Assumption: EUR not USD. A strong free tier exists (Basic) - this comparison is against the paid custom-domain tier, honestly.
Why owning beats renting Onetime Secret
- One payment. No monthly, per-seat, or per-location fees — the license is perpetual.
- Your data stays on your server. It never lives in Onetime Secret's cloud.
- No plan ceilings. Records and users are limited by your hosting, not a pricing tier.
- It keeps working if the vendor doesn't. Self-hosted software can't be sunset or price-hiked out from under you.
Fair trade-offs: you host it, back it up, and apply updates yourself — see the
product page for honest limitations, and the
