Odoo Fleet review

Odoo Fleet is the free pick for a company that cares more about vehicle costs and paperwork than about live tracking. Odoo's pricing page says the One App Free plan gives you one app with unlimited users, and the Fleet app page repeats that it is free, forever, with unlimited users. Inside the app you keep a record for each vehicle with its driver, model and tax details, track leasing and service contracts with an email warning before they expire, log services, repairs and accidents with the vendor attached, and record fuel entries and other costs. Odoo's documentation lists a cost analysis report by vehicle and by driver and an odometer analysis report, which helps decide when to replace a vehicle. What it lacks is a GPS view and driver inspection checklists, so pair it with Traccar if you need tracking. The catch is the one app rule: add Accounting or Expenses and you move to a paid Odoo plan, priced per user.
