Wordpress vs Umbraco Pricing

Both Wordpress and Umbraco are open source, so the software costs are not necessarily for comparison. However, the cost of hosting and delivering the website should be considered as part of selecting a CMS.

Umbraco Cloud has four subscription levels to choose from with varying costs starting from $39/per month. Many of the organizations we work with are best served by the Professional level – due to usage levels, prioritized support, and needing multiple extra environments. This package carries a monthly investment of $569. This package includes the CMS, hosting (with 99.9% SLA), training materials, automatic upgrades, Umbraco security, and many additional features.

Comparing pricing to Wordpress hosting is difficult because of the varying options available. However, when comparing the Umbraco Cloud Professional package's usage levels to various Wordpress managed hosting, the cost of hosting through a highly reputable provider is $400 per month. It's important to note that this does not include features such as CMS support, SSL certificates, platform training materials, and automatic security upgrades.
