So you've decided to move your business to Odoo. Great choice. But where do you start with hosting? This guide walks you through everything — from choosing the right plan to getting your first domain mapped and SSL certificate installed.
Step 1: Choose Your Plan
At ODOO4projects we offer four plans designed to grow with you. If you're just getting started, Side Hustle gives you a fully functional Odoo CE instance with 1 backup slot and domain mapping. As your needs grow, you can upgrade to On the Rise for module installation support, or jump to Powerhouse for Odoo Enterprise readiness.
Step 2: Deploy Your Instance
Once you've made your purchase, your instance is deployed automatically. You'll receive an email with your login credentials and instance URL within minutes. From there, you can access the Odoo backend and start configuring your apps.
Your instance URL: https://yourcompany.odooprojects.com
Admin credentials: sent via emailStep 3: Map Your Domain
Want to use your own domain? Point the A record at your server's IP address at your domain provider, then restart the server so it picks up the new domain. Then add the domain inside Odoo under Settings → 4 Server → Domains. Once the DNS propagates, we issue a free SSL certificate via Let's Encrypt.
Domain mapping is not available on the free trial. It is included from Side Hustle up.
Step 4: Start Building
With your instance live and your domain mapped, you're ready to install apps, configure users, and customize your workflows. Need help? Our support team is just a message away.
