How much does Odoo cost for a US manufacturer or distributor?
Odoo licenses in the US run about US$25–31 per user per month on Standard and US$49–61 on Custom, billed yearly; Community is free. A fixed-price implementation is usually US$3,000–12,000, a fraction of what a US partner billing US$125–250 an hour charges. A 15-user distributor typically spends US$7,500–12,000 in year one.

Where the money goes. Five parts, and only one is the license.
| Part | What it costs | What to know |
|---|---|---|
| Odoo Standard plan | About US$25–31 per user per month, billed yearly | All apps on Odoo Online. No custom modules, Studio or external API. |
| Odoo Custom plan | About US$49–61 per user per month, billed yearly | Adds Studio, the API and multi-company. Odoo Online, Odoo.sh or your own servers. |
| Odoo Community | US$0 in licenses | You pay for a server and go without Enterprise apps like full accounting, barcode and quality. |
| Implementation | US$3,000–12,000 at a fixed price; often US$25,000+ at US hourly rates | Setup, data import and training. The line that varies most. |
| Support and changes | Monthly, by hours included | Without it, every change becomes a project. |

What drives the cost up. It's almost never the license.
Raises the cost
- Messy product and customer data from QuickBooks or spreadsheets.
- Custom modules to update with every Odoo version.
- Integrations: Shopify, EDI, carriers, sales tax (Avalara).
- Decisions nobody makes.
Keeps it down
- Starting with the processes that cost you most.
- Using Odoo as it comes before customizing.
- One person on your side with time to decide.
- A fixed price for a written scope, not an hourly meter.
How to get quotes you can compare.
- A fixed price on a written scope: processes, apps and data to migrate.
- What happens to customizations when a new Odoo version ships.
- Licenses, implementation and support as three separate numbers.
- If it's hourly: hours per phase, and who pays for overruns.
- A similar case, with a name or with numbers.
- Who answers after go-live, and how fast.
Frequently asked questions
Is Odoo free?
Odoo Community is free and open source: you pay for hosting and implementation. Odoo Enterprise (the Standard and Custom plans) is billed per user per month and includes apps Community doesn't have, such as full accounting, barcode scanning and quality.
How much does Odoo cost per user in the US?
About US$25–31 per user per month on Standard and US$49–61 on Custom, billed yearly, as of November 2026. The low end is a first-year discount; month-to-month costs more. Confirm on odoo.com/pricing.
How much does it cost to implement Odoo?
US$3,000–6,000 for sales, inventory, purchasing and accounting at a fixed price, and US$6,000–12,000 if you add manufacturing, an online store or integrations. US partners billing US$125–250 an hour often land several times higher for the same scope.
How long does an Odoo implementation take?
A scoped implementation of sales, inventory, purchasing and accounting usually takes 6–12 weeks. Messy data and decisions nobody makes are what stretch it.
Does Odoo handle US sales tax?
Yes. Odoo has US tax settings and fiscal positions for exempt customers, and Enterprise integrates with Avalara AvaTax for automatic rates. Tax-exempt B2B customers get their own fiscal position.
We already have Odoo and it doesn't work. Should we start over?
Almost never. Fixing the problems that cost you most is a fraction of a new implementation. Odoo Rescue is a fixed US$900 setup, delivered in 2–3 weeks.
