Among the world's most popular business management software, Odoo sees opportunities in Queensland, Australia's fastest-growing tech hub that receives the highest interstate migration, to empower businesses, ranging from SMEs and start-ups to MNCs, with cutting-edge solutions. Odoo also optimises its services by partnering up with 30 local IT and software development consultancies.
Queensland's innovative spirit aligns with Odoo's mission to serve, contributing to the company's record-breaking growth in Australia in 2022. Odoo experienced a remarkable 77% billing growth, serving 62% more Odoo Enterprise users in Oceania, and recorded 151% growth in leads as of August 2023.
