Odoo frequently asked questions


The base edition is free and open source but has a reduced feature set. The extended edition is a commercial product. The final price depends on user numbers, company size, required modules, and hosting arrangements.

In fall 2024, a revised pricing structure was announced alongside the next major release. It offers three options: One App Free, Standard, and Custom.

The first option lets an unlimited number of employees use any one app for free. The Standard plan provides access to all features for a fixed fee, currently $10.90 per user per month after the discount.

Per user per month, including the new-customer discount with a 1-year license purchase. The standard monthly price is $13.60 per user. Custom feature development is not included in this plan.

The Custom plan includes all modules plus on-premises hosting, specialized cloud infrastructure, a built-in no-code development environment, multiple legal entities, and external API access.

Both paid plans include unlimited Odoo technical support, cloud hosting, and regular maintenance.

Cloud hosting may involve server resource charges, while hosting on your own equipment removes those hosting fees. With its extensive functionality, the platform offers strong value in the ERP market.

The free base edition has limited capabilities. The licensed commercial edition adds specialized business features and premium support. The paid edition unlocks the system's full potential; for example, complete financial accounting is unavailable in the free edition.

 Independent developers continually expand the ecosystem with extensions published in the official app store. Free and paid apps let you add specific capabilities as needed. The architecture comprises a core platform, around 30 key official modules, and tens of thousands of community extensions.

The current platform version is 19.0, introduced in fall 2025. Developers support the three most recent releases in parallel. When a new version arrives, the oldest supported version reaches end of support.

Versions 17 and 18 are currently supported in parallel, while version 16 stopped receiving updates after the release of version 19. Every major update brings significant improvements in performance and functionality.

Each system component addresses a specific need, providing a tool for every business scenario. Sales and CRM modules remain the most popular because they underpin commercial operations. Companies selling their own manufactured products online will also need website building, inventory, manufacturing, and accounting apps.
The platform is highly adaptable, letting businesses tailor logic to their needs. Modular architecture simplifies the creation and deployment of custom functional components.


The architecture is designed for smooth data exchange with external systems. Open APIs and ready-made connectors make it easy to connect the product to existing third-party software.


Custom development budgets are always project-specific. Some configuration can be handled by an in-house system administrator, while deeper changes require specialist developers. Additional estimates typically cover technical hours, consulting, and paid third-party extensions.


Migration requires mapping database architectures, normalizing reference data, and importing through built-in tools. Effort depends on the complexity of historical data.


The software was originally distributed entirely as open source, available for review, modification, and free use. It later adopted a hybrid model: the core remains open, while advanced commercial features are offered by subscription or as software as a service (SaaS).


Python and PostgreSQL. The core framework and main components are written in a widely used scripting language, with a powerful relational database for data management. Both technologies are open source and cross-platform. The web client is a single-page application. Source code for the base edition is available in public developer repositories.

Flexible access rights, strong authentication, and data encryption protect sensitive information. Privacy compliance tools manage access to personal data and support anonymization or permanent deletion on request.
Support ranges from public community forums to dedicated enterprise assistance and server administration. Service levels depend on the platform edition
A new major version of Odoo is released annually. The cloud edition also receives interim updates approximately every two to three months. Changes vary by version and hosting environment, so installed modules, configuration, and integrations must be checked for compatibility before upgrading.
