Re: Odoo -- Community v Enterprise Questions

Thank you for the responses.   I will speak with the sales folks, but
I'm generally a larger supporter of "rolling my own" and not being
subjected to unnecessary red tape and license fees, especially for our
use, my $dayjob might pay, just because they can.   Also, the issue
that I was running into is that I couldn't purchase the enterprise
license as a self hosted on a month to month basis, I must purchase
the yearly plan, which defeats the purpose of "trying it out" more
than just the two hour demo.  Just not convinced that it's worth the
money yet.

Another way to ask the original question, does anybody on this list
run the enterprise edition and if so, are you self-hosted, or making
use of Odoo's hosting ?   Feel free to respond directly if you don't
want to share with the list.

At the end of the day, I'll have to just install it and figure out the
specifics.

Thank you,
Charles

There are many different Odoo modules available for use, including those from OCA and Odoo S.A. (Enterprise apps). And there's going to be some overlap between what options there are under the "free to use" and Enterprise modules. You can pick the installation and selection of modules that fit your use case. But if you want Enterprise modules, then you'll need an Enterprise license as already mentioned.
