What Craft CMS is

Craft CMS is a web-based, hybrid content management system for sites built around custom content types. Its listed tools include multilingual content, media management, SEO features, editorial workflows, and custom user roles. The plan range starts with a free option and includes Solo for one user, Team, Pro, and Enterprise. Team costs $279 a month, provides five user accounts and one user group, and includes one year of updates; later updates are listed at $99 a year. Pro costs $399 a month with unlimited user accounts and user groups, also including one year of updates followed by $99 a year updates. Enterprise lists first-party SAML SSO, custom licensing, procurement support, and dedicated premium support. Craft CMS therefore combines structured publishing features with account, group, workflow, and support provisions that vary by plan.
