What is Umbraco Hosting? |
Umbraco hosting is the ideal platform to run Umbraco, a content management system used for publishing content on the internet and on intranets. Umbraco is open source, meaning that its code is maintained and developed by users and developers. Umbraco runs on Microsoft platforms and is primarily written in C#.

Can I transfer my existing Umbraco web site to Storm? |
|
Yes. With our Umbraco hosting package, we make it easy to transfer an existing Umbraco web site hosted elsewhere to us. There's no need to rebuild your database from scratch if you wish to transfer an existing Umbraco database to us. If you already have a Umbraco database hosted elsewhere, all you need is a script backup of your database which can quickly be restored to your Storm Umbraco hosting package. You are also able to take full backups of your Umbraco database using the control panel we provide and can restore back to your site at any point. Therefore not only ensuring your Umbraco based site runs perfectly, but also that it is fully protected from data loss.
