Odoo development

What is Odoo development?

Odoo development means extending Odoo with custom modules, workflows, reports and integrations, for the processes the standard apps don't cover. Good Odoo development builds on top of Odoo instead of changing its core, so your system stays easy to upgrade.

Knowlix is a certified Odoo Partner in Munich. Our developers follow one rule: use Odoo standard wherever possible, and write custom code only where it adds real value. When we do, it's clean, tested and yours.

Do you actually need custom code?

Every line of custom code has to be maintained. So we always check these three options in this order.

01

Configure

Odoo standard covers most processes. We set it up the right way, with no code at all.

Example: approval steps, pricelists, warehouse routes
02

Automate

Automation rules and AI agents handle repetitive steps, still without custom code.

Example: reminders, follow-ups, auto-assigned tasks
03

Develop

Only when standard and automation can't do it, we build a custom module.

Example: an industry-specific workflow or a new integration

How it works

How our Odoo development works

Five steps from idea to live feature. You know the price before we write a single line of code.

01

Requirements and gap analysis

We look at what you need and check what Odoo standard already covers. Often less code is needed than you think.

Don't take our word for it

Leaders love it.

As a SMBs I can't afford to lose time on admin. Before implementing Odoo, managing proposals and orders manually through emails and Excel was exhausting and time-consuming. Now I use one centralized tool where I can easily track my proposals, orders, and deliveries. It has streamlined my workflow, saved me countless hours, and allowed me to focus more on the work that actually matters.
Lisa Meier
Founder & Designer, Oneshot Design
We spent months testing tools that promised results but never delivered what we actually needed. Everything felt disconnected and overly complex, and we were drowning in administrative work. Deep down, we knew what the solution should look like. We just needed the right partner to bring it to life. Then Knowlix changed everything.
Jan Steinbach
Managing Director, ZukunftsHaus
By working with Knowlix, and their AI features, we've streamlined our operations, significantly reduced downtime, and elevated the quality of service we provide to our customers.
Markus Schetter
CEO, Wilhelm Schetter

With Knowlix, we found not only great employees but also people who fit our culture. The recruitment process was quick.
