• The launch of an ESG app
• Features from the new AI app 
• A new Odoo Partner page, including new metrics like customer retention and certified experts.

Let’s see what new surprises Odoo has in store for us in 2026!

Odoo Experience 2026 dates have been published

Odoo Experience 2026 has been announced (quite early, we might add) for September 24-26.

Odooers will be wrapping up on a Saturday again. 

Odoo tested this more family-friendly date this year for the very first time, and by the looks of it, it helped to attract a larger audience.

You can already register, so go ahead and grab that early-bird ticket deal now!

Odoo hits 40M€ MRR 

Odoo founder & CEO Fabien Pinckaers just shared that Odoo crossed 40 million euros in monthly recurring revenue.

This great milestone is a strong sign that Odoo’s combination of open-core strategy and integrated business apps has scaled into true enterprise territory.

This kind of growth curve is rare in the ERP space. It signals a bigger market trend:

• Companies are actively moving away from heavy, traditional ERP setups
• There’s growing demand for platforms that are modular, affordable, and scalable without complexity.

Odoo beats record of 13K clients per month

 This month truly is full of milestones for Odoo: Fabien also announced that Odoo reached a new record of staggering 13,000+ new clients per month!

Community talk

All the hot topics and discussions Odoo users are buzzing about this month. 

Odoo 19 upgrades are now rolling out! 

Users have started upgrading to the newest version across Odoo online, Odoo.sh & on-premise. 

Upgrades are now available across all platforms for custom systems. 

Odoo doubles down on accounting training in Benelux

Odoo is intensifying its e-invoicing and Peppol training.

They’ve been hosting over 4 in-person training sessions for 500+ entrepreneurs every week in parallel across Belgium & Luxembourg. 

We wonder if this will expand across even more markets.

New Inventory valuation cheat sheet for Odoo 19

Odoo 19 now has a new cheat sheet for inventory valuation.

It explains the different costing methods and the changes in how inventory affects accounting.

The update helps users understand the new Perpetual method, which now posts at the invoice level instead of every stock move.

Odoo 19 introduced a new invoice review workflow

Odoo 19 introduces a multi-level invoice approval process with colour-coded statuses (To Review → Reviewed → etc.). This means that:

• Large companies finally get an audit-friendly approval flow
• Reduces financial risk + prevents unauthorised payments
• Helps enterprises satisfy compliance requirements (SOX, internal audits, etc.).

This is one of the most enterprise-ready accounting features Odoo has shipped so far.

News from the ERP world 

Headlines from the ERP world you shouldn’t miss.

SAP proposes settlement to EU antitrust investigation

SAP was put under investigation for making it too hard or too costly for customers to switch providers. 

In a market that pushes for cloud fairness, locking customers and preventing them from understanding what they’re paying for is a red flag.

The settlement includes offering concessions like easier customer switching and greater fee transparency, including eliminating the reinstatement fee. 

The EU is now gathering public feedback from customers and rivals before making a final decision.

Oracle's hacked data used for extortion

Oracle's E-Business Suite was hacked, and the stolen data is now being used for extortion campaigns.

Oracle EBS was compromised by the Clop ransomware group, which exploited two critical zero-day vulnerabilities in the software. 

This security failure allowed hackers to steal sensitive personal and financial data from EBS users, including high-profile customers like The Washington Post and Harvard University.
