If you're referring to one of the other odt-specific plugins, I'll let their authors speak for those.
As far as I recall, the ODTImport plugin for Sigil was created by Doitsu. For the few ODT files I tested with it, the need for defining style translations in the config.xml and epub.css to match what the creator of the ODT files wanted was a bit of pain to set up. To rub salt in, about 5 minutes after I finished the setup, she switched to MS Office since she was given a free license.
