A user experience that gets you

First up, we’ve revamped the mobile user interface to make your experience smoother than a Sunday morning coffee. Additionally, with simplified URLs across Odoo’s interface, you’ll never feel lost again as we’ve made them more clear and easy to use.
And here’s a shoutout to multi-company managers: the new company switcher makes hopping between businesses a piece of cake. And for that app you work with every day? You can now turn it into a web app that sits right on your desktop, tablet or mobile—no more opening endless tabs! 
Ever feel like managing a project is like trying to supervise kittens? Enter Odoo 18’s Project Top Bar, your new project bestie. This feature is like having a personal assistant who keeps track of all the essential project details without making you search for them. You now get a clear overview of your project’s progress, deadlines, status, and so forth, helping you stay focused and on top of your game.

Manufacturing: keep the details close

Manufacturing is all about the details, and losing track of one little thing can mess with your whole operation. But not anymore! Odoo 18’s product catalog on BOMs and MOs brings all the product info right to your fingertips—no searching, no headaches. Plus, if you've got special instructions, you can now add notes directly to work orders, ensuring that no important detail gets lost in the shuffle, or fold and unfold instructions to keep things neat and tidy.

Barcode Scanner: speed and style

Running a warehouse or retail operation? You’ll love this. Not only does the multi-scan feature let you scan multiple items in one go, but the new interface is cleaner and more intuitive.

And drum rolls please: the barcode lookup feature lets you create product records on the spot just by scanning. You don’t have to input anything manually anymore; just point your scanner at any barcode and the product is automatically created in your database, with the right information.


Inventory: managing with precision

We all know inventory management is a fine balance between keeping stock moving and making sure nothing gets lost. Odoo 18’s push/pull rules make it easier to direct that stock flow, while valuation by lot or serial number adds a layer of detail to your inventory tracking, so nothing slips through the cracks.

And for all you dispatch wizards out there, the new dispatch management feature lets you coordinate shipments with the precision of a maestro at the symphony—now that’s control.


Website: a digital makeover

Your website is the face of your business, and Odoo 18 just gave it a full beauty treatment. You can now import your existing site with a simple click and Odoo will reproduce it as closely as possible. Pure magic! Then, you can customize it with new building blocks and previews that make editing feel like playtime. 

Need your site in multiple languages? Done. The new quick translation tool makes it lightning fast to speak to your audience—wherever they are. Plus, the new font preview makes it easy to give your site a fresh, unique vibe. Because who doesn’t love a bit of typography flair?
