Odoo vs PrestaShop  

Introduction

The time when you needed to spend one hour on the road to get the specific fancy shoes you wanted is over. E-commerce has placed itself at the core of our buying habits. The rise of online shopping lies in its unmatched convenience, empowering consumers to access products and services at their fingertips through smartphones or tablets. From a business perspective, selecting the right e-commerce software is crucial, as it will enable you to reach your audience where they are and retain them as customers. It’s not merely about having a “Buy” button on your site anymore; it’s all about creating a memorable experience for your customers, from building brand awareness to delivering the products to their doors and providing post-sale services. Behind every e-commerce page, a real business demands management, which requires the addition of other solutions such as inventory management, accounting software, marketing tools, and more.
Choosing the right software is, therefore, crucial for effectively attracting, nurturing, and fostering customer loyalty. This page is dedicated to providing enough information to evaluate the solutions Odoo and PrestaShop, and whether they best meet your specific requirements in terms of features coverage, pricing, reviews, and usability. We’ve carefully selected some of the most popular solutions available, including Odoo, Adobe Commerce, PrestaShop, Shopify, WooCommerce, Wix, and Salesforce Commerce Cloud.

PrestaShop

​ PrestaShop was established by French students in 2007. Over a span of fifteen years, it has developed into an open-source software tailored for online store management. The platform is adaptable for international use. While PrestaShop itself operates on a freemium basis, its main revenue streams come from partnerships with entities such as Google and PayPal, and from the sale of PrestaShop add-ons on their marketplace. PrestaShop is available to download for free. The latest stable edition 8.1.1 was released on August 30, 2023, and is the version used for this comparison.
