Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about Cenaclo — its offer, model and guarantees.
-
Is Cenaclo free?
The self-hosted version is paid once (from €199). The SaaS Cenaclo Cloud is pay-as-you-go from €49 / month. No ad-supported free tier, no percentage on your sales.
-
How much does self-hosting cost?
The Cenaclo license costs €199 (one-time) + €49/year for updates. On top of that, plan for a standard VPS (€5-20 / month depending on traffic) and a domain name.
-
How do I import my Discord community?
A guided wizard migrates your channels, messages, files and members in one click via the Discord API. Migrated Discord accounts become Cenaclo accounts that members can reclaim via OAuth2.
-
Where is my data, with you or with me?
With you on self-hosted: your database, your files, your server. With us on SaaS Cenaclo Cloud: everything stays in Europe (Cloudflare EU + EU database). Either way, you can export everything at any time.
-
What if Cenaclo shuts down or raises prices?
You can leave whenever you want: full export of your data, members and content, anytime, in standard formats. On self-hosted, everything already runs on your side. On the managed plan, portability stays complete — you're nobody's hostage.
-
Is Cenaclo GDPR-compliant?
Yes. Hosting in Europe (EU sub-processors only), article 20 (data portability) and 17 (erasure) rights accessible self-service, model DPA provided for professional communities. No percentage and no data resale.
-
How is Cenaclo different from Skool or Circle?
Skool, Circle and Mighty Networks are genuine all-in-ones, but built for an English-speaking, fairly technical audience, and without a true native live workshop. Cenaclo is the only one to combine French and simplicity (for a non-technical audience), a built-in live workshop, and data that stays yours — full export, 0% on your sales, optional self-hosting.
-
How does Cenaclo make money?
Direct sales: self-hosted license (one-shot) and SaaS Cenaclo Cloud subscription (monthly). No percentage on your sales, no ads, no data resale. Simple model, direct alignment with your interests.
-
Which payment methods?
Credit card, SEPA transfer and PayPal for the self-hosted license. Credit card and SEPA for SaaS subscriptions. Stripe and Lemon Squeezy as providers (V1.5).
-
Is there a free trial?
The SaaS Cenaclo Cloud will offer a 14-day free trial, no card required. On self-hosted, the code is open: you can test locally before buying the license.
-
Can I migrate from Skool, Circle or Mighty Networks?
Discord import is the MVP priority. Imports from Skool, Circle and Mighty land in V1.5, based on each platform's CSV / JSON export. We assist the first migrations by hand.
