The price factors and how to get a fixed price upfront.

The cost of migrating from Umbraco 13 to 17 LTS varies per site. A simple website moves over faster than an environment with lots of custom work and integrations. That's why I don't use a fixed price list, but determine the price based on what your migration actually needs — upfront, with no surprises afterwards.

What determines the price?

A few factors weigh the most:

  • Size of the site — the number of pages, templates and page types.
  • Custom work and integrations — external systems and custom code require extra work in the new backoffice.
  • Templates that need rebuilding — Umbraco 17 has a modern backoffice; old views are made ready.
  • Amount of content — what needs to come along, and whether it's cleaned up or restructured.
  • Testing and go-live — thorough testing on a safe environment and going live without downtime.

How I arrive at a fixed price

Before anything is migrated, I run a free upgrade scan. In it, I map your site, integrations and custom work and deliver a clear migration plan with a fixed price estimate. So you know where you stand upfront — no open ends, no surprises afterwards.

Frequently asked questions

How much does an Umbraco migration cost on average?

There's no fixed average: the price depends on the size, custom work and integrations of your site. The upgrade scan gives you a concrete estimate for your situation.

Why no fixed price list?

No two Umbraco sites are the same. A fixed list would either be too expensive for simple sites or too tight for complex ones. That's why I base the price on your actual situation.

What's included in the upgrade scan?

An inventory of your site, integrations and custom work, plus a migration plan with a fixed price estimate. The scan is free and without obligation.

How long does a migration take?

That depends on the same factors as the price. After the upgrade scan you'll know not only the price but also the timeline.
