Odoo is an open-source business suite made of many apps, from CRM and projects to accounting, inventory and manufacturing, that you switch on as you need them. Wizard Application is a ready-made platform focused on running service businesses: projects, time, invoicing, sales, HR and support.
If you are choosing between them, this guide sets out how they compare, where each one is strong, and which kind of business each suits best.
At a glance
| Wizard Application | Odoo | |
|---|---|---|
| Scope | Projects, time, invoicing, sales, HR, hiring and support | A wide ERP suite, including accounting, inventory and manufacturing |
| Projects and timesheets | Included, and hours flow into invoices | Project and Timesheets apps, with invoicing of time |
| HR and hiring | HR and a recruitment ATS included | Employees, Time Off, Recruitment and Payroll apps |
| Help desk | Included | Helpdesk app |
| Setup | Ready to use, with our team handling your migration | Apps you choose and configure, often with an implementation partner |
Where Odoo is strong
Odoo goes further than most suites. Beyond sales, projects and HR it covers full accounting, inventory, manufacturing and e-commerce, and because it is open source it can be extended almost without limit. For businesses that make or stock products, or need a true ERP, that breadth is hard to match.
Where Wizard Application is different
- Ready on day one. Wizard Application works out of the box. There are no apps to choose, configure and connect before your team can start.
- Built for service work. Sales, project management, time tracking and invoices are shaped around client work and billing for time.
- Hiring with AI. The recruitment ATS includes AI CV parsing, screening and matching on the Professional and Enterprise plans.
- Help when you move. Our migration team moves your data for you, rather than leaving setup to an implementation project.
- We move you across. Our migration team maps your contacts, projects and employee records into Wizard Application, and you check everything on a staging link before you switch.
Which should you choose
Odoo may suit you better if you need ERP features such as inventory, manufacturing or full accounting, and have the resources to configure the system.
Wizard Application may suit you better if you run a service business and want projects, time, billing, sales, people and support working together from the start.
Moving from Odoo
If you decide to switch, our migration service starts with a free assessment. We map your data, give you a private staging link to check everything, and you keep working in Odoo until you are ready, so there is no downtime.
When you are ready to compare the two properly, see our plans or request a free migration assessment.
