Why use Umbraco?

We’ve been developing websites exclusively using Umbraco since 2008 and have been an Umbraco Certified Platinum Partner since 2023. But why did we choose Umbraco, and more importantly why should you?

Is your CMS getting you down?

We meet a lot of clients who are simply unhappy with the features of their CMS, or are frustrated because their day to day job is just made more difficult because it's too hard to edit their site. 

  • You may be on an old platform like Immediacy or Adobe Business Catalyst in which case a migration can make a real difference;
  • You may have outgrown a more modern platform like Wordpress, Squarespace or Wix.

Why Choose an Umbraco Platinum Partner?

Being an Umbraco Platinum Partner means more than just a logo - its a guarantee that you’re working with a team well-versed and technically experienced to work efficiently with Umbraco.

Platinum Partner status is an independent measure of the knowledge acquired by a Partner. All Platinum Partners must employ at least two staff with a minimum of 400 certification points. Our team includes Certified Umbraco Masters - the highest level of expertise - as well as Umbraco Developers. We’re constantly investing in skills development through the Platinum Partner Academy, through apprenticeship training and via conferences and meetups.

With a direct line to Umbraco HQ, Platinum Partners have access to priority support and architectural advice and can request bug-fixes under a guaranteed SLA, meaning that we offer enhanced service to our clients with solutions that can make a real difference.

Umbraco Platinum Partner status also holds benefits for our clients. We have unlimited access to productivity boosting add-ons sold by Umbraco (such as Forms, Courier and Umbraco.tv) and plugins such as SEO Checker and CMS Import. Carbon Six Digital are able to offer these on projects where they would be beneficial, resulting in a cost saving on additional licence costs to our clients.

Umbraco Community and HQ Engagement

The Umbraco community is very active and we love being part of it. There are currently over 220,000 pro-active, talented and helpful members worldwide, each contributing to Umbraco directly and through add-ons, testing and influencing the product roadmap.

We also like to give back.

  • Our team regularly contributes to Umbraco development through sharing of new code and documentation;
  • We’re an active contributor to Umbraco community publications including 24Days.In, Skrift, Community Corner and other written materials;
  • We regularly speak and present on Umbraco based topics at events and conferences including the annual Codegarden, Umbraco UK Festival, Poland Festival, USFest, CODECABIN and the Umbraco Spark Innovation Conference;
  • We’re proud to have contributed to the organisation of early Umbraco events such as TVUUG and UK Festivals, and organise the Surrey Umbraco Meetups bringing together experts from the South East region to discuss the latest developments in the Umbraco ecosystem;
  • We attend Partner Summits to influence the product roadmap.
