Umbraco developers with real .NET depth
Developer qualifications
Our Umbraco developers average 6 to 7 years of professional programming experience and hold degrees in Computer Science, Information Technology, or related fields. They work extensively with the .NET ecosystem that powers Umbraco: understanding the framework, not just the CMS interface, is what enables sophisticated implementations and fast troubleshooting.
Ongoing internal training keeps skills current: UI/UX principles, speed optimization, technical SEO, coding standards, and new Umbraco and .NET releases.
Technical capabilities
Umbraco CMS: custom document types, templates, content architecture, member management, multilingual implementations, and package integration.
.NET development: C#, MVC architecture, Entity Framework, Web API, dependency injection, authentication and authorization.
Frontend: HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, responsive design, and accessibility standards.
Databases: SQL Server design, query optimization, and performance tuning.
Integrations: REST APIs, payment gateways, CRM connectivity, and marketing automation platforms, among others.
How we work
Requirements first. Before writing code, we spend time understanding what you're building and why: what problems it solves, who uses it, and which workflows it must support.
Architectural judgment. Umbraco usually offers several ways to implement the same feature. Experienced developers choose the approach that balances your immediate needs with future scalability.
Clean, maintainable code. Code is read far more often than it's written. We write code your future team can understand and extend without reverse engineering.
Testing before deployment. Developers test during development, and separate QA testers systematically verify functionality, browser compatibility, and edge cases before release.
A team, coordinated for you. As an Umbraco development agency, a technical Project Manager coordinates between you and the developers, so you get clear communication without managing individuals. Everyone works directly for 1902 Software as permanent employees; we use no freelancers or subcontractors, so knowledge stays in the company and quality stays consistent.
Two ways to work with us
Continuous Monthly Development: Send tasks whenever they arise. With Care, everything runs in writing at one fixed monthly price: no estimates to approve, no cost overruns.
Care Plus gives you everything in Care at its own fixed monthly price, plus up to two hours of meetings per month with a Project Manager or any 1902 Software expert (for planning, advice, and technical discussion), up to two ongoing tasks at a time, and up to two developers working on your tasks at the same time.
Care Ultimate is for ongoing engagements, often across multiple systems, that need close collaboration: a fixed price for every task or group of tasks, approved by you before work begins, people with the right expertise added to your project as your needs grow, and meetings with any 1902 Software expert whenever you need them (billed at the going project management rate for the actual time spent).
Fixed Price Projects: For a single, well-defined Umbraco project (a new build, a major upgrade) you get one agreed price for the whole thing, fixed before work begins.
Large projects typically start with a Project Scoping phase at an agreed, prepaid fixed price. The purpose is to precisely define what will be built and to establish the final price. This ensures full clarity for both you and us before development begins.
How we use AI
AI-assisted tools are part of how our Umbraco developers and testers work every day, across planning, development, and testing. Every solution is still reviewed, tested, and verified by experienced software developers and testers before delivery.
Free, no-commitment
Commonly asked questions
Do I work with one developer or a team?
It depends on scope: larger projects get specialists in frontend, backend, database work, and QA; smaller projects and ongoing support typically run with full-stack developers. A technical Project Manager coordinates everything either way.
Will the same people handle my project and its support?
Your Project Manager stays your consistent contact, and everyone on the team is a permanent 1902 Software employee, so knowledge stays with us. Specialists join where their expertise adds the most value, and all context lives in our project management system.
What's the typical turnaround?
We don’t sell response-time SLAs. In practice, our average time to resolution is 24 hours, and you can see that live on our homepage. Our 4.9/5 rating across 180+ Google reviews reflects how we actually operate. Larger work is scoped first, with the timeline agreed up front.
Why does .NET knowledge matter for Umbraco?
Umbraco runs on .NET. Developers who understand the framework underneath can troubleshoot faster and extend the platform in ways surface-level CMS knowledge can’t reach.
How is the work priced?
At fixed prices agreed before work begins: a Continuous Monthly Development plan for ongoing work, or a Fixed Price Project for a defined build.
Can you take over an Umbraco solution from another developer?
Yes, we do it regularly: we review the implementation and architecture first, then continue development with minimal disruption.
