yeah, pricing did not make sense for us. We went with Kentico Cloud (hosted, but it is also open source that you can deploy).
Do you have a link for that? I couldn't find anything about self hosting.
(But I did check it out, and it definitely is quite capable!)
> Kentico Cloud is a SaaS model, so you need to host the application that consumes data from it. I'm not aware of an option where you would host the content management application.
So no self hosted option.
