Competitor prices are from each vendor's public pricing page as seen from India, checked on 24 October 2026, excluding GST. Prices change and differ by country, edition, billing period and number of users. Licence prices exclude implementation, customisation and, where noted, hosting.
Why the final ERP cost differs from the starting price
Compare the total cost of ownership over two or three years for your number of users, not just the advertised starting price. The main drivers:
- Licences or subscription: per user, per organisation, per app, or per company setup
- Implementation: configuration, data migration and training, often not in the advertised price
- Hosting: included in some cloud plans, extra for dedicated servers or self-hosting
- Integrations: GST portal (through a GSP), banks, Tally and others
- Customisation: changes to how the software works
- Growth: what happens to the price as users, orders or locations increase
Where Orus ERP is different
Not better at everything: Zoho, Odoo and ERPNext are mature products with large ecosystems. These are the specific reasons some businesses choose Orus.
A published starting price
Orus ERP starts at ₹5,000/month. SAP Business One, for comparison, does not publish a price.
No fixed per-user pricing limit
Within the plan we do not charge per user. Per-user pricing (Odoo) and user caps per plan (Zoho) add up as teams grow. We size server capacity to your users and data instead, and include it in your estimate.
Built around your workflow
Features can be customised or built for your process, and you can ask for a tailored feature list showing what the ERP covers today and what would be built.
A demo you can use
The live demo is open to anyone, with sample companies and role-based logins, so you can judge the product before talking to sales.
ERP and custom software from one team
When something falls outside the ERP, the same team builds custom software, so you are not coordinating two vendors.
Tell us your requirements. We'll prepare a tailored ERP feature list and estimate aligned with your business needs and budget.
