# Odoo Online
|
|
|
|
[Odoo Online](https://www.odoo.com/trial) provides private databases which are fully managed and
|
|
hosted by Odoo. It can be used for long-term production or to test Odoo thoroughly, including
|
|
customizations that don't require code.
|
|
|
|
:::{note}
|
|
Odoo Online is incompatible with custom modules or the Odoo App Store.
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
Odoo Online databases are accessed using any web browser and do not require a local installation.
|
|
|
|
To quickly try out Odoo, shared [demo](https://demo.odoo.com) instances are available. No
|
|
registration is required, but each instance only lives for a few hours.
|
|
|
|
## Database management
|
|
|
|
To manage a database, go to the [database manager](https://www.odoo.com/my/databases) and sign in
|
|
as the database administrator.
|
|
|
|
All the main database management options are available by clicking the database name, except the
|
|
upgrade option, which can be accessed by clicking the **arrow in a circle** icon next to the
|
|
database name. It is only displayed if an upgrade is available.

## Duplicate

daily operations.
|
|
|
|
:::{important}
|
|
- By checking {guilabel}`For testing purposes`, all external actions (emails, payments, delivery
|
|
orders, etc.) are disabled by default on the duplicated database.
|
|
- Duplicated databases expire automatically after 15 days.
|
|
- A maximum of five duplicates can be made per database. Under extraordinary circumstances,
|
|
contact [support](https://www.odoo.com/help) to raise the limit.

|
to all users. It is recommended to create a backup of the database before deleting it.

Carefully read the warning message and only proceed if the implications of deleting a database are
