Where Odoo is the wrong answer for a customer service manager
Odoo Helpdesk is excellent when support is tied to orders, repairs and field service, but its omnichannel routing and voice features are lighter than Zoho Desk or Dynamics 365 Customer Service for large, phone-heavy contact centres.
How we handle it: We implement Zoho, Odoo and Dynamics 365 and build AI and custom apps, so the written recommendation after discovery can say another option fits better, or that you should not buy anything yet.
