Migrate to Umbraco from WordPress, Sitecore or Kentico
Thinking about moving your website to Umbraco? Whether you're on WordPress, Sitecore, Kentico or something else, we'll plan and deliver a smooth migration to Umbraco - carrying across your content, design and integrations, and giving you a faster, more secure, more flexible website that you fully own. As an Umbraco Silver Partner with two Umbraco Certified Masters, migrations are one of the things we do most, and we've worked with Umbraco since 2013.
Migrating from WordPress to Umbraco
WordPress is a great starting point, but as a website grows the reliance on third-party plugins can bring security, performance and maintenance headaches - and PHP isn't the natural fit if your business runs on the Microsoft stack. Moving to Umbraco gives you a bespoke, secure, .NET-based website with clean, maintainable code rather than a stack of plugins. We migrate your posts, pages, media and URL structure carefully, with redirects in place, so you keep both your content and your search rankings.
Migrating from Sitecore to Umbraco
Sitecore is powerful, but for many organisations it's more platform - and more licensing cost and complexity - than they actually need. Umbraco gives you the flexibility and .NET foundations without the enterprise price tag: no licence fees, a friendlier editing experience, and a website that's easier and cheaper to run. We map your content types and templates across, migrate your content and integrations, and rebuild the front end cleanly on Umbraco.
Migrating from Kentico to Umbraco
Like Umbraco, Kentico is a .NET CMS, so it's a natural, low-friction move. The key difference is licensing and philosophy: Kentico is a commercial product with ongoing licence fees, while Umbraco's open-source core means no licence fee and more freedom to build exactly what you need - usually at a lower total cost of ownership.
What a migration to Umbraco involves
Every migration is different, but the shape is the same: we review your current website, agree what to keep, improve or leave behind, then recreate your content types and templates on Umbraco, migrate your content and media, carry across the integrations that matter, and put redirects in place so your SEO is protected. You get a clear plan, a tested result, and a website you fully own - with no proprietary lock-in.
How much does a migration to Umbraco cost?
It depends on the size of your website, how much custom functionality and how many integrations you have, and whether you'd like a design refresh at the same time. We quote a clear, fixed price once we understand what you need - see our guide to how much an Umbraco website costs, or just tell us about your current website and we'll give you an estimate.
Frequently Asked Questions
No - protecting your SEO is a core part of every migration. We map your old URLs to their new equivalents with proper redirects, carry across your metadata and content, and keep your structure search-friendly, so your rankings are protected through the move.
Not at all. We can host your migrated website on Umbraco Cloud, Azure, AWS or a managed VPS - whatever suits you. See our Umbraco hosting service for advice.
Usually, yes. Umbraco's core is free and open-source, so there are no annual licence fees like you'd pay with Sitecore or Kentico - you invest in the build and support rather than licences. See what Umbraco is and how it compares for more.
