Cravit at Odoo Experience 2024: Growing with Quality and International Impact
On day three of Odoo Experience 2024, we spoke with Peter Dijkstra from Cravit, a well-established Odoo Gold Partner from the Netherlands. The conversation offered an inspiring glimpse into Cravit’s growth, vision, and international ambitions — and how they help companies realize complex digital transformations.
Who is Cravit?
Cravit has been an Odoo Gold Partner for 12 years and consists of a team of 37 professionals with a strong background in ERP, including extensive SAP experience. They focus specifically on the "upper mid-market" — companies with complex processes, international structures, and high transaction volumes.
With a strong emphasis on quality and process optimization, Cravit guides organizations in automating their finance, accounting, supply chain, and production processes. Think of clients processing thousands of orders and invoices daily, sometimes with more than 1,600 users simultaneous.
A Few Impressive Examples
Cravit successfully completed a full migration from SAP to Odoo for a group of five hospitals — a project that was finalized within a year without interrupting healthcare services. Other examples include clients with 300 companies in a single Odoo environment, and e-commerce businesses where up to half of all processes are fully automated.
Collaboration with Odoo
Cravit works closely with Odoo’s Mid-Market & Corporate team. This collaboration ensures that complex projects are jointly shaped, with validation and knowledge sharing between Cravit and Odoo — offering clients an added layer of confidence.
Future Plans
Cravit continues to grow steadily, always with a focus on quality and customer satisfaction. Their strategy? Not growth for growth’s sake, but sustainable growth while retaining knowledge, engagement, and trust.
“Odoo is growing, and we’re growing with it — but always with a focus on quality."– Peter, Cravit
With a strong vision, deep expertise, and international ambition, Cravit shows how Odoo is the ideal solution for modern businesses aiming to move forward. Odoo Experience 2024 once again confirmed their role as one of the leading partners in the Benelux — and beyond.
International Expansion with a Focus on Quality
Cravit is active not only in the Netherlands but also in Spain, India, and soon Austria. Additionally, they serve clients in Germany, Ireland, France, and South Africa. They are gradually building a European network of offices with one core principle: quality first. Every new location must meet strict standards for processes, security, and support.
The Power of Odoo 18
Peter points out that every new version of Odoo brings significant improvements. Odoo 18 demonstrates the platform’s ability to handle millions of transactions effortlessly, without performance loss. Combined with advanced automation capabilities, it’s the ideal platform for companies facing staffing shortages while still aiming to grow.
Why Odoo for Dutch SMEs?
Dutch companies are often internationally active. Where local ERP solutions like Exact or AFAS fall short, Odoo offers a flexible, scalable, and affordable alternative. Cravit positions Odoo as the ideal choice for mid-sized companies seeking more than just local support.
Innovation and AI
Cravit is actively involved in innovations like AI and process automation. Thanks to Odoo’s user-friendliness and low complexity, companies can make fast progress without complex IT projects — setting them apart from large, rigid systems like SAP.
