A CMS allows authors to make rapid changes to your content without requiring a front-end developer. A frontend developer cost generally $8000-$180000/Y in the US. You can measure how these changes are impacting your website by running an A/B test. Great CMS software allows you to do this in an easy way, without building complex integrations.

How much does CMS implementation cost?

The average cost of these software ranges from $10,000 to $50,000 for the overall package, which includes design, development of custom features, configuration, and so on. You can add a couple of thousands of dollars for training your support staff. The cost may change based on availability, traffic, features and custom development parameters.

Can I use open source CMS for my business?

Open Source content management systems can be used by anyone for any purpose, and do not require you to purchase a license. Unlike with proprietary CMS, you can customize your open source CMS without special permission or license. The major drawback of any open source CMS is vulnerability and security management. When a vulnerability is found, it put all systems running that version. Therefore, when using an opensource system, the system should be updated faster than custom built CMS systems. Fortunately, there are tools that mitigate the attack and makes hacking and DDOS hard for hackers and intruders.
