Free to run. Hosted if you'd rather not.
The whole CMS - pages, themes, forms, collections, the API, SEO, security and every built-in and free Tool - is free on your own server. That is the only free plan. If you want us to run it, pick a hosted plan: £49, £79 or £149 a month.
Domma CMS is made by DCBW Consulting Ltd, based in the UK. Managed sites are hosted in London. Talk directly to the person who builds it. Get in touch.

Enterprise - your own Domma Site Server
For organisations that need their own deployment: we set up a Domma Site Server for you, with multi-domain sites, your brand on the admin, an SLA and uptime commitment, a dedicated support channel and development hours. Everything in Pro, Data Transfer and MongoDB included. It is scoped with you, so it starts with a conversation.
Bought one by one on Hosted, the Pro Tools come to about £114 a month on top of Hosted's £79 - £193 in all. Pro has every one of them, plus Email, Data Transfer and the MongoDB Adapter, for £149.
Not everything we make is included. Pro covers the Pro Tools we sell today. Some new Tools will be charged for separately - you will always see the price before you add one.
What comes with every site, and what's Pro.
Tools are the parts of the admin that do a job - a shop, a calendar, invoices, security. Built-in and free Tools are free when you self-host and included on every hosted plan with the CMS. Pro Tools are added monthly on Hosted, and all included on Pro.

More, when you need it
Added monthly on Hosted. On Pro, every Pro Tool is included, along with Email, Data Transfer and the MongoDB Adapter, which are Pro only. Calendar, Invoices, Sheets and Surveys are added separately on either plan.
What each Pro Tool costs.
On Hosted, each Pro Tool is a monthly add-on, added or removed whenever you like. These are the prices you pay when you get your site. On Pro, every Pro Tool is included. SEO Pro brings Social Media Pro with it. Email, Data Transfer and the MongoDB Adapter come with Pro and Enterprise only - Email needs MongoDB. Self-hosting? Pro Tools are bought outright - ask us for a quote.
If you stop paying, you don't lose your work.
A Pro Tool is licensed to your site. How the licence runs depends on how your site is run:
- Hosted sites licence Pro Tools month by month, or have them all on Pro. If a payment is missed there are seven days' grace before the Tool pauses.
- Self-hosted sites buy a Pro Tool outright. The purchase includes the current version and 12 months of support.
- Moving from WordPress? We offer paid migration help. We review your pages, media, URLs and site features, then agree a scope and price before work starts. Read the guide or ask for an assessment.
- Moving to your own server? Hosted monthly licences do not transfer. Buy the current version of each Pro Tool outright, including 12 months of support. Ask us about help with the move.
- A paused Pro Tool keeps its data. Renew and it comes straight back, exactly as it was.
- The free version steps back in. Blog Pro falls back to Blog, Security Pro to Security, Contacts Pro to Contacts and Email Pro to Mail Reader. Shopping Cart Pro leaves your shop and every order just as they were.

Built-in and free Tools are free when you self-host, and included on Hosted and Pro. On Hosted, Pro Tools are added one at a time, monthly; Pro includes every Pro Tool, plus Email, Data Transfer and the MongoDB Adapter, which are Pro only. Not everything we make is included: some new Tools will be charged for separately. Self-hosted sites buy a Pro Tool's current version outright for a fixed fee, including 12 months of support. Monthly licences do not transfer when you leave our hosting. A paused Tool keeps its data. Ask us about a Pro Tool.
Enterprise is not self-service. It requires consultation, scoping, and hands-on deployment. Talk to us and we'll scope it together - custom multi-domain setups, SLA guarantees, white-label admin, air-gapped deployment, and bespoke development are all on the table.
Community: you own your content and run it on your own server. Hosted plans: your site is hosted in London by DCBW Consulting Ltd, and your content remains yours. You can export your data as a bundle. Extracting content into Markdown is possible, but you arrange that yourself. After your hosting ends, we retain your data for 12 months and make it available on request; it is then destroyed. Enterprise: deployment and data arrangements are agreed individually.
Yes. Managed and self-hosted sites use the same Domma CMS. You arrange your own hosting and the move; setting up your server is usually the main task. We can also help with migration as a paid service, quoted for the work involved. Hosted Pro Tools use monthly licences, which do not transfer. To keep using those Tools on your own server, buy the current version outright for a fixed fee, including 12 months of support. Ask about an assisted migration.
