Frequently Asked Questions
Which CMS do you recommend?
It depends on your needs. For classic content websites we often use Joomla or WordPress; for more serious e-commerce we prefer Magento. We’ll recommend the best fit once we’ve understood your requirements. We also support other CMS platforms, contact us to discuss.
Can you take over an existing Joomla, WordPress or Magento site?
Yes. We can review your current setup, highlight any performance or security issues, and take over hosting and maintenance if you wish.
Will we own the website and code?
Yes. We work with open source platforms so you’re not locked into a proprietary system. You’ll have access to the CMS and can move to another provider in future if you need to.
How do you keep the CMS secure and up to date?
Through our Website Care & Maintenance service we apply core updates, plugin/extension updates and security patches on a planned basis.
Can the CMS integrate with CRM, email marketing or other tools?
Usually yes. Most platforms have modules or plugins for common integrations, and we can also build custom connectors if needed.
