help Kentico FAQ

Is Kentico an open-source Ghost CMS?

No, Kentico is a separate digital experience platform, and the current Xperience by Kentico product uses commercial licensing with SaaS and private-cloud options. Its first-party packages may be open source, but that does not make the complete CMS equivalent to the open-source Ghost platform. [Kentico](https://www.kentico.com/platform)

What technology stack does current Kentico use?

Xperience by Kentico is built on ASP.NET Core and provides .NET and GraphQL APIs. Kentico also describes frontend freedom for technologies such as React, Tailwind, and Node.js. [Kentico](https://www.kentico.com/platform)

Is Kentico Xperience 13 the same product as Xperience by Kentico?

No, Kentico identifies Xperience 13 as a legacy offering and provides a separate upgrade path to Xperience by Kentico. The newer platform combines content management with digital marketing, commerce, and AI features. [Kentico](https://www.kentico.com/brand)
