The short version

  • Only Odoo Inventory 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 Inventory the One App Free plan covers a single app, so using Inventory alongside another Odoo app moves the account onto a paid 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 Inventory

  • The One App Free plan covers a single app, so using Inventory alongside another Odoo app moves the account onto a paid plan
  • The Standard plan at $16.90 per user per month is restricted to Odoo Online hosting
  • Odoo.sh and on premise hosting require the Custom plan at $25.50 per user per month
  • Odoo Studio, multi company management and external API access require the Custom plan
  • Billing is per user, defined as any employee with backend access to create, view or edit documents
  • The advertised discounted rates apply for the first 12 months, after which the list rates of $21.10 and $31.90 per user per month apply
