This characterization of Craft is incorrect. Single-user “solo” projects are free, which would make it less expensive than OctoberCMS. [1] Additionally, OctoberCMS charges $97 as an add-on for support for its projects, something that comes with the $299 pro charge for CraftCMS.

It’s more agency projects that have that cost; additionally, Craft receives fees from paid plugins that have their own separate support infrastructure.

I personally use Craft for my website and chose it over OctoberCMS, though I had given October a close look when I made the transition two and a half years ago.
