Craft CMS Support in Derby
Support for Derby organisations running Craft CMS, where the licensing model needs someone watching it. Craft and its commercial plugins carry annual update renewals — the software keeps working when one lapses, and it stops receiving updates, so a site can be quietly frozen on old versions without any visible sign.
Why this comes up
The problem
Two plugin renewals lapsed eighteen months ago, and the site has been unable to take their updates since.
What you get
What we deliver
- Licence and plugin renewals tracked, since lapses are silent
- Update status established across core and every commercial plugin
- Updates applied on a schedule after testing on a matching environment
- Project configuration managed properly, so changes move between environments
- Plugin portfolio reviewed for what is still used and still maintained
- Ownership documented, because renewals attach to accounts people forget

Working in Derby
East Midlands
Derby is an engineering city — aerospace, rail and automotive supply chains — so the work here skews toward integration with existing plant systems, quality and compliance workflows, and reporting that has to stand up to audit.
Most work here involves connecting shop-floor and plant systems to reporting the rest of the business can actually read, plus quality and compliance workflows that have to survive an audit.

Craft CMS Support in Derby — common questions
- What happens when a licence lapses?
- The software continues running and stops receiving updates. Nothing breaks immediately, which is exactly why it goes unnoticed — the site works fine while falling steadily behind, including on security releases for that plugin.
- Who should own the renewals?
- Someone named, with the account details recorded. These frequently sit on a developer's or agency's account, so a change of supplier can leave an organisation unable to renew software their site depends on — which is awkward to resolve retrospectively.
- How does project configuration help?
- It moves settings between environments as files. Field definitions, sections and settings can be exported and imported, which means changes are reviewed and deployed rather than made directly on production and forgotten about.
- Should unused plugins be removed?
- Yes, and it saves money as well as risk. Each commercial plugin carries a renewal, so removing ones no longer used reduces the annual cost while also shortening the list of things to update and test at every release. Sites that have been running for several years commonly carry two or three plugins installed for a feature that was later removed.
- Do you work with businesses across Derbyshire?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout East Midlands, including Derby and the surrounding Derbyshire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Derby businesses do you usually work with?
- Most work here involves connecting shop-floor and plant systems to reporting the rest of the business can actually read, plus quality and compliance workflows that have to survive an audit. Beyond that we work across Advanced Manufacturing, Aerospace, Rail Engineering, Automotive and Logistics.
- Do you cover the areas around Derby?
- Yes — we work throughout East Midlands, including Nottingham, Leicester, Loughborough, Birmingham. Derby is an urban area of roughly 260,000+, and we take on work across the wider Derbyshire region rather than the city boundary alone.
