The honest answer. Odoo comes in two versions on the same foundation. **Enterprise is not a different product** - it is Community with an added layer of applications and services. Everything that works in Community works in Enterprise. [Free consultation](#contact-form) [See pricing](/en/odoo-erp/pricing.md) ### Community Free Free to download - you do not pay for the software. You or your partner take care of the server and maintenance. - No software fee, no user fee - Open source and full control - Main cycle: sales, warehouse, invoicing, online store - Support and updates - Your (or the partner's) responsibility ### Enterprise Subscription User subscription. Everything from Community plus a layer of applications, support, and services. - Over 40 additional applications - Support and free upgrade from Odoo for standard modules - Mobile application ## The most important | What we compare | Community | Enterprise | | --- | --- | --- | | Software price | Free | Subscription / user / month | | Right to use | Open source, free | Paid, requires subscription | | Hosting | Only on Your server | Odoo hosting or Your server | | Support from Odoo | No | Yes | | Free upgrades with new version | No | Yes | | Mobile application | No | Yes | | Customization without a programmer (Studio) | No | Yes | | Full accounting with ready reports | Invoicing only | Yes | | Payroll | No | Yes | | Bulgarian legal reports ready-made | No | Yes | **In one sentence:** Community is a powerful free foundation for companies that have someone to support it technically. Enterprise adds the critical applications for most businesses - full accounting, payroll, customer service - along with support, upgrade, and hosting. ## Prices Enterprise has three subscription plans #### One application 0 € Only one application, unlimited users, in the Odoo cloud. - 1 application - Unlimited users - No customization #### Standard ≈ 12 € / user / month All applications, but only in the Odoo cloud. - All applications - Odoo cloud - No Studio and external links - No multiple companies Full capabilities #### Custom ≈ 18 € / user / month Full capabilities - customization, multiple companies, integrations, choice of hosting. - Everything from Standard - Studio - no programmer - Multiple companies + external links - Choice of hosting [Official Odoo prices](https://www.odoo.com/pricing) [Comparison of editions](https://www.odoo.com/page/editions) Prices are indicative, as of July 2026, with annual payment, and vary by country; Odoo offers a discount for the first year. Current prices for Bulgaria are checked before the offer. ## What is only in the paid version (Enterprise)? Checked directly in the Odoo 19 system, not from promotional materials - over 40 applications that are missing in the free (Community). ##### Finance and documents Full accounting with ready reports Documents Electronic signature Knowledge base ESG reporting Equity ##### Sales, service, marketing Subscriptions Leasing Customer Service (Helpdesk) Field Work (Field Service) Online Appointment Booking Marketing Automation Social Networks WhatsApp Telephony (VoIP) Artificial Intelligence ##### Manufacturing and Warehouse Quality Control Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) Working with Barcode Reader Shop Floor ##### Human Resources Salaries Employee Evaluation Employee Recommendations Shift Planning Advanced Time Reporting ##### Personalization and Technique Studio - Screens and Fields Without a Programmer Connecting to Devices (IoT) Reception (Frontdesk) Meeting Rooms ## The hidden cost of the free version The most important economic difference - often overlooked when only looking at the license price. Odoo releases a new version every year; the paid upgrade is included with the subscription, while in the free version, each extension is a new project plus ongoing support. | Commitment over the years | Community (you carry it) | Enterprise (Odoo carries it) | | --- | --- | --- | | New features every year | The partner develops them as needed | Included with the subscription | | Odoo upgrade with new version | The partner does It manually | Included for standard modules | | Upgrade of your customizations | The partner rewrites each version | Less need | | Bug fixes and security | Only if you update it yourself | Included for supported versions | | Who is responsible for the product | Only the partner | Odoo stands behind the product | Everything that comes ready in the paid version must first be developed in the free version, and then maintained forever - and the burden falls on you and your partner, not on Odoo. ## When to choose what? | Company profile | Recommendation | | --- | --- | | Small company with a technical team and limited budget; main sales-warehouse-invoicing cycle | Community (on your server, with a partner for implementation) | | A company that wants Odoo as an accounting system with Bulgarian reports | Enterprise | | A company with payroll, outsourced service, subscriptions, or customer service | Enterprise | | A company without an internal IT team that wants a ready solution and support | Enterprise | | Deep customization and full control of data on your own server | Enterprise (Custom plan) or Community - depending on the budget and need for official support | | Only one application (e.g. only CRM) with a small team | The free plan for one application, or Community | ## The role of Polimex As an implementation partner, we work with both versions. In **Community** we take care of hosting (on your or our infrastructure), implementation, customization, support, and upgrades - replacing the official support from Odoo. In **Enterprise** we assist in choosing a plan, licensing, hosting, implementation, and customization on a paid basis.
