What Our Customers Say:
UmbHost vs Umbraco Cloud
A factual side-by-side of price, the Umbraco versions each option supports, how support works and how you deploy. Umbraco Cloud's End-of-Service policy moves older versions off shared hosting and then stops hosting them: Umbraco 7 moves to dedicated hosting on 1 January 2027 and Umbraco 8 on 24 February 2027, and hosting ends for Umbraco 7 on 1 January 2028 and for Umbraco 8 and 9 on 24 February 2028. UmbHost sets no end-of-service dates. Version guides: Umbraco 7, Umbraco 8, Umbraco 9.
