deco CMS vs Siteleaf

deco CMS is an open-source, self-hostable content management system for commerce teams and enterprise operations managing storefronts across platforms and sites. It pairs a visual editor for business teams with an AI agent for other changes, operating on the customer's stack. Non-technical staff can edit, create, and publish without tickets, while design-system components and tokens can remain locked. It works with Shopify, VTEX, Wake, VNDA, and headless or custom stacks. Teams can make audience variants by country, state, or UTM and run A/B tests at the edge; results can be exported to Google Analytics 4. Changes are organized as changesets with shareable previews, while content and code stay in the repository, and the page describes rollback as one click. The agent follows system prompts, design-system references, and repository skills; TypeScript typing can block invalid data-layer commits. The open-source core is free. Studio costs $20 a month, billed at $20 /user/month, while Enterprise costs $10,000 a month. The Outcome operation plan has no listed price.

Siteleaf is a content management system for building and publishing static websites with Jekyll. Users can work with existing or custom Jekyll themes and edit through a visual editor or Markdown. They can drag in images and text files, preview changes, and sync content and theme updates with GitHub to review edits or return to earlier states. Siteleaf can publish to Amazon S3, GitHub Pages, Rackspace Cloud Files, and hosts that support FTP or SFTP. It also supports imports from WordPress, Tumblr, Ghost, and Drupal through Jekyll importers. A JSON API exposes Jekyll content, and the service says tasks can be automated with Zapier. Generated static files do not require a database or complicated server setup. Siteleaf no longer provides built-in hosting for v2 sites. Plans range from Developer at free to Enterprise starting at $299 a month. New sites receive a 14-day Personal plan trial without a credit card.
