What is Umbraco?
Umbraco is an open-source content management system (CMS) platform which gives us the ability to deliver bespoke and highly stylised websites for our clients at a fraction of the price of a proprietary CMS.
Founded in 2003 by the then-freelancer Niels Hartvig, the platform has grown into a global brand, which more than 400,000 clients use to host their sites. With a backend which is incredibly easy to understand, offering a flexible approach, Umbraco make it possible for content uploaders to ensure their website is clear, coherent and professional.

Our Umbraco websites
Umbraco events
We host and attend various Umbraco events locally, virtually and abroad. The aim of these events is to socialise with fellow members of the tech community, collaborate and share knowledge about the Umbraco CMS through a mixture of talks and presentations.
We also attend the main Umbraco conference in Odense, Denmark every year. In 2019, we were awarded best-certified partner solution and best designed Umbraco site for our client J.P. Morgan and the website A Story About Trusts. We’d love you to join our developers, so if you will be attending this year, please drop us an email and we can arrange a catch up.
