The short version
- Only Odoo has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
- Each has a real cost: 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; Odoo the free plan is limited to one app, so any second module moves the whole account to a paid per user plan

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
Odoo
- The free plan is limited to one app, so any second module moves the whole account to a paid per user plan
- Standard runs $13.50 to $16.90 per user per month and Custom $20.40 to $25.50, both quoted with a yearly discount applied
- Implementation services and custom development are not included in any plan
- Odoo.sh hosting is required for custom modules and is charged separately from the subscription
- SMS credits and AI scanning are billed on top of the per user price
