A dedicated Swiss alternative to odoo.sh
odoo.sh remains a good solution for many projects. ORMdoo is built for companies and integrators who want more control over their infrastructure, Swiss hosting, and direct support — without rebuilding the entire environment themselves.
Key points
- More control — custom modules and addons uploaded directly, without the constraints of a managed platform
- Dedicated VPS — no resources shared with other clients
- Predictable pricing — CHF 79 to 179/month depending on the plan, no surprises
- Testable backups — PostgreSQL database + filestore, restore verifiable from the admin interface
- Infrastructure support included — real human support, not just a ticket in a queue
