Questions about switching from Kajabi
Is Forento cheaper than Kajabi?
Usually, yes. Kajabi Basic costs $143 per month billed annually and is limited to five products. Forento has a free plan, and paid plans start at $15 per month billed annually with unlimited products. Prices were checked on September 13, 2026, so confirm current Kajabi pricing before you decide.
What does Kajabi have that Forento doesn't?
Kajabi includes built-in email marketing, sales funnels, and marketing automations. Forento sends automatic student emails, such as product access emails, but it doesn't send marketing campaigns or build funnels, so keep a separate email marketing tool if you rely on those Kajabi features.
Does Forento take a commission on my sales?
Not on paid plans. Basic, Start, and Scale have no Forento sales commission, while the Free plan charges 20%. Payment processor fees from Stripe or PayPal apply on every plan, just as payment processing fees apply on Kajabi.
Which Forento plan replaces Kajabi's website and community?
Forento Basic includes courses, memberships, and a custom domain, but not the website builder or community. Choose Start or Scale if you want both.
Can I try Forento before I cancel Kajabi?
Yes. Paid plans include a 30-day free trial of the premium features with no credit card required, so you can build and test your academy while your Kajabi site is still running.
