t is more basic than some specialized CRM software, and the main benefit comes if a company uses it for a variety of needs.

Though you can have multiple pipelines with different stages in Odoo.

Activities full view also exists, the pending ones and done ones show up in different places per my memory. You can get there via the settings in developer mode, can change some menus to make it visible in another app also.

You can BCC into an Odoo alias email box and have it route into a new lead in Odoo and then merge it with another opportunity (inconvenient), or you can use the Outlook module to add an email from Outlook into a specific opportunity or contact, which is helpful.
