> This is the place for discussion around current Pricing and Plans - what is the best plan for your needs?

I’ve just come to the realisation that there currently isn’t one.

Not only do we not fit the new pricing model because we’re a plucky little agency, but the plan inclusions have grown over time such that a higher cost is justifiable.

We came to Netlify via “static sites”, as you were advocates for a simpler web.  
It was a place we could easily perform a CI build and host the resulting static output.

It may be a non-starter in todays SSR fixated market, but a “basic plan” that provides only the original core Netlify functionality for “doing a static build, getting it online & keeping it online” would be ideal.

All we need is…

- Build system
- Deploy system
- Redirects
- Rollback (we’d actually be happy for this to reduced, or even not exist)
- Let’s Encrypt SSL integration
- Webhooks (to trigger the deploy & know if it succeeded or failed)
- Environment vars (we don’t need them “shared”, just a secure way to get them into a build)

For anything else we would prefer to either “not do it” to keep things simple, or rely on our own ingenuity and other services to avoid single vendor lock-in and a potential single point of failure.

While all the features are obviously “nice to have”, (and others would consider them “must haves”), the following are features that WE don’t need:

- Live previews/collaboration
- Serverless functions (we’re happy to utilise other providers for this)
- Background functions
- Password-protected sites
- Audit logs
- Slack & email notifications
- SAML single sign-on
- Role-based access control
- Forms
- Identity
- Analytics
- Self hosted repos
- Build prioritization  
etc etc

Instead of the current “one size fits all” approach, is there any room for Netlify to provide a “back to basics” static only hosting solution?

Which isn’t to be misinterpreted that such a plan would be “free” - We would prefer a plan that provides a simple service, great dependability and a fair price - no “bells & whistles” required.
