Frequently asked questions
Does open source eliminate all costs?
No. Hosting, setup, customization, maintenance and commercial extensions may carry costs. We assess these with the scope.
Can you migrate our existing data?
We prepare a migration plan after examining formats, data quality and access to the source and destination.
Can updates affect customizations?
Platform and plugin updates can affect compatibility. We design customizations with this in mind and plan validation and rollback steps before updates.
