Challenges To Conquer
1. The software was not as dynamic as the brand was, which meant that Jasani LLC faced difficulties when they needed to make rapid business model changes. 2. The old software lacked established and documented API’s, requiring a lot of manual work from the team to maintain their Web Portal up and running – a key interaction point with customers. 3. Implementing the smallest of changes in the software was proving very costly, time-consuming, and lengthy in terms of implementation. 4. Lack of good documentation meant the team was never fully conversant and in sync with their ERP.
Migrating to Odoo In search of a flexible and complete ERP system, Shrey J., the Product Manager at Jasani LLC, looked into his network to find the best solution. As an avid coder and IT specialist, he knew many different options that were available on the market and chose Odoo after extensive research and comparison. Odoo was implemented across the entire business operations with one main goal in mind - to have one platform for everything. The very first noticeable benefit came from the integrated data together with the emerged 360 view on the business operations and on their customers. The other major benefit was how easily it was to adapt processes to Jasani’s unique industry-specific requirements. Odoo did not require any API integration in order to build a beautiful and functional website and an e-commerce system, and it provided great documentation for the teams to train themselves and get well conversant with the ERP and take advantage of its power and efficiency. The key Odoo apps that Jasani heavily relied on included the CRM, Sales, Website, and eCommerce applications.
