Re: connectors for Odoo 12

Hi,

I think our answers (at least in my thoughts) were trying to explain why there is less traction than a few years ago for these modules, not trying to sell other solutions.

Maybe another one I observed: our customers still using Magento or Prestashop connectors tend to delay their migration a lot (the complexity of maintaining the 2 solutions does not help).
We have a customer currently migrating from 7.0 to 12.0 (https://github.com/OCA/connector-magento/pull/292).
So, these projects are not abandoned, but if many new customers prefer to use a custom or another e-shop, old customers delay their migration, remain only the new customers who already have Magento and Prestashop for years, ... well maybe the investment of paying the migration of the modules is discouraging for a new odoo integration?

Hi Frederik, hi Guewen,

Thank you for your replies.

First of all I apologize for starting another thread. For unknown reasons I don't receive emails from this list even if I am regularly subscribed and I'm reading your replies from the mailing list archive.

Maybe I wasn't clear in my first email but I'm not asking about which eCommerce to use. Our customer have a few Prestashop based shops already and to switch to another platform is not an option. 

My question was about the connector. From my point of view it is one of the most important modules ever created for Odoo. We are using it extensively for many tasks, mostly to make imports from files. I'm wondering why there are no active projects using it.

If I understand correctly what both of you are telling me there is no more interest in the community to work on connector related projects. It is very frustrating news.
