Why update your Joomla CMS version?

New opportunities

New opportunities

Joomla 5 is the latest major version of the CMS, which expands its functionality with each update. For example, Joomla 5 includes all the best features from Joomla 3 and 4, and minor versions of Joomla 4 brought such features to the CMS as Processes, Hotkeys, Educational Tours and many other features that are not and will not be in previous versions of Joomla 1, 2 and 3.

No problems with extensions

No problems with extensions

The current version of Joomla 4/5 sets new standards for third-party extension developers, for whom it no longer makes sense to support their extensions for outdated versions of Joomla 1, 2 and 3. In other words, without updating the CMS to the current version on your site, you will not be able to use new extensions and update existing ones.

Regular improvements

Regular improvements

For the latest major version of Joomla, patches are regularly released that eliminate various functional errors and shortcomings, as well as bring improvements to the existing functionality of the core.

Improved admin panel

Improved admin panel

The latest version of Joomla has an easy-to-use control panel that applies the latest trends in website usability and allows you to customize your interface to suit your specific needs.

Reliable protection against hacking

Reliable protection against hacking

Supported major versions of Joomla 4 and 5 receive regular updates that fix bugs and security holes, while older versions do not receive updates and may become vulnerable to attackers.

Maximum performance

Maximum performance

The current version of Joomla 5 uses the latest advances in web technologies: PHP, SQL, HTML, CSS, etc., thereby providing the site with maximum performance and flexibility in its settings.

Upgrade options

01

From Joomla 1 or 2 to Joomla 4/5

The most problematic option is, in fact, a manual redesign of the site for the new version of the CMS, which will take a lot of time.
02

From Joomla 3 to Joomla 4/5

This migration is not so labor-intensive, but it requires the right approach, because otherwise you can simply lose the site.
03

From Joomla 4/5 to current version

This update is carried out in a few clicks from the site admin panel, but even in this case, problems may arise if the third-party extensions used are not compatible with the new version of Joomla.

How to update yourself?

You can easily update your website's CMS yourself if you have sufficient knowledge and skills.

01
If this is a patch installation, for example, updating Joomla from 4.2.9 to 4.3.0, then it is done in a few clicks from the control panel, but even in this case, you should make a backup copy of the site.
02
If you are planning to migrate from a previous minor version to the current one, for example, updating from Joomla 3 to 4, then you need to follow a clear algorithm.
03
If you are not confident in your abilities, then, in order to avoid wasting energy, money and nerves from possible loss of the site or its functionality, you can use our service by filling out an application.
