Service Tracks

Two paths. Every Odoo database.

Whether your Odoo runs Community or Enterprise — and regardless of upgrade window status — LUDO has a purpose-built track for your situation.

Enterprise Track

Designed for Odoo Enterprise databases that have passed their contractual upgrade window. High-complexity instances where the standard upgrade path is no longer available or cost-effective. LUDO handles these scenarios with precision.

Community Track

Available for all Odoo Community databases, regardless of version. Whether you're on v13, v14, v15, v16, or earlier — LUDO processes your instance through the full 7-component migration workflow.

What gets migrated

7 components.
All handled.

An Odoo upgrade is never just a database copy. Every layer of your system is addressed — from raw schema to custom business logic.

Critical data transformation actions are processed through the Odoo DataLake — a central staging container that ensures auditability and integrity throughout migration.

01 — DB MIGRATION

Database Migration

Schema transformation — tables, indexes, and relations migrated to target version structure with full audit trails.

02 — TYPE CHECK

Type Checking

Field type changes detected and handled automatically. Integer-to-many2one shifts caught before they corrupt data.

03 — FIELD MAP

Field Mapping

Legacy field references mapped to current-version equivalents, preserving the data relationships your operations depend on.

04 — FILESTORE

Filestore Migration

Binary attachments, documents, and images remapped to new database record references. No broken document links.

05 — CUSTOM CODE

Custom Modules

AI-assisted code transformation updates module code to target-version compatibility. Dead code removed, quality improved.

06 — CONFIG

Configurations

System parameters, email templates, scheduled actions, and environment-specific settings preserved and remapped.

07 — VALIDATE

Post-Migration Validation

Automated validation checks referential integrity, module loading, and surfaces functional gaps as a structured gap report.

Upgrade Scan

Know exactly what your upgrade involves — before you commit.

LUDO begins with an automated scan of your database, custom code, and filestore. You receive a cost estimate before approving anything.

Initial API Scan

Connect your Odoo API key in SCOTCH. An initial scan runs automatically and generates a preliminary cost estimate with no commitment required.

Thorough Scan (optional)

For accurate telemetry on complex instances: deep analysis of custom code complexity, filestore size, and module dependency chains.

Automatic cost projection

Source and target versions are selected by you. The cost projection is generated automatically online — no sales call required.

The Process

Four steps. One week.

From API connection to production-ready package — Simplify-ERP technicians accompany every stage, collaborating with your in-house team and existing Odoo partner.

1

Connect

Connect your Odoo instance via API key at SCOTCH. Select source and target versions. Initial scan runs automatically with cost estimate generated online.

2

Approve

Review the preliminary cost projection. Approve the migration when ready. No obligation during the scan phase.

3

Migrate + test

LUDO executes. A migrated database is created. You receive the ERP link, username, and credentials by email. Test, verify, and provide feedback — with rapid-response support.

4

Deploy

Upon satisfactory upgrade, the database and upgraded module code are packaged as a download for deployment on your own infrastructure — or on Simplify-ERP's sovereign-private-cloud (SPC).

Advantages

Not just a version bump.
A better ERP.

Because migration runs through an automated pipeline, the upgraded system is measurably leaner and cleaner than the one it replaced.

Lower cost than manual migration

You pay for orchestration and expert oversight — not months of line-by-line code rewrites. Typical delivery: one week.

Dead code removed

Custom modules that accumulated over years are cleaned. Unused modules are removed from the new system entirely.

Tested before handover

Manual test phase with rapid-response gap fixing before the final package is delivered. No surprises on deployment day.

FAQ

Common questions

Everything you need to know before starting your upgrade scan.

Who performs the upgrade?

Simplify-ERP Odoo technicians accompany the upgrade process from start to finish. We collaborate with your existing in-house technicians and your existing Odoo partner — this is not a replacement for your team, it's an augmentation.

How long does an upgrade typically take?

Most LUDO upgrades complete in approximately one week from initiation. A combination of automated tooling and experienced Simplify-ERP technicians makes this timeline achievable.

What is the Upgrade Scan and how much does it cost?

The initial scan is free and runs automatically when you connect your API key at SCOTCH. It generates a cost estimate for your specific instance. No commitment required. Estimate costs upfront →

What is the Odoo DataLake?

The Odoo DataLake is the central processing container where critical data transformation actions are staged and executed during migration. It provides auditability and integrity guarantees.

What happens to our custom modules?

Custom modules are processed by LUDO's code transformation pipeline. Active modules are upgraded to target-version compatibility. Unused modules are removed. Dead code is cleaned.

Where is the migrated database deployed?

Upon satisfactory upgrade, you receive the database and upgraded module code as a download, deployable to your own infrastructure. Alternatively, Simplify-ERP can host the upgraded system on our sovereign-private-cloud (SPC).
