In this episode, Sam and Chris, both Solution Architects at Dear Digital, tackle a question many growing businesses face: 'Should I choose Shopify, Odoo, or maybe both?' 

They compare the two platforms’ core philosophies. Shopify as a best-of-breed selling engine focused on speed, checkout, and multi-channel commerce, and Odoo as an all-in-one ERP powering inventory, purchasing, manufacturing, and more. 

Chris highlights Odoo’s strength in operations and native app integration, while Sam explains Shopify’s evolution into a robust storefront with strong analytics, order routing, and headless options like Hydrogen. Together, they dive into frontend flexibility, release cycles, and the 'two-speed system' approach of combining fast-moving sales tech with a stable ERP backbone. 

From checkout friction to change management, this episode is full of insights for teams deciding between best-of-suite, best-of-breed, or a hybrid setup that scales.
