Hoi zäme! I am planning to start a small engineering company and I’m currently torn between Odoo and Bexio for my administration. I want a lean, automated workflow, but I am worried about the “Swiss-specific” requirements. For those of you running a business here: Odoo & Compliance: If you use Odoo, how do you handle the MWST (VAT) declaration and Lohnbuchhaltung (Payroll) ? Did you find native modules that work with Swiss law, or did you have to hire a developer to build interfaces for things like AHV/UVG/PK? Banking: How reliable is the bank synchronization for Swiss banks? Does it work out of the box or is it a constant headache? Or do you rather check everything manually? If I’m not mistaken, I heard Odoo encourages us to not connect the bank for security reasons. The Bexio Question: I’ve heard Bexio is the “easy” alternative, but I’ve also read many negative reviews regarding their support quality and the costs that pile up as soon as you need an extra feature. For those who switched from Bexio to Odoo (or vice versa), was it worth it? Or more in general, what were your experiences with Bexio/Odoo? Hybrid Setup: Do any of you use Odoo for CRM/Projects but keep a separate software (like Banana or Abacus) for the “hard” accounting/taxes? I’m aiming for “administrative excellence” but I want to avoid a software nightmare in my first year. Thanks for your help! submitted by /u/0bjective-Guest
