1. Stay with Odoo Community but define the scope
CRM standard functionnality, no custom development : use standard configurations only to reduce technical dependency
If something is really needed as customization, check the OCA repositories
OCA is Odoo Community Association
2. For office integration
Regarding emails, you can use Odoo's native mail connector, that is enough
For Docs use Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 and link in the CRM records, it's better
For Spreadsheets, you can use again OCA repo https://github.com/OCA/spreadsheet
3. For implementation with partner or consultant
Start with a fixed price package with clear deliverables and time (installation, configuration, data migration, training)
Then a fixed monthly maintenance contract
Train 2 volunteer as admin so that they can handle all admin related tasks
4. For hosting,
you can use a VPS with some docker stuff and automatic backup
That's it, no more complexity
Most of us don't want to be contacted on HN, we just want to discuss randomly in comments, that's it!
Really nice website !
Can you tell us how you got the idea, when you started, are you enterprise or solo ? How do you manage taxes ? Are you german ?
These were the questions i was asking myself when i discovered your site
After that, you can try to apply what you learned : for example, buying some lego and do some manufacturing stuff, etc...
You can just learn by doing : try also to work on a manufacturing project
