An integrated offer
ERP · Web · IA · BI for the retail industry
Five areas of expertise, one team that knows your business.
ERP
For retail points of sale, Captivea implements Odoo ERP as the backbone of your operations: centralized inventory across warehouses and stores, integrated POS and eCommerce, automated purchasing, tax-aware accounting and structured store procedures. We design a modular architecture so you can start with core functions and extend your Odoo environment as your retail model evolves.
Web & Marketing
On the web and marketing side, we configure Odoo Website and eCommerce to mirror your store assortments, prices and promotions, while sharing product information and stock levels with your POS. Marketing Automation and Email Marketing allow you to run loyalty campaigns, post-purchase journeys and win-back flows that leverage real-time retail data rather than static lists.
Business Consulting
Our business consulting teams work with your retail stakeholders to map processes from store opening to closing, from assortment planning to month-end closing. We translate this into practical Odoo designs, governance rules and change management plans so your ERP project strengthens your retail organisation instead of disrupting daily store operations.
Artificial Intelligence
Captivea brings AI into your Odoo retail environment with concrete, operational use cases: demand forecasting at SKU–store level, optimised assortments, dynamic pricing support and staffing recommendations based on traffic and sales patterns. We focus on explainable models and clear KPIs so your teams can trust and adopt AI outputs.
Business Intelligence
With Odoo BI and tailored dashboards, we give retail leaders instant insight into sales, margins, stock turns and cash across brands, stores and channels. From store managers to CXOs, each role gets visual, real-time indicators that replace manual spreadsheet reporting and support faster, data-based decision-making.

Frequently asked questions
Odoo is a modular ERP platform that brings together POS, inventory, purchasing, accounting, CRM, website and eCommerce in a single system. For retailers, this means stores, warehouses and finance all work on the same data instead of juggling separate tools.
Odoo offers a free Community edition and paid Enterprise editions with additional apps and support. Most retail businesses opt for Enterprise for advanced POS, accounting and multi-company features, and Captivea helps you choose the most suitable option.
You can run Odoo as SaaS with Odoo Online, on the Odoo.sh cloud platform for projects with custom code, or On-Premise on your own infrastructure. The right choice depends on your IT strategy, level of customisation and number of stores.
A Gold Partner such as Captivea brings certified experts, proven methodologies and retail-specific experience, helping you deliver your ERP and POS project on time, within budget and with strong user adoption in stores and at head office.
