An Upmind alternative with no client or revenue limits
Upmind is a hosted platform whose plans are sized by active clients and monthly billings. Ottsa runs on your own hosting, every license includes unlimited clients, and nothing is tied to your revenue.
At a glance
| Topic | Ottsa | Upmind |
|---|---|---|
| Priced by | A single license at any size | Active clients and monthly billings |
| Clients | Unlimited | 50 to 25,000, or unlimited on Enterprise |
| Hosting | Self-hosted | Hosted by Upmind |
Ottsa is the better fit if…
- You are growing and don't want your software costs to rise with your clients or revenue.
- You serve hundreds or thousands of clients with a small team.
- You want your billing data kept on your own server.
- You are moving from WHMCS and want a dry run before any data is written.
Upmind may suit you better if…
- You would rather not manage a server yourself.
- You have fewer than 50 clients and want a free plan.
- You rely on an Upmind integration that Ottsa does not support.
Example: a business with 3,000 active clients and 6 staff
