Rebota wrote this guide, and Rebota is one of the five products in it. Each product is described from its maker's own pages, read on the dates marked. Nothing is scored or ranked, and Rebota's limits are listed next to its strengths.
Rebota makes ERP for Indian businesses, including groups, and this page is ours. Each product is described only from its maker's own pages: Tally's and ERPNext's help pages on group companies, read on 9 November 2026; prices for Tally, ERPNext and Odoo read on 5 November 2026; and Zoho One's price page read on 8 November 2026. Where a page does not mention something, we write "not stated": the product may still have it, so ask.
Every statement about another product comes from these pages. Rebota's figures come from its own plan settings and its multi-business page.

Indian owners of several companies, family groups and companies with subsidiaries or associates who want every company in one account, documents between them, and consolidated accounts with minority interest, translation and unrealised profit handled, at a published price.
Groups that must file XBRL from the software, groups that must generate e-invoices from inside the software today, and groups that want office apps and e-mail from the same vendor.
Tally when the companies already run on it and a combined view is enough. ERPNext when a partner will set up the group and you want open source. Odoo when you want to assemble the ERP app by app with multi-company on Custom. Zoho One when the whole Zoho suite per user suits you.
Two or three companies owned outright, little trade between them, and an accountant who adds up the trial balances once a year. Excel stops working when inter-company balances do not match or part-owned companies need minority interest.
Per-user prices counted once per person or per company; partner implementation; GST on prices shown before tax; and the year-end work of matching inter-company balances by hand if the software cannot.
Check consolidation, not just the company switch. Tally combines statements when currencies and ledgers match; ERPNext separates companies cleanly with a partner; Odoo charges more per user for multi-company; Rebota includes up to 50 companies and a consolidated trial balance from Starter.
Take the last year-end to every demo: two companies, one partly owned, one sale between them still in stock, a loan between them, and one company in another currency. Ask each vendor to produce the consolidated trial balance and show the eliminations.
