How much does Odoo cost in GBP?
Odoo licences run from free for a single app to about £26.80 per user per month for the Custom plan, on annual billing. On top of the licence you pay for the hosting you choose and, if you want it done properly, an implementation. This guide breaks down each part in plain pounds.
The three licence plans
- One App Free: £0. One Odoo app, unlimited users, on Odoo Online. A genuine way to start.
- Standard: about £18 per user per month. All Odoo apps on Odoo Online.
- Custom: about £26.80 per user per month. All apps, Odoo Studio, the external API, and the choice of Odoo.sh or on-premise hosting.
Odoo sets these prices, and your exact figure depends on user count, billing term, and region. The Custom plan is the one you need for Odoo.sh cloud or on-premise.
What does hosting add?
On Odoo Online, hosting is included in the licence. On Odoo.sh, you pay for the platform on top of the Custom licence, billed by worker, by storage, and by any extra staging you add. On-premise has no Odoo hosting fee, but you cover your own servers, backups, and admin time. For most mid-market companies, Odoo.sh lands as the best balance of control and cost.
What does an implementation cost?
A licence on its own rarely changes how a business runs. The build is where the value sits. A good partner quotes a fixed discovery fee to map your constraint and your data, then a fixed price for the implementation itself, covering setup, configuration, data migration, and training. Avoid open-ended hourly meters, because they hide the real number.
What is the cheapest way to run Odoo?
For standard use, Odoo Online on the Standard plan has the lowest total cost, because hosting is included and there is nothing extra to manage. Odoo.sh adds a hosting fee but unlocks custom code. On-premise can cost more once you count servers, backups, and the time your team spends running them.
How to budget with confidence
Add three numbers: the licence, the hosting you pick, and the build. Put them in one view and compare that against what your current tools and manual admin already cost you. The gap is usually larger than people expect.
