The platform behind SynByteIT ERP
What is Odoo?
Odoo is an open-source suite of integrated business applications, CRM, Sales, Accounting, Inventory, HR, Manufacturing and more, that run as one connected system on a single database. Founded in Belgium in 2005, it has grown into one of the world's most widely used and fastest-growing ERP platforms. SynByteIT ERP is built on Odoo Community and localised for the GCC.

All in one
One platform instead of a dozen disconnected tools
Odoo replaces separate apps for accounting, sales, stock and HR with one system on a single database, so data flows automatically and you stop re-keying between tools. There are 50+ official apps plus thousands of community-built apps, all designed to work together.
- Sales & CRM
- Accounting & Invoicing
- Inventory & Purchase
- HR & Payroll
- Manufacturing (MRP)
- Project & Timesheets
