The best Odoo alternatives in 2026

Odoo is a modular business suite with apps for almost every department, available as open source or hosted. That breadth attracts growing companies; the trade-offs are setup effort, per-user pricing on paid plans, and multi-company features that sit on the Custom plan.

GetUp is our product. It appears on this list where it fits, with its limits spelled out. Every price was read from the vendor's own pricing page on September 15, 2026.

How to choose

    List the departments you'll really run in it

    Buying a full suite only pays off if you use most of it.

  2. 02

    Partner fees and internal time often cost more than licenses.

  3. 03

    Check hosting options

    Self-hosted open source, managed cloud and on-premise each carry different costs.

    GetUp

    Our product

    Best for: Multi-location operators who mainly need shifts, wages and paperwork

    If you looked at Odoo for staff scheduling, attendance and wages across locations, GetUp covers that without an implementation project. It isn't a full ERP.

    Where it's strong

    • Several brands and locations under one account and one login
    • Wages calculated from each person's real check-in and check-out times
    • An invoice and receipt archive with the original files, plus sales invoices in the Stock module on Scale
    • Accountants get their own login with per-feature access, without taking an employee seat
    • An AI assistant that answers from your own shifts, wages and invoices

    Watch out for

    • It doesn't withhold or file payroll taxes, so US and UK teams still finish payroll with a provider or accountant
    • One account is one company: separate legal entities need separate accounts
    • No free plan, and no billing in GBP
    • Staff check in by entering a code shown on the location's tablet, so everyone needs their own login

    $108 / €99 a month

    Flat monthly plans. Core is $108 for up to 25 employees, 3 locations and 2 brands; Growth is $173 (60 employees, 6 locations); Scale is $282 (100 employees, 10 locations). Extra employees on Core cost $7 each a month. Billed in USD, EUR or PLN.
