Mautic

Pros

• There are no licence or per-contact fees, so costs stay flat as your contact list grows.
• Self-hosting gives you full control of your data, which helps with GDPR and data sovereignty.
• The core feature set is broad: a visual campaign builder, lead scoring, segments, forms, landing pages and email A/B testing.
• The open source code, REST API and plugin system allow deep customisation.

Cons

• Reviewers describe a steep learning curve and a difficult installation for non-technical users.

Odoo

Pros

Cons

• Setup usually needs internal staff or a paid implementation partner.
