good partner must:
– Be transparent about costs and deadlines:
He should be able to provide you with a detailed budget and realistic deadlines.
– Listening to your business challenges:
An Odoo partner needs to understand your processes, priorities, and strategic objectives. This allows them to suggest solutions that optimize your operations rather than applying a generic approach.
