Umbraco to WordPress migration: A complete how-to guide
Umbraco and WordPress are both robust content management systems, but when it comes to long-term scalability, ease of use, and cost-efficiency, WordPress has become the platform of choice for many enterprise teams.
For organizations using legacy versions of Umbraco, the challenges are becoming more pressing. End-of-life announcements, limited support, and rising maintenance overheads often push teams to re-evaluate their digital infrastructure. WordPress offers a credible and future-ready alternative, built on an open ecosystem with a massive developer base, modern editorial experiences, and extensive plugin support.
The perception that WordPress is only for simple websites no longer holds true. Today, WordPress powers some of the most complex and high-traffic websites in the world, including media houses, government portals, and multi-brand enterprise networks.
This guide will help you understand what it takes to successfully switch from Umbraco to WordPress.
You’ll learn:
- What limitations do enterprises often face with Umbraco
- How WordPress addresses those with tangible marketing and technical advantages
- How to approach the migration process, from strategic planning to execution and optimization
- How to safeguard data integrity, SEO equity, and operational continuity during migration
