Umbraco Upgrades
Why Should You Upgrade Your Umbraco Version?
Updating your Umbraco CMS is essential for keeping your website secure, running smoothly and up-to-date. If you don't upgrade, you may miss out on important features, functionality and security updates that can improve the performance of your website.
Security
One of the biggest reasons to upgrade your Umbraco CMS is security. Old versions of your CMS can leave your website vulnerable to attacks and other security threats. By upgrading your CMS, you can benefit from security patches and updates that can protect your website.

User Experience
New versions often come with bug fixes and improvements that can enhance the user experience. These updates can make your website faster and easier to use, which can improve the overall experience for your users, and indirectly improve your websites search engine rankings by increasing page load speed and reducing bounce rate.
Compatibility
Updating your Umbraco CMS can ensure compatibility with new browsers, devices and technologies. As the web evolves, it's important to keep up with the latest developments and ensure that your website works across all platforms and devices.

What does an Umbraco upgrade involve?
An Umbraco upgrade involves moving an existing Umbraco website to a newer version of the CMS while ensuring content, functionality and integrations continue to work effectively. Umbraco upgrades from old, outdated, or no longer supported Umbraco versions ensures that your website continues to receive official Umbraco updates and security patches.
How long does an Umbraco upgrade take?
The time required for an Umbraco upgrade depends on several factors including what version of Umbraco your site is built on, how complex your website is, and whether or not your site has any custom functionality or third party integrations.
