It is not logic that keeps you
on old software. It is fear.
Every objection we hear has a direct answer. Here is what we say — and why it is true.
A test migration you approve before a single thing changes in production. You see exactly what transfers, what it looks like in Odoo, and what stays in an archive. Nothing moves until you say so.
A parallel-run migration means your team stays on the current system through testing and training. They switch on a date they are ready for. The cutover window is typically a weekend, not a shutdown.
Most businesses do not need 10 years of transaction history in their active ERP. Open balances and recent history cover nearly every day-to-day lookup. We help you decide what migrates and what is better archived.
Most ERP migration failures share the same cause: data moved without an audit, the test migration was skipped to save time, or go-live happened before the team was trained. We do not skip those steps.
The accounting software Canadian
businesses actually run on.
We migrate from the platforms Canadian SMBs are most likely to outgrow. If yours is not listed, get in touch — the methodology applies broadly.
Chart of accounts, customer and vendor master, open invoices, AR/AP balances, bank accounts. Historical transactions available where needed.
Full account structure, AR/AP aging, inventory records, customer and vendor master, historical transactions, payroll history where applicable.
Financial entities, open sales and purchase orders, customer and item master, account balances, multi-entity structures where present.
Customer lists, product catalogues, pricing matrices, inventory snapshots — structured and cleaned into Odoo master data in a format that lasts.
Six steps from your old system
to a live Odoo environment.
Every step has a visible output you approve before we move forward. Nothing proceeds on trust alone. Read our full methodology.
Honest things nobody tells you
about ERP migrations.
Things we tell every client upfront — because finding out mid-migration is worse than knowing before you start.
Duplicate customers, account codes from 2014, years of workarounds normalized into the system. Every data audit finds this. A migration is your best chance to clean it up rather than importing the mess into a new system.
Businesses delay waiting for a year-end that never feels right. Most mid-year cutovers work well with careful balance mapping and a committed cutover date. What matters is reconciled numbers — not the calendar.
Open balances and 12–24 months of transactions cover nearly every practical lookup. Historical data is better in a read-only export of the old system — accessible when needed, out of the way when not.
Running both systems during testing means double-entry for a period. We keep that window short and structure training to minimize it. The safest migration goes live at a clean moment — not dragged out because cutover feels scary.
