Umbraco Upgrade
On September 30, 2023, Umbraco 7 will be End-of-Life. This means it will no longer be supported with security patches, and we no longer recommend hosting sites on this version.
Since v7, Umbraco had been on a major road map of ensuring cms is inline with the Microsoft latest .NET Core technology. .NET Core is written from scratch to make it modular, lightweight, fast, reliable, and cross-platform Framework. Umbraco CMS has also been written from scratch to utilise all these benefits.
DigitallyMedia has been managing & hosting 100+ Umbraco Websites across all versions. We have noticed that running websites on Umbraco 11 are faster & more consistent. You will not experience hosting issues like site being slow or going down due to memory leakages.
We have experience in inheriting solutions developed by other companies, where – following a code review of your solution – we provide ongoing maintenance, new-feature development, and Umbraco upgrades.
Any Umbraco Clients who are on lower version of Umbraco should upgrade to v11.
Our study of Umbraco websites across the globe have shown that:-
are Umbraco v7
are Umbraco v8
are Umbraco v10
are Umbraco v11
We guarantee your Site Upgrade
from v7 to v11!
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Can we upgrade straight from 7 to 11?
It’s not possible to jump directly as there are a lot of changes required when moving from Umbraco 7 to Umbraco 11.
Upgrading your Umbraco 7 website requires the correct strategy and guidance. It requires a process to be followed to move to .NET Core and get your Umbraco site to version 9 and this is where developer support can be beneficial to ensure Umbraco migrations and upgrades are as seamless and stress-free as possible.
-
How is content treated in Umbraco 11?
The data structures, such as how nested content is treated, are different in Umbraco 11. In the Umbraco 8 release cycle, Umbraco created the Block List, which is an updated data type to the nested content that allows editors a better experience when modifying the nested elements.
Umbraco 11 has introduced The Block Grid data type which combines the Block List from Umbraco 8 with the grid, so editors can visualize the look and feel of the page, while also allowing complex blocks to be placed anywhere in the grid.
