Why Umbraco is the CMS solution to make your business understandable

At Jones and Palmer, we've had the privilege of partnering with Umbraco for many years. But why do we choose to use Umbraco, and what are the key benefits?

Umbraco “The Friendly CMS”  is an open-source content management platform that utilises the widely recognised and trusted .NET framework from Microsoft. Originating from Denmark, the platform was aptly named "Umbraco", derived from the Danish term for "Alan Key”, which reflects its versatile and user-friendly nature. Umbraco, first released in 1997, provides a powerful content management foundation for developing bespoke highly functional solutions – fully extensible and integrable, offering endless flexibility to craft unique digital IR experiences.

Umbraco's robust content management system and flexible tools enable you to optimise every touchpoint and increase the performance of your online metrics. By blending creativity with engineering, you can unlock the full potential of your corporate, investor or annual report website.
