Hosting your Umbraco website is about far more than where your files live. The right platform can improve reliability, simplify deployments, strengthen security, and free your team to focus on building features and publishing content instead of managing infrastructure.
Whether you're launching a new Umbraco website, or looking to move away from traditional hosting, Umbraco Cloud provides a platform designed specifically for Umbraco. By bringing together hosting, deployments, security, and content management into a single managed service, it removes much of the day-to-day complexity of running a website.
Deploying a website shouldn't feel like a leap of faith.
Umbraco Cloud includes built-in deployment workflows that make it simple to move changes through development, staging, and production environments. Developers can release code with confidence while content editors continue creating and publishing content independently.
Keeping your Umbraco website up to date is one of the simplest ways to reduce security risk.
Umbraco Cloud makes it easier to stay up to date with Umbraco minor releases and security patches, while managed infrastructure, HTTPS, backups, and monitoring all come as part of the platform.
For everything else, our Umbraco support services are on hand to help keep your website secure, supported, and performing at its best. If you need additional help, our Umbraco support team is on hand to keep your website secure, supported and performing at its best.
Migrating an existing Umbraco website? It doesn't have to mean rebuilding everything from scratch.
For many organisations, moving to Umbraco Cloud is an opportunity to modernise hosting, simplify deployments, and reduce ongoing maintenance without changing how editors use the CMS. The result is a hosting platform that's easier to manage as your website grows.
Umbraco Cloud is designed around modern development workflows.
Developers benefit from Git-based workflows, environment management, and built-in deployment tools. Umbraco Cloud can also integrate with external CI/CD pipelines, making it easier to automate builds, testing and deployments.
New environments can be created quickly, making collaboration easier and reducing the time spent configuring servers or deployment pipelines.
Traditional hosting often means managing servers, applying updates, monitoring infrastructure, and worrying about backups.
With Umbraco Cloud, much of that responsibility is taken care of, allowing your team to spend less time maintaining infrastructure and more time delivering new features, improving content, and supporting your users.
Whether you're starting a new Umbraco project or planning to migrate an existing Umbraco website, Umbraco Cloud helps organisations simplify hosting, reduce operational overhead, and give developers a platform designed specifically for Umbraco.
Moving to Umbraco Cloud isn't just a technical decision. It can reduce deployment risk, simplify ongoing maintenance, and make it easier for your website to evolve as your organisation grows.
