Luminous
vs Odoo

Sure Odoo is ‘affordable’ and ‘open source’, but you won’t find many established e-commerce brands using it. Why? Because it lacks three key features that Luminous provides: support, connectivity, and scalability. Instead of a ‘cloud-based ERP’ with an ‘inventory module’, Luminous is a true and complete e-commerce solution.

Where’d the implementation and support team go?

Sometimes, “open source” really means you just have to do everything on your own. However, implementing a successful e-commerce solution is a complex process that requires help. With Odoo, you’re not going to get that. With Luminous, you’ll get a free on-site implementation from a team that ensures your setup works how you need it.

Connectivity with the wrong ecosystem

Odoo is an ERP with different modules that you choose from “buffet style”. One of those is “inventory”. But if you use Odoo for inventory you can only integrate with other Odoo modules. You’re stuck with Odoo for everything, even if you don’t like it. Luminous is the opposite. It has pre-built integrations with all the modern e-commerce tools you rely on like Shopify, Klaviyo, Ship Station, Quickbooks, and more.

Open source 
for who?

How many Odoo developers do you have on your team? To customize Odoo’s “open source” modules, you’ll need them. This becomes a problem when you need to add features to scale your operations. With Luminous, you can start small and add features as you grow. This makes it truly customizable and scalable, regardless of where you are in your e-commerce journey.

Note: While Odoo technically has many of the same features, you’ll only be able to use Odoo modules and not integrate with outside tools. Luminous allows you to use the features you need and integrate everything else.
