Still Running Drupal?
From unsupported versions to long-term platform strategy, we help organisations decide whether to upgrade, optimise, or migrate to a better fit.
Why teams speak
to us about Drupal
Most teams that engage REO are not initially planning to replace Drupal. They are usually trying to solve practical problems such as security risk on unsupported versions, upgrade complexity, increasing development overhead, slow delivery cycles, editorial limitations and rising platform costs.
Often what starts as a technical upgrade conversation becomes a broader platform strategy decision. That is where we typically help.
