Key Challenges Faced

The standard Odoo eCommerce setup lacked strict approval workflows required to restrict access exclusively to verified business customers.

Default checkout processes could not support negotiable industrial hardware sales that required customized quotation-based purchasing workflows.

Managing hardware sales alongside recurring service agreements and support packages created operational inefficiencies and limited service visibility.

Existing CRM and Helpdesk workflows were not aligned with IoT-specific sales cycles, SLA management, and post-sales support requirements.

Standard Odoo themes could not support the dynamic frontend experience required for technical product catalogs, blogs, e-learning, and advanced content presentation.

The system lacked the flexibility to manage specialized hardware order tracking and custom data handling at the sales order level.

The legacy setup could not efficiently support a customer-driven inventory and eCommerce ecosystem integrated with backend business operations.
