Online offers a cloud-based system as a software service that utilizes the
enterprise edition. The simplicity of Odoo Online is one of its main advantages.
There aren't any technological issues, and Odoo is in charge of everything. It
is rather comfortable thanks to the security mechanisms, limitless and prompt
bug fixes, and 24/7 monitoring service. Additionally, your databases are
completely backed up by Odoo Online and replicated across several computers
located across multiple countries. The database control center allows you to
download any backups made during the last three months. Due to the platform's
limitations on customization, it is appropriate for small-scale businesses.
Odoo’s default functionalities are only available in Odoo Online. The primary
benefit of cloud-based (Odoo online) hosting is that users don't have to worry
about the cost and features of the server or the migration process, which are

it may be used either with a dedicated server or a shared one. The former is
appropriate for smaller businesses with fewer than 50 users, and the cost can be
estimated from the Odoo sh website based on the number of employees, storage
capacity, type of hosting, and number of staging. Furthermore, the service
offers many more advanced features including backup, continuous integration,
interacting with Odoo apps, and much more.
However, in the event of dedicated server operations, Odoo must be informed of
the company's requirements. Based on these requirements, recommendations will be
given, and the cost will be established. The end user will have all the tools
necessary to run their business effectively using Odoo Sh. In addition to
providing extensive customization choices, the platform facilitates easy testing
of their projects.
Furthermore, feature branching and beta testing of features on duplicates of the
user's client's production instances are permitted by the system.Moreover,
Odoo.sh makes use of a GitHub account that contains unique SSH keys and secrets,
enabling it to merge, clone, and fork projects. In a similar vein, the Odoo.sh
platform makes it incredibly easy to join up two servers with a few clicks and
register SSH public keys rapidly.

complete control over customisation and add-ons for the platform from Odoo. When
setting up your whole hosting infrastructure, the Odoo enterprise may be easily
deployed on your server by yourself. You must manage the technical details if
you are hosting Odoo on-premises, which is crucial for sustainability and for
paying for the installation of your software.
