Building a website can be a daunting task, especially for those without technical expertise. Traditional website building platforms, such as WordPress, Drupal, and Wix, while popular and user-friendly, are often limited in their capabilities. They are primarily focused on creating a website and lack the functionality to connect with the backend, such as inventory management, recruitment, event management, and rental management. This means that users must rely on additional, often complex, and costly, third-party plugins to add these features.

Additionally, with these platforms, users are often limited in their design options and the resulting website may not be as professional-looking as desired. Furthermore, for businesses that require more advanced features and scalability, these platforms are often not equipped to handle their needs.

In contrast, Odoo Website Builder offers a comprehensive and integrated solution for building and managing a website. It provides a wide range of features and functionalities that can be easily connected with the backend, such as inventory management, recruitment, event management and rental management. As a result, businesses can easily manage their website, as well as their business operations, all in one place. And the website builder is flexible and easy to use, so users can easily make changes to their website without the need for technical expertise.

One of the standout features of the Odoo Website Builder is its use of AI technology. When starting a website, the builder will ask you a series of questions about your industry and the purpose of your website. These answers are then used to generate a customized design, including color palettes and layout options, which are tailored to your specific needs.

Additionally, the builder also allows you to upload your own logo, and using AI technology, it will determine an optimal color palette for your website that matches with your logo. This ensures that the final design is not only visually appealing but also aligns with your brand identity. The AI also helps users to pick a design that is suitable for their industry, which makes it more professional.

Overall, the use of AI technology in the Odoo Website Builder makes the design process more efficient and personalized, giving users the ability to create a unique and professional-looking website that reflects their brand identity.

The Odoo Website Builder is divided into three main parts: the menu, the main screen, and the webpart column. The menu, located on the top of the screen, allows users to access various configuration-related items such as the menu manager, SEO settings, and other settings. The main screen is where users can see the result of their website as it is being built, and it's where all the editing takes place.

The webpart column, located on the right side of the screen, is divided into three parts: webparts, customization and theme settings. The webparts section contains a variety of pre-designed blocks, such as titles, text, image-text, forms, image carousels, and more, that users can add to their website. The customization section is where users can change the settings of the web parts they added to the website. The theme settings section, users can manipulate settings such as layout, header display, fonts, code injections in the head or body and google maps key.

The Odoo Website Builder is designed to be user-friendly and intuitive, making it easy for users to build and customize their website without the need for technical expertise. The webpart column makes it easy for users to add and edit various elements on their website and make the website look the way they want it to be. The theme settings section gives users more control over the website design and layout, so they can make the website truly their own.

In conclusion, the Odoo Website Builder is a powerful and user-friendly tool that allows users to easily create and manage professional-looking websites. It offers a wide range of features and functionalities that can be easily connected with the backend, such as inventory management, recruitment, event management and rental management.
