Can Odoo Website replace WordPress?

For most mid-market sites, yes. Odoo Website covers CMS + blog + forms + multi-language + SEO without the WordPress plugin sprawl. WordPress still wins for sites with very specific plugin requirements (custom membership flows, complex marketplace plugins). Odoo wins when you also want CRM, eCommerce, and helpdesk integrated.

How does Odoo Website handle SEO?

Per-page meta + OG configurable inline. Sitemap auto-generated. Schema.org JSON-LD for Organization, Article, Product, BreadcrumbList. Lighthouse SEO scores typically 95+ out of the box. Performance budgets enforced in the build pipeline.

Can we run Odoo Website on a custom theme?

Yes. Custom themes are Vue + SCSS-based, similar to a standard CMS theme. We build custom themes for brands wanting full design control while keeping the Odoo CMS workflow.

What the builder gives you out of the box

Website configurator. Answer a short set of questions and the builder generates a starting site, structure and theme included, instead of beginning from an empty page.
Drag-and-drop building blocks. Professionally designed blocks you place and reorder directly on the page. Each one is editable rather than fixed.
Smart colour presets. Button, text and background colours derive from the palette you choose, so combinations stay legible without anyone hand-picking hex values.
Gradients. Define and reuse colour gradients on text, backgrounds and buttons.
Shape dividers. Apply shapes to the edges of a block to break up the stacked-rectangle look in a couple of clicks.
Scroll animations. Animate content as it enters the viewport, applied per block rather than as a site-wide effect.
Dynamic blocks. Blocks that pull live content: recommended articles, upcoming events, latest products. The page stays current without anyone editing it.
Layout variants per block. Every block ships several layouts, so two sections built from the same block do not have to look identical.
Google Fonts. Load any face from the Google Fonts library so the site matches the brand rather than the theme's default.
Your own block library. Save a block you have customized and reuse it across pages, which is how a site stays consistent once several people edit it.
Mobile handled automatically. Layouts adapt to small screens by default, and you can choose to hide specific content on mobile rather than shipping a cramped copy of the desktop page.

Feature list as published by Odoo on its Website product page. Octura is an Official Odoo Ready Partner; these are the platform's capabilities, not custom development.

Built with Odoo Website

Six live sites running on the same Odoo Website builder this page describes.

Aerospacelab

A satellite manufacturer's corporate site: dense technical content, careers, and press, with no storefront attached.

Cytosurge

Scientific instruments, where the site's job is to explain a complex product to specialists and route qualified enquiries.

Fondation Saint-Luc

A hospital foundation running donations, grant calls, and events from the same system, in a regulated setting.

House of Training

A training institute with a large course catalogue, sessions, and registrations, which is closer to an application than a brochure.

Materrup

Low-carbon cement: an industrial company using the site to carry a technical argument to specifiers and investors.

Alliance Francaise

A cultural network operating in many countries and languages from one platform, which is the multi-site and multi-language case.

These sites are drawn from Odoo's own website showcase and are the work of their respective owners and their build partners, not Octura projects. They are here to show what the platform reaches in production.
