School Management · Odoo ERP Services
Overview
Student admissions, classes, timetables, attendance and exams aren't part of standard Odoo. Open-source education modules built on Odoo, such as OpenEduCat's community edition, add them. Installing and configuring one is extra work that we quote separately, and we'll check it supports the Odoo version you're on.
Hosting isn't included. You pay your hosting provider directly.
Free Odoo setup
We install and set up Odoo Community, the free open-source edition of Odoo, at no cost. There is no licence fee for the software and no charge for the setup.
Odoo Community is licensed under LGPLv3: no licence fee, no user limit and no expiry.
We install Odoo Community on your server and set up the core apps your business needs.
Hosting is not included. You run Odoo on your own server or cloud account and pay your hosting provider directly. We can recommend options.
Data migration, customisation, integrations and training go beyond setup. We quote them up front, so nothing is billed without your agreement.
Focus areas
Fee invoices by student or parent, payment tracking and reminders for overdue fees.
Teacher and staff records, departments, time off and recruitment.
Books, uniforms and supplies bought and issued with stock tracked.
A school website with admission enquiry forms feeding a CRM pipeline.
Admissions, courses, timetables and attendance through an added education module.
Approach
We set up Invoicing, Employees, Purchase, Inventory, Website and CRM on Odoo Community for free, around how your school collects fees and runs admissions.
If you need the academic side, we'll compare education modules with you, quote installing and configuring one, and plan how student data moves in from your current system.
