What's new about Odoo?
For Odoo Saas, if you want to use your own domain name, the process is still the same
1. Create a CNAME record pointing to your database in your domain manager (e.g. OVH, Gandi,...);
2. Redirect yourdomain.com to www.yourdomain.com;
3. That's it! Odoo generates the certificate for you, automatically.
Up to now, Odoo users needed to use a third-party CDN service provider such as CloudFlare to enable SSL. It is not required anymore.
If you already use CloudFlare or a similar service, you can keep using it or simply change for Odoo. The choice is yours.The same will soon be available for Odoo SH, it's just a matter of days.
