Odoo 16–19 → 20now covering upgrades to Odoo 20

See every breaking change at once — fix what's safe, prove it loads

Manual Odoo upgrades mean the crash loop: start the server, hit an error, fix it, restart, repeat. We scan your whole codebase against every known change for your path — including upgrades to the new Odoo 20 — auto-fix the safe Python/XML issues, and verify the result on a real Odoo server, plus a calibrated effort estimate and a client-ready PDF for your quote.

Scoping an upgrade by hand takes days — and one missed change eats your margin.

Slow to scope
Days of reading changelogs and grepping core to estimate one module.
Easy to under-quote
One missed breaking change turns a fixed-price migration into a loss.
Hard to defend
A number with no evidence behind it is hard to justify to a client.

From module to defensible quote in three steps

No setup. Upload, scan, and export — usually in under two minutes.

01

Upload your module

Drop a ZIP of your custom Odoo module and choose the source and target versions.

02

Scan & verify

Your code is checked against everything that changed in your target version — then each finding is confirmed against real Odoo before it counts.

03

Estimate & report

Get effort, cost and a ranked findings list — export a branded PDF to quote your client.

Now with Odoo 20

Upgrade straight to Odoo 20

Four versions behind? You don't have to scope 16 → 17, then 17 → 18, 18 → 19, then 19 → 20. VersionBridge scopes the jump you're actually making — 16 → 20 is a single piece of work.

  • One scan, one estimate, one report — for the jump you actually plan to make
  • You see the net effect of the jump, not a pile of intermediate noise
  • No quoting for work you’d never actually write code for

The difference

Not a guess — verified against real Odoo

Analysis alone can only tell you what might break. Before any finding reaches your report, we put it to the test against real Odoo running your target version. What you get is what we observed actually break — not a list of possibilities — and each finding carries a confidence level from that same check.

  • Every breaking change confirmed against your target version before we report it
  • False positives ruled out, so you don’t quote for work that isn’t there
  • Confidence + verification status on every finding, so you know what to trust

AI-powered fixes

Most of it fixes itself

The report doesn't just find the breaking changes — VersionBridge's AI writes the fix. It generates the code change for each safe Python & XML break, applies it, and re-validates it on a real Odoo server — so the bulk of the migration is already done. You review and ship the rest.

A week of a developer's time becomes a few clicks — on a subscription that costs less than an hour of it.

How we know what breaks

A precise upgrade estimate normally takes days of digging through changelogs and core — and whoever gets the number wrong pays for it. Quote too high and the client overpays or walks; quote too low and the fixed price eats the partner's margin. Both sides carry that risk on every deal.

VersionBridge takes it off the table. We maintain a deep, continuously-updated map of what actually changes between Odoo versions and check your module against it, so every number traces to a specific, verified change — an estimate you can defend in minutes, not days. Never a guess, never a black box.

What we don't claim: the effort and cost figures are indicative — per-change-type hours with economy-of-scale batching, meant to be calibrated to your team's velocity and rate. A defensible baseline, delivered fast — not a black-box fixed price.

Straight answers

I’m uploading a client’s proprietary module — is my code safe?

Your module is analyzed in an isolated, sandboxed Odoo environment that is wiped after each validation run. We never train on or share your code, and you can delete a project and its files at any time.

You’re pre-launch with no customers — why should I trust it for a real quote?

We’re honest about being early: no inflated numbers, no fake logos. Instead, judge it on the work — download the sample report and see the real output for yourself. Every finding is verified against real Odoo running your target version, so you can sanity-check it against your own experience. Scanning is always free — you only pay to apply fixes.

Detection tools miss things or cry wolf — can I trust the findings?

That’s exactly why we verify. Analysis surfaces candidates, but nothing reaches your report until it’s been confirmed against real Odoo running your target version — and candidates that turn out not to break are ruled out. Each finding shows its confidence and verification status: we’d rather show you uncertainty than fake certainty.

Is the effort/cost estimate realistic, or a random multiplier?

It’s per-change-type hours with economy-of-scale batching for repeated changes, and you apply your own hourly rate. It’s an indicative baseline to calibrate to your team’s velocity — designed to be defensible and fast, not a black-box number.

Can I scope a jump across several Odoo versions at once?

Yes — that’s the point. We scope the jump you’re actually making as a single piece of work, so you get the net effect rather than three hypothetical migrations stitched together. Available paths today are 15 → 18, 17 → 18, 16 → 19, 17 → 19 and 18 → 19, plus 16/17/18/19 → 20 in preview (built from Odoo’s pre-release branch, refreshed at the official 20 release) — covering Python, XML, JavaScript and manifests. If a pair isn’t supported yet, the upload form tells you up front rather than guessing.
