The risk of waiting

The risk of waiting

Still running Umbraco V13?

Security vulnerabilities

After December 2026, V13 receives no security patches. Every vulnerability that's discovered goes unaddressed.

Falling further behind

V17 runs on .NET 8. V13 doesn't. The performance gap and missing features grow every month you stay put.


Urgency builds

Leaving it late means competing for developer availability in a narrow window. Fixed-price availability fills up.

The December deadline

We're booking fixed-price upgrade slots now.

What you get

What you get

Four things that matter most

Fixed price. No surprises

You'll know the exact cost before we start. No day-rate ambiguity, no change requests, no scope creep. One price, clearly agreed.

Delivered in two weeks.

From kick-off to handover in 14 days. A fixed timeline means you can plan communications, freezes, and team availability in advance.

Your site stays live throughout.

We run the upgrade in a parallel environment. Your live site keeps running. We switch over only when everything is verified and tested.

30 days of post-upgrade cover.

Included in the fixed price. If anything surfaces in the weeks after go-live, we're on it. No separate support retainer needed.

Testing & handover

Full regression testing on key journeys. Documentation, training notes, and 30 days of post-launch cover included.

Don't get left behind

*When might the prices be higher?

⚠️

Your site uses custom Backoffice extensions. Bespoke dashboards, property editors, or section views built for V13's AngularJS architecture will need updating.

⚠️

You have third-party integrations like CRM, payment, or data feeds that were hand-built for V13 and may need remapping.

⚠️

You're a uSync.Complete user with complex sync configurations that need additional review before migration.

⚠️

Your hosting environment is load-balanced, multi-region, or has bespoke Azure configuration that adds scope to testing.
