Magento

Hi there,
I have been told previously that I can Add my company logo to magento and change it visually to suit my business. I have also been told I can host it on my server.... Is there any hidden costs for using magento as I dont want to be hit with a bill 12 months down the line

Well it’s open-source, it’s free to use and there’s no hidden cost.

You should check the License FAQ:

I’m an end user, what does “open source software” mean to me?
You are free to download, copy and modify Magento. You can also be assured that Magento will continue to thrive because all contributions made back to the software by others will also be available under the same license. The source code will always be freely available and continue to evolve as the community develops new features, because the open source community uses the same OSL 3.0 license for Magento.
