Umbraco is one of the most progressive open source content management systems out there. But in Umbraco's case, "progressive" does not mean "tons of functions", but a slim framework that is based on lean DNA and which allows the implementation of individual solutions.
At the moment, there are about 500,000 active installs of Umbraco with the trend rapidly rising. Umbraco's specialty lies in its flexibility. It can be used for small sites as well as for large projects. For instance, the Red Bull Stratos website was implemented with Umbraco and it has millions of interactions each day.
This is made possible by the lean approach and the customisation options. Umbraco grows with your requirements and you can integrate everything directly – be it e-commerce, social media, blogs, forums, ERP, CRM or cloud services. And, most importantly, without the need to switch to a different system.
With a fresh interface and new lean functions, Umbraco continues on its path of being a simple and powerful content management framework. Umbraco 8 includes:
The international community is at the heart of Umbraco. As an open source product, Umbraco relies on the use of its approximately 250,000 active community members. Of course, this includes developers, but also editors, web designers, company founders, and many more. They are all committed to making Umbraco better and more user-friendly every day.
