  • Standard Term Support releases get only 2 years of patches versus 3 years for Long Term Support releases, per Microsoft's own support policy page, so teams on an STS release face a shorter upgrade cycle

Weebly

  • Free plan does not allow connecting a custom domain; that requires at least the $13 per month Personal plan
  • Discounted monthly rates ($13 to $32) require annual billing; month-to-month billing costs more ($16 to $36)
