Why Choose The Umbraco CMS?
Offering unrivalled core functionality in an open source platform with proven reliability and performance, Umbraco is great “out of the box”, but also offers many opportunities to extend and grow through plugins and custom development.
Absolutely free to download, Umbraco delivers an easy to use solution, which will quickly deliver major business benefits and revolutionise websites, intranets and eCommerce shop fronts.
Designed for flexibility and the user, Umbraco is a world-leading cloud-based open source CMS. Suitable for small projects to FTSE100 companies, why not join 400,000+ (and growing) websites on Umbraco?
Open source (and free!)
Umbraco is an open source and is committed to being FREE forever! The core CMS is available without cost, clients can configure themselves or buy professional services, plugins and hosting, etc.
Umbraco support community
Never be alone! With Umbraco, you will join a thriving and growing community (220,000 at time of writing). Ask questions, seek advice from developers and community members, 24×7.
Microsoft ASP.Net architecture
Umbraco is built on the powerful Microsoft ASP.Net MVC architecture and fits well with a Microsoft technology stack. It usually uses a SQL Server database and Microsoft IIS web servers.
Cloud-based option
Umbraco can be installed locally but there is a cloud-based option too. Using Umbraco cloud, software updates and fixes are applied automatically, also save on local infrastructure and space costs.
Plugins and extensibility
The core CMS is free, extend it through a range of off-the-shelf plugins. Some are free, some are chargeable – benefit from the past work of others with Umbraco plugins!
Flexible in use
As you would expect from a leading CMS, Umbraco is very flexible and can be used for websites, intranets, eCommerce, SEO, document/records management, mobile apps and more!

When should a business choose Umbraco over WordPress or another CMS?
Umbraco is at its best when you need a highly customisable, enterprise-grade CMS that runs on the Microsoft .NET stack. It's particularly well suited to larger organisations, businesses with complex content workflows, or companies whose existing infrastructure is already heavily invested in Microsoft technologies. For simpler sites, WordPress or Joomla may be quicker and more cost-effective, and we're always transparent about that.
Do you build custom Umbraco solutions or use pre-built packages?
Everything we build in Umbraco is custom. We design and develop the frontend to your exact specifications and build the backend content structure to match your editorial workflow. Umbraco's core architecture is designed to support this level of customisation. We also leverage Umbraco's package ecosystem where it makes sense, but we'll always vet any third-party packages thoroughly before including them in a build.
Can you migrate our site from another platform to Umbraco?
Yes. We've handled migrations from WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, and custom-built sites into Umbraco. The process involves mapping your existing content structure into Umbraco's document types, migrating the content itself, rebuilding templates and navigation, and ensuring all URLs are properly redirected to protect your SEO.
What does an Umbraco project typically cost?
Umbraco projects tend to sit at the higher end of the spectrum compared to WordPress or Joomla builds, reflecting the additional complexity and the .NET development expertise required. A typical Umbraco project starts from around £5,000 and can go significantly higher for enterprise-level builds. We'll scope the project properly with you and provide a detailed, transparent quote. If Umbraco turns out to be more than you need, we'll tell you and suggest a more appropriate alternative.
