Migrate Odoo.sh to self-hosted: Stop paying for workers
Exiting Odoo.sh is the fastest way to slash your ERP costs. Eliminate the 60 euro per worker surcharge and gain full root access while keeping your Enterprise features.
Why companies are leaving the Odoo.sh ecosystem
Odoo.sh is a great starting point, but it becomes a financial burden as your team grows. The primary driver for migration is the worker tax: Odoo.sh charges approximately 60 euro per month for every additional worker thread. On a self-hosted VPS, you are only limited by your hardware. A standard server can often handle 10x the concurrency of Odoo.sh at 20% of the cost.
Beyond cost, technical freedom is the second biggest motivator. Odoo.sh restricts your shell access and limits your ability to install specific Python dependencies or system libraries. When you migrate Odoo.sh to self-hosted with Opsily, those walls disappear. You get full control over your environment, enabling complex integrations and custom OCA modules that are simply impossible on the PaaS version.

Odoo Migration FAQ
Migration is performed by downloading a full backup ZIP from your Odoo.sh project dashboard. This file contains your PostgreSQL database and your filestore (attachments and images). As long as you are moving to the same major version of Odoo, the restore process is a 1:1 match. We recommend performing a test restore on a staging environment before switching your live DNS.
