The short version

  • 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; TallyPrime multi user access requires the Gold licence at Rs 67,500 plus 18 percent GST, three times the Rs 22,500 Silver single user licence

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

TallyPrime

  • Multi user access requires the Gold licence at Rs 67,500 plus 18 percent GST, three times the Rs 22,500 Silver single user licence
  • The Silver lifetime licence covers a single user only
  • Connected services and product upgrades depend on a Tally Software Services subscription renewed separately; the 2 year Silver renewal is Rs 8,100 and the 2 year Gold renewal Rs 24,300, both plus 18 percent GST
  • Gold multi user operation is over a local area network rather than over the internet
  • All published prices exclude 18 percent GST
