• Sitecore Licensing

  Sitecore pricing follows a flexible size-based model, serving our customers who range from small non profit associations with their entire website on a single shared server, all the way up to the largest organizations in the world with millions of visitors per day and multi-server, sophisticated ecommerce solutions. The flexibility of Sitecore's architecture provides this remarkable scalability, and Sitecore's license price scales with project requirements.

  	Sitecore CMS Sitecore CMS pricing follows a flexible licensing cost model. The price for the CMS product is based upon the number of Sitecore Server installations and the number of simultaneous users logged in (your content editors, developers, designers, etc.) There is no additional cost for the number of website visitors, URLs used, content items, or similar.
  	Sitecore Foundry The Sitecore Foundry solution is priced as an add-on to the core Sitecore CMS pricing and cost depends upon the number of distributed websites to be installed.
  	Sitecore Intranet Portal The Sitecore Intranet Portal solution automatically includes Sitecore at its core, and cost depends upon the number of employees who will use the Intranet.
