Odoo Community vs Enterprise: an honest comparison

Odoo Community is free and open source; Odoo Enterprise adds paid apps, hosting on Odoo.sh, the official mobile app and support from Odoo S.A., licensed per user. Community suits cost-sensitive teams with many users; Enterprise suits teams that need Studio, full accounting reports or specific localisations.

Enterprise is licensed per user, every year; Community has no licence fee at any headcount. We calculate both for 10, 50 and 200 users from Odoo's current pricing page and add implementation, hosting and support, so you compare totals, not list prices.
