Hassle-Free Upgrades,
Any Version
We take the risk, complexity, and guesswork out of upgrading your Craft CMS, no matter which version you're on today. Transparent pricing, a battle-tested process, and zero downtime for your live site.
Why Upgrade Your Craft CMS?
Staying on an outdated version doesn't just hold you back: it actively puts your site at risk.
Security exposure
Unsupported versions stop receiving security patches. Every day on an end-of-life version increases your risk.
Plugin ecosystem drift
Plugin developers target the latest Craft version. Staying behind means losing access to updates, features, and bug fixes.
Performance degradation
Newer Craft versions bring caching improvements, faster control panel UX, and better database handling, directly affecting your Core Web Vitals.
Rising cost of inaction
The longer you wait, the bigger the version gap, the more expensive and complex the migration becomes.
End-to-End Upgrade Service,
From Audit to Post-Launch
Every upgrade project follows our proven 6-phase process. We handle the core, every plugin, your custom code, templates, and integrations, so you don't have to.
How Does It Work?
Every upgrade follows our proven 6-phase process:
Discovery & audit
We assess your Craft version, PHP version, server stack, every plugin, custom modules, content model, and third-party integrations.
Upgrade path planning
We determine the optimal route, whether a direct jump or stepped migration, and document every dependency and potential blocker.
Staging environment
We clone your live site into an isolated staging environment. All upgrade work happens here first: your live site is never at risk.
Core & plugin migration
We upgrade the Craft core, update all compatible plugins, replace discontinued ones, and rebuild any incompatible custom modules.
QA, testing & go-live
Cross-browser testing, performance benchmarking, and data integrity checks, followed by a coordinated deployment to production with a rollback plan in place.
Post-launch support
We monitor your site after go-live and train your editors on new CMS features. If anything comes up, we fix it. That's included.

Frequently Asked Questions
I'm not sure which Craft version I'm on. Can you help?
Absolutely. Share your site URL and we'll identify your version, plugins, and server stack for free.
Do I need to buy a new Craft CMS license?
It depends on your current license and the target version. We'll advise you on licensing as part of the planning phase — no surprises.
Can I wait for Craft CMS 6?
Craft CMS 5 will be supported until the end of 2030, so there's no rush from a support perspective. However, Craft 6 is expected to change its technical foundation significantly. That means an upgrade from your current outdated version directly to Craft 6 is likely to be considerably more costly and complex than upgrading to Craft 5 now. By upgrading today, you benefit from years of security patches, performance improvements, and plugin compatibility — and you'll be in a much better starting position when Craft 6 arrives.
Do you offer ongoing maintenance after the upgrade?
Yes. Our Care for Craft CMS service keeps your site updated, secure, and performing well long after the major upgrade is done.
What if something goes wrong after go-live?
We include a post-launch monitoring period of 2 weeks and a full rollback plan. If an issue appears, we fix it — that's included.
Can you upgrade a site with Craft Commerce?
Yes. Commerce upgrades are part of our standard service. We handle the Commerce-specific migration steps alongside the core upgrade.
What happens to my content and data?
All content, assets, users, and relationships are preserved. We run data integrity checks before and after every upgrade.
What if some of my plugins aren't compatible with the new version?
We identify these in the audit. For each one, we either find a compatible alternative, rebuild the functionality, or work with the plugin developer to get an update.
Will my website go offline during the upgrade?
No. We perform all work on a staging environment. The switch to the upgraded version is a coordinated deployment with minimal-to-zero downtime.
How long does a typical upgrade take?
Most upgrades take 2–6 weeks depending on complexity, plugin count, and custom code. We'll give you a clear timeline after the free audit.
What happens after the upgrade?
Craft CMS 5 will be supported until the end of 2030, so your upgraded site has a long runway ahead. To keep it in top shape, we offer webhub Care for Craft CMS — an ongoing support agreement that covers regular updates, security monitoring, performance checks, and priority bug fixes so you never fall behind again.
What's the difference between a Craft CMS update and an upgrade?
Updates are minor version bumps (e.g. 4.5 to 4.6) and are usually safe to run with minimal risk. Upgrades cross major versions (e.g. 3.x to 4.x or 4.x to 5.x) and involve breaking changes to the core, plugins, and templates that need expert handling.
