Craft CMS 4 vs. Craft CMS 5: Which is right for you?
Craft CMS 4 introduced major performance enhancements, especially for content editing, along with ongoing security updates. It’s a solid choice if you’re looking for improved efficiency and security.
Craft CMS 5 takes it a step further with significant improvements to content modelling, a refined user interface, and new features like two-factor authentication. It’s the latest and most advanced version, offering greater flexibility and control over your website.
Why upgrade Craft CMS?
Craft CMS 3 and older versions are no longer receiving updates or security patches, which means your site could be at risk. Plugins running on Craft 3 will also stop receiving updates, potentially leaving your site vulnerable. Upgrading to Craft CMS 4 or Craft CMS 5 will not only protect your website but also provide you with the latest features and improvements.
What does the upgrade process involve?
Upgrading from Craft CMS 3 to Craft CMS 5 involves a two-step process: first, upgrading to Craft CMS 4, then moving to Craft CMS 5. Here’s what you can expect when working with us:
- Core Functionality Update: We’ll upgrade your site’s core functionality to be fully compatible with Craft CMS 4x or Craft CMS 5x.
- Plugin and Module Upgrades: All plugins and modules will be updated to work seamlessly with the new version.
- Replacing Outdated Plugins: We’ll replace any plugins or modules that cannot be upgraded.
- Custom Code Rewriting: If any of your custom code is not compatible with Craft CMS 4x or 5x, we’ll rewrite it to ensure smooth operation.
- Data Transfer: We’ll update your newsletter system data and other important site information to ensure nothing is lost.
- Testing and Quality Assurance: Rigorous testing will be carried out to ensure your site performs perfectly after the upgrade.
- Seamless Deployment: Once everything is in place, we’ll release the upgraded site to live, with minimal disruption to your operations.
