Hi! I'm Gabriel, and today I'm going to talk to you about my favorite Odoo app: Odoo website. Why? Because too many SMEs spend thousands of dollars to have a website made, only to find themselves stuck as soon as they want to change a comma.
With the Odoo Website app, you can create a professional website yourself, without coding, and especially without breaking the bank.
Creating a professional website, without code or headaches
What makes me addicted to the Odoo Website is the simplicity of drag and drop. You take content blocks from the builder, drag them where you want on your page, adjust a couple of visual things, and boom: your page is ready. No need to touch a single line of code.
Odoo's AI even suggests the layout and content based on your industry. You say "I'm in distribution" or "I sell furniture" and the tool offers you a suitable site skeleton, a theme choice that works! It speeds everything up!
Key features accessible without coding from the builder:
- Visual editor via drag-and-drop
- AI to suggest content and structure
- Ready-to-use blocks (text, images, forms)
- Unsplash images integrated for free
- Built-in SEO to optimize your ranking
Connected apps to go beyond just a simple website
What excites me about Odoo's is that it doesn't work alone in isolation. Unlike traditional builders that just give you a static site, here, everything is connected: your site communicates directly with the CRM, sales, inventory, and even your e-commerce.
Imagine a distributor receiving an online order. As soon as the customer clicks "Buy", the order automatically appears in their Odoo inventory, without them having to re-enter anything. The stock updates in real-time, the sales team sees the order in their pipeline, and the customer receives their confirmation via email. Zero double entry, zero friction.
That's the game with Odoo: you're not just buying a website, you're entering a complete ecosystem. Want to track your leads? Your CRM is there. Want to manage your inventory? The inventory updates live. Want to automate your customer follow-ups? Marketing is connected with the email marketing module.
My honest opinion: a module at an unbeatable price
Okay, let's talk dollars. What makes me a fan of Odoo is the "one app free forever" plan. Yes, really free — you pay nothing as long as you stay on a single app. Plus, the domain is included for a year, which solves the initial budget question.
When you want to add other modules — let's say CRM or e-commerce — that's when you start paying. But the prices remain accessible for a small business. No surprises on costs, everything is transparent from the start. That's rare in the ERP market.
Now, let's be honest: if you have very advanced needs or want to customize every pixel of your site, support can become useful. For 90% of small businesses, the module does the job well, but for complex projects, the e3k team is there to support you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Here are some common questions about creating professional websites with Odoo.
Absolutely! Odoo can create complete websites, not just basic pages. We're talking about showcase sites, online stores, blogs, lead capture pages — everything a small business needs to shine on the web.
The best part? Thecalls to actionon your site can trigger automations in your other modules. A click on "Request a quote" can create a sales opportunity, schedule a reminder, and even send a personalized follow-up email.
The Customized plan costs about $36 CAD per user per month and includes advanced features like multi-company support. For most Quebec SMEs, the Standard plan works just fine.
What makes these sites "excellent" is not their crazy design — it's their complete business integration. Every click on the site triggers something in their operation.
Well, it happens to everyone: you create a test site or change your strategy, and now you want to clean up your Odoo.
To delete a website, you first need toenable developer mode. Go to Settings → General Settings, and click on "Enable Developer Mode" at the bottom of the page. Once enabled, you will have access to Website → Configuration → Websites.
Attention: if your site is set as the default site, Odoo will not allow you to delete it. You must first designate another site as the default, then come back to delete the one you want to eliminate.
My advice? Before permanently deleting, make sure to back up your important content. And if you're hesitant, you can simplytemporarily disable itinstead of deleting it — that avoids regrets!
Certainly. Odoo is today one of the most robust tools for enabling SMEs to design a professional website without having to manage the usual technical complexity. What we mean by "professional" is primarily a site that projects a credible and polished image, but it is also a platform optimized for conversion and performance.
