Both developers and users of the award winning content management system for ASP.NET, Sitefinity CMS, have been getting increasingly excited about the latest revision of the enterprise level product. Today it was announced that Sitefinity 4.0 will be released on January 14th, 2011 along with the new pricing structure. We are further excited to download Sitefinity 4.0 RC, from which there will be an easy upgrade to the released product in January next year. So, the timing could not be better to get to work on that new website for your company! The release candidate will be available to download next week, along with the SDK, updated guides and documentation.
Sitefinity 4.0 Pricing and Licensing
There has been concern and speculation regarding Sitefinity editions that will be available for the 4.0 release, and the cost of licensing. Whilest Telerik had considered dropping the community edition, instead the new pricing structure addresses the issues. There will continue to be a community edition, along with 4 other editions at different prices based on the requirements of the end user. The community edition will continue to be free, but is strictly personal or hobby websites, and blogs. The other editions aim to meet the needs of the different sizes of organisations, with matching licensing costs.
Full details of Sitefinity 4.0 pricing and licensing are available on the Sitefinity website.
