Odoo is similar to many open-source projects where customized programming, support, and other services are provided by an active global community and partner network. The community is comprised of more than 1,500 active members and has contributed more than 4,500 modules to the ongoing enrichment of Odoo. The network of certified partners, established in more than 120 countries, deploys the solution locally.
