Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Cegid

  • No pricing is published for any product line (Cegid Retail, Cegid HR, Cegid Notilus); every call to action leads to a Contact Us sales form rather than a figure or a self-serve checkout
  • The suite is split across separately branded products (Retail, HR, Notilus, Pulse) rather than a single unified plan, so buyers must evaluate each module's quote separately

Katana MRP

  • The free plan caps SKUs at 30 after a 15 day unlimited period
  • The Core plan starts at $299 a month and includes one location, with more sold as a usage based add on
  • Core is billed per sales order delivered on top of the base price, so cost tracks throughput
  • Manufacturing management, traceability and warehouse management are separate add ons at $199, $249 and $149 a month
  • A full manufacturing setup therefore stacks to well above the headline $299
