Last month, how many quotes were generated by your sales team: a distributor renewing a standing order, a new lead comparing three vendors, & a customer asking for a rush turnaround? Not the deals you closed. The desired prospect who asked a simple question, waited a few days for someone to pull the numbers together. You never see recent deals, as it directly becomes someone else’s revenue.
That’s the real loss that never shows up as an error. Odoo 20 was unveiled on September 24, 2026, at Odoo Experience in Brussels, with AI-automated solutions that enable businesses to achieve consistent growth.
What’s new in Odoo 20
From AI Agents to enhanced module capabilities, Odoo 20 has built into how the system operates for better planning & execution. The features include:
- AI Agents Move From Add-On to Infrastructure
- Accounting Gets Rebuilt Around Fewer Manual Steps
- CRM and Sales Pick Up Controls Sales Teams Actually Ask For
- Field Service Disappears Into Planning, Not Away
- Everyday Usability: Mobile, Offline, and Documents
- Industry Coverage Expands, With a Few Notable Additions
Explore all the new features introduced in Odoo 20 & make the right choice to upgrade to the newer version.
What This Means If You’re Still Running an Older Version
Odoo enforces a policy where the three most recent versions, i.e., Odoo 15, Odoo 16 & Odoo 17, avoid the additional cost. We have covered this in detail in Odoo’s 25% Legacy Surcharge, where staying on an older version carries a 25% annual surcharge.
With the Odoo 20 new feature update, the criteria shifts again, and businesses that were close to the cutoff have less room to think about revenue.
