Comparing Sage to Odoo? Here's what each one actually includes.
A function-by-function, cost-by-cost comparison of Odoo Enterprise against the full Sage product family - Sage Accounting, Sage 200 Evolution, Sage Intacct, and Sage X3. Every figure is checked against what each vendor actually publishes, so you can see what you would really be buying before you commit to either one.
A note on objectivity. Hatton Locks is an Odoo Enterprise implementation partner - we implement Odoo, not Sage, and we would rather say that plainly than leave it unstated. This guide is built to be accurate regardless of that: every figure is checked against a vendor's own published material where it exists, and clearly labelled as an estimate where it does not, for both platforms equally. If your own comparison points you toward Sage, this guide should still have told you something useful along the way - we simply will not be the ones able to help you implement that particular choice. All errors and omissions excepted.
Sage AccountingFits sole traders and micro-businesses that need straightforward invoicing, receivables tracking, and bank reconciliation - nothing more. | Sage 200 EvolutionFits established South African SMEs that have outgrown basic bookkeeping and need integrated, on-premises-first operations. |
Sage IntacctFits larger or financially complex organisations that need deep multi-entity consolidation and revenue recognition, finance-first. | Sage X3Fits larger manufacturers and distributors, typically 50 to 1,000 employees, with real process-manufacturing depth. |
Odoo EnterpriseFits a business at any of the sizes above - from a first invoice to multi-warehouse manufacturing - on one platform, at one published price, without a re-implementation project every time the business outgrows the last one. |

Hatton Locks is a boutique business systems consultancy based in Johannesburg, working with businesses across South Africa and internationally - from early-stage product launches to established operations looking to compete more effectively in their markets. Our experience spans manufacturing, professional services, construction, telecoms, software platforms, airlines, and IoT. We have built bespoke systems for global telcos and for businesses a fraction of that size, and we understand that the considerations are different at every scale. | Some of the systems we have built are still running twenty-three years later - which reflects how we think about architecture, growth, and the long-term sustainability of what we deliver. As an Odoo Enterprise implementation partner, this is also the platform we know deepest and can support you on directly - from the initial configuration through to the day your own team understands it better than we do. |
