Odoo Pricing in 2026, Explained in Plain Dollars
Odoo costs come as two separate bills: the software license you pay Odoo, from $31.10 per user per month, and the partner who implements and supports it. Most partners hide the second number. Here is both, in the open, with the math shown.
- Numbers verified July 2026
- No hourly billing
- Official Odoo Partner
- License, to Odoo: $31.10 (Standard) or $61.00 (Custom) per user per month, billed yearly
- Implementation, to a partner: a fixed fee in writing, scoped free
- Support, ongoing: our flat plans run $250 to $1,500 a month

The 2026 license plans: One App Free, Standard, and Custom
This is the part you pay Odoo directly, and it is simpler than its reputation. What people search as Odoo Enterprise pricing is these plans: Enterprise is the commercial edition, and Standard or Custom is how you buy it. Every app is included with the paid plans. You pay for people, not modules.
US list prices as of July 2026, checked against Odoo’s published pricing. Yearly billing is the figure everyone quotes; paying monthly costs about 25% more per user. First-year discounts for new customers are common, so ask before you sign. Prices vary by country.
Standard or Custom: the 20-second answer
Pick Standard unless you need one of four things: Studio (Odoo’s no-code customizer), more than one company on the same database, external API access for integrations, or Odoo.sh and on-premise hosting. Those four are the whole difference. Most small and mid-size single-company businesses do fine on Standard.
Odoo pricing calculator: 10, 20, and 50 users in real dollars
No form, no email gate. The license math is users × rate × 12, so here it is, already worked out at the billed-yearly rates.
Check one against the formula: 20 users on Standard is 20 × $31.10 = $622.00 a month, and $622.00 × 12 = $7,464 a year. Choosing monthly billing instead raises that to $778.00 a month ($9,336 a year), a $1,872 premium for the flexibility.

License cost only, at Odoo’s published US rates. One App Free is not in the calculator because it is $0 for unlimited users on a single app.
Math: 10 users × $31.10 = $311.00 a month, × 12 = $3,732.00 a year.
Hosting costs: Odoo Online, Odoo.sh, and on-premise
Where Odoo runs changes the bill. Two of the three options add no line item at all. Odoo.sh pricing is the one people ask about, and it is structured, not secret.
Odoo Online
- Included with Standard and Custom plans, no extra hosting fee
- Odoo hosts it and handles backups and security patching
- The default for most small and mid-size teams
- No custom server-side code, which is why it pairs with Standard
Odoo.sh
- Odoo’s cloud platform for databases that carry custom code
- Priced by workers, staging branches, and storage, not per user
- You configure the exact figure on Odoo’s own Odoo.sh calculator
- Requires the Custom plan
On-premise, self-hosted
- Run Odoo on your own servers, with no hosting fee to Odoo
- The per-user license still applies on Enterprise
- Uptime, patching, backups, and monitoring become your infrastructure cost
- Requires the Custom plan
The exception to all of the above: Odoo Community, self-hosted, has no license fee at all. More on that next.
Is Odoo free?
Yes in one specific sense, no in the sense most buyers mean. Here is the honest split.
Odoo Community: free license, real limits
Community is the open-source edition. Download it, host it yourself, run it for unlimited users, and pay Odoo nothing, ever. The trade: the Enterprise-only apps are missing (Studio, Payroll, Helpdesk, full Accounting), Odoo does not host it or support it, and each version upgrade is yours to engineer. Your team, or a partner, carries the maintenance. Free license, not free ownership.
Odoo Enterprise: what paying adds
Enterprise is the commercial edition, and the Standard and Custom plans are how you buy it. Paying gets you the full app set, Odoo’s hosting, security updates and the official upgrade path each October. For a business running its whole operation on the system this is the realistic choice, and at $31.10 per user it is priced like a normal software subscription.
Between the two sits One App Free: the commercial edition, one app, unlimited users, zero dollars. A genuinely free way to start, with Standard as the natural next step.
The 25% legacy surcharge and the version clock
Odoo ships a major version every October and supports the three most recent. Fall more than three versions behind on Enterprise and your subscription price rises by 25%. This is the line item that surprises long-time Odoo users.
The math usually makes the decision for you. On the 20-user Standard example above, 25% is $1,866 a year, every year, paid for the privilege of running aging software. A version upgrade is a one-time project, and it typically costs less than what the surcharge quietly drains. That work has its own page: Odoo upgrade services.
The second bill: what implementation costs
Across the industry, mid-market Odoo implementations commonly run $25,000 to $80,000 depending on users, modules, integrations, and data. Treat that as an industry estimate, not our quote. Our number arrives differently: we scope first, free, then put a fixed fee in writing. The figure you sign is the figure you pay.
-
Fixed fee, in writingAgreed after a free scoping call, before any work starts.
-
No hourly billing, including data migrationScope drift is our problem to manage, not your invoice surprise.
-
One-month, no-obligation trialStart with a full month at no risk. If we are not the right fit, you walk away at no cost.

21 users or more? STAR is the custom-scoped tier. Every plan comes with no setup fees, no per-ticket charges, and the freedom to cancel anytime. Full details live on our support and pricing page.
One more thing exists in this category: Odoo’s own Success Packs, prepaid blocks of consultant hours bought directly from Odoo and drawn down as you use them. The mechanism is fine; the shape is the catch. Hours run out, and an unpredictable month becomes an unpredictable invoice. A flat monthly plan is the alternative shape: the fee stays the same whether you ask one question or forty.
How does Odoo’s pricing compare to other ERP systems?
Odoo publishes its prices; most of the mid-market ERP field does not. NetSuite is custom-quoted through sales, and industry reporting consistently describes typical contracts as five-figure annual commitments before implementation begins. Acumatica prices by consumption, meaning computing resources and transaction volume rather than users, which is hard to predict from a spreadsheet. Zoho and HubSpot cost less per seat, but they are CRM and marketing suites at the core; run inventory, purchasing, manufacturing or full accounting on them and you are soon buying the tools they lack. Odoo’s unusual trait is a flat per-user price with every app included.
The line-by-line version, covering licensing, hosting, implementation, and five-year totals, is in our Odoo vs NetSuite breakdown. And if you are still deciding which system fits at all, that is a scoping conversation rather than a pricing table; our ERP consultant team runs exactly that comparison against your workflows.
The small-business path: one free app, then Standard
If you are under ten people, ignore most of this page. Start on One App Free: pick the app that hurts most, often CRM or Invoicing, run it with unlimited users and pay nothing. Activate a second app and the database moves to Standard at $31.10 per user per month with your data intact. Five people on Standard cost $155.50 a month in licenses. Companies usually jump when QuickBooks or the spreadsheets stop keeping up, and at that point it is a migration project more than a pricing decision.
Odoo costs, answered.
How many users actually need a paid Odoo license?
Only people who log in. Warehouse staff sharing a station, portal customers, and vendors do not need seats. Most 50-person companies end up licensing 15 to 25 users.
Should I pick the Standard or Custom plan?
Standard covers most small and mid-size businesses. You need Custom for four things: Studio customizations, more than one company on the same database, external API integrations, or Odoo.sh and on-premise hosting. We tell you which one during a free scoping call.
What does the first year of Odoo cost in total?
Three bills added together: the license, the implementation fee, and ongoing support. A 20-user company on Standard pays $7,464 a year in licenses (20 × $31.10 × 12), a fixed implementation fee scoped to its processes, and support from $250 a month. You get the exact number in writing before you commit.
Why do old Odoo versions cost 25% more?
Odoo adds a 25% surcharge to Enterprise subscriptions more than three versions behind the current release. With Odoo 19 current, that means version 16 and older. If you are on one of those, upgrading usually costs less than a year of the surcharge.
Is Odoo really free?
The Community edition is genuinely free: open source, self-hosted, unlimited users, no license fee ever. It leaves out the Enterprise-only apps, Odoo’s hosting, official support, and the version upgrade service, so maintenance lands on your team. The One App Free plan is also real: one full app, unlimited users, zero dollars. Businesses running their whole operation on Odoo almost always end up on Standard or Custom.
Does Odoo charge per app?
No. Odoo charges per user, and the plan includes the apps: every app on Standard and Custom. The one exception is the One App Free plan, which costs nothing precisely because it is limited to a single app.
How much does Odoo implementation cost?
Industry-wide, mid-market implementations commonly run $25,000 to $80,000 depending on users, modules, integrations, and data volume. Treat that as an industry estimate, not our quote. We price implementation as a fixed fee in writing after a free scoping call, with no hourly billing at any point.
What is Odoo’s cheapest plan?
One App Free costs nothing: one app, unlimited users, hosted on Odoo Online. The cheapest way to run the full suite is Standard at $31.10 per user per month, billed yearly, which comes to $373.20 per user per year.
Can I start with one app and add more later?
Yes, and it is a common path. Start free on one app, and the moment you activate a second, the database moves to a paid per-user plan. Your data and configuration carry over, so nothing gets rebuilt.
