What you get

How Sitefinity support and migration actually works

Concrete deliverables — no vague SaaS jargon. Each engagement is sized to your business and reviewed monthly.

Migration audit

Review templates, content types, media, URLs, forms, analytics, and integrations before recommending a path.

Content mapping

Plan pages, posts, documents, metadata, redirects, and ownership so migration is predictable.

SEO preservation

Protect priority URLs with redirect maps, canonical checks, sitemap planning, and Search Console validation.

Integration review

Identify forms, CRMs, authentication, payment, or API dependencies that must survive the move.

Short-term support

Stabilize issues while a migration is planned, instead of rushing into a risky launch.

Modern CMS path

Move to WordPress, Laravel, or another stack based on editing needs, budget, and long-term support.

From experience

Sitefinity work we have actually done

Our team has supported Sitefinity installations for years, including upgrades, hosting moves, certificate work, and form-to-mail failures. We do not publish ticket counts from that era.

Typical jobs look like this: an upgrade that needs a staging copy, a move onto a server that was provisioned without every required component, administrators who can publish from the server but not from the office network, and confirmation mail that stops because the mail-service account was deleted. If the CMS is Sitefinity and the business still depends on it, we will say whether repair, export, or a planned migration is the honest next step.

  • Upgrades and compatibility

    Version work on a copy, then a controlled promotion.

  • Hosting moves

    Parity checks for configuration, content, and publishing.

  • Admin versus network

    If it works on the server and fails on office PCs, start with firewall and identity, not a CMS rebuild.

  • Forms and certificates

    Mail accounts and TLS are part of Sitefinity operations, not a separate universe.

From experience

Situations our team has handled

Anonymized examples from recent support work (2025–2026). Incomplete outcomes stay incomplete — we do not invent a clean ending.

2026

Sitefinity admin worked on the server, not from office PCs

What they saw
Administrators could not create users or publish changes from their own computers.
What we found
The same operations worked when run from the server itself, which pointed at a network or firewall restriction rather than a CMS bug.
What we did
The issue was escalated for network review.
What stayed open
The final correction was not recorded.

2026

Forms saved, confirmations never left

What they saw
Form submissions were stored, but confirmation messages were not arriving.
What we found
The previously configured mail-service account had been deleted.
What we did
Mail routing was restored and the delivery issue was recorded as resolved.

2026

Replacement server failed the first parity check

What they saw
The website needed a check on a newly provisioned replacement host.
What we found
Validation found configuration and content-parity gaps.
What we did
Those items were worked through until the reviewer recorded that the final check passed.

Access usually needed

Sitefinity admin, hosting or server access, database/export access where available, DNS control, analytics/Search Console, and a list of priority pages help us plan accurately.

  • Hosting or licensing costs are pushing you toward a new CMS
  • You need a staged plan instead of a risky big-bang rebuild

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can you maintain an existing Sitefinity site?
We can help troubleshoot and stabilize issues, then recommend whether continued support or migration is the better path.
Can you migrate Sitefinity to WordPress?
Yes. We plan content mapping, redirects, metadata, media, forms, and editor workflows before building the destination.
Will we lose SEO value?
The goal is to protect priority URLs with redirects, canonical checks, sitemap updates, and Search Console validation.
Do we need to migrate every page?
Usually no. We identify valuable content and redirect or retire weak pages so the new site is cleaner.
Can you help with hosting and DNS too?
Yes. We handle hosting readiness, SSL, DNS, redirects, and launch validation as part of the migration plan.
Do you still work on Sitefinity?
Yes. Our team has supported Sitefinity upgrades, hosting moves, certificates, and form-to-mail failures. We will tell you whether repair, export, or a planned migration is the honest next step.
