Commercial Product + Open Source = Perfection
A Simple Model where Everybody Wins!
Best of Both Worlds
ExpressionEngine is a commercial product built on an Open Source foundation, giving you the best of both worlds. As a commercial product, ExpressionEngine is supported by a team of committed developers and technical support specialists. With its Open Source foundation, ExpressionEngine's codebase is 100% open, transparent, and extensible. For a decade we've operated on this effective business model. Our customer satisfaction and growth is a testament to its success.
Commercial Advantages
We pride ourselves on listening and responding quickly to our customers and providing world-class technical support. Because of that, we've built an incredibly loyal following among top web professionals, business users, and independent web publishers. Your purchase of ExpressionEngine directly funds our development and support team, so your satisfaction is our number one priority. You'll never be left out in the cold trying to meet a tight deadline. We're here for you!
Open Source Foundation
The core of ExpressionEngine is built on CodeIgniter, our Open Source PHP framework, used by hundreds of thousands of PHP developers worldwide. CodeIgniter has become the application framework of choice for many of the premiere PHP developers in the world. Why? Because CodeIgniter is fast, lightweight, and open. You simply get more done in less time. Don't take our word for it, ask the creator of PHP, Rasmus Lerdorf, who praised CodeIgniter for being fast and light.
Power and Flexibility
If you can dream it, ExpressionEngine can probably handle it. That's why so many web pros rely on ExpressionEngine, and trust it will scale to handle tomorrow's needs.
Security and Stability
In 10 years ExpressionEngine has never had a major security breach. We take security very (very) seriously, perform continuous audits, and respond to issues with security implications immediately.

Designers love ExpressionEngine because its open template system enables any design to be integrated, and dynamic web pages to be easily created without any programming knowledge.
