By choosing Umbraco as the framework for your solution, you receive a fully operational administration panel. It’s a place where you can manage your application and find the tools necessary for building the user-facing part of your website.
In addition to the authentication and authorisation tools for both the users and people working on the website, you’ll get access to many useful functionalities and components. They include a set of predefined controls, tools for publishing and editing content, an authorisation system for publishing changes and a multilingual setup for your website. It also includes a collection of visual components that provide immense possibilities of presenting your content.

Do I need technical knowledge to use Umbraco?
No, you don’t need technical knowledge to create, publish, and edit content on an Umbraco website. However, expertise in Umbraco web development may be necessary to adjust your websites to the individual needs of a person or organisation. This makes it a great, flexible solution that fits both smaller projects and complex, enterprise-level systems.
What else can the Umbraco platform do?
Thanks to the wide selection of free and paid plugin, Umbraco can be adjusted to a wide range of business needs. Some of the examples include e-commerce solutions with shopping carts and integrations with multiple payment systems and headless solutions that create and gather complex forms that can later be sent to frontend applications built in any framework.
This expandability also allows our teams to create custom components for our clients. They can range from simple controls or dashboards to more sophisticated tools to match individual needs of a client.
What are the best business cases for Umbraco web development?
The most common business cases we encountered are:
- Official company website — the client can use the CMS to control the content presented on their website. No IT team is necessary to make content-related changes.
- Intranet — an internal network for the client’s employees, entirely managed by their organisation.
- E-commerce — an online shop with a sophisticated shopping cart and integrations with multiple payment systems.
- Advanced search engine — Umbraco utilises Examine as its search and index engine. We can extend and develop this feature to provide a complex search system with multiple parameters and operators. The client can use it as a part of client-facing website or in an internal data repository.
