What you get

What your report contains

Built for the Kentico 13 deadline: what you run, what it takes to move, and what each option costs.

  • Version and support status

    Your exact Kentico version, framework and modules, and the date each one stops getting fixes.

  • Upgrade inventory

    Custom code, add-ons and integrations, sorted by what upgrades cleanly and what needs rework.

  • Options compared

    Upgrade to Xperience by Kentico with the Kentico Migration Tool, move to another platform such as Umbraco or a headless CMS, or stay for a short period with risk controls.

  • 3-year cost view

    Licence, hosting, support, build effort and internal time for each option, shown as ranges.

  • Recommended path and timeline

    The option we would pick in your place, the order of work and the dates to hit.

  • One-page summary for leadership

    The decision, the cost and the timeline on one page you can forward.

A 3-year cost view your leadership can approve

Every platform audit ends with the numbers a budget owner asks for, not only a list of technical findings.

01

What you spend today

Licence, hosting, support contracts and the internal time your team puts into the platform.

02

Each option over 3 years

Stay, upgrade or move, with build effort and running costs shown as ranges side by side.

03

Risk of waiting

What changes if you do nothing for 12 months: support status, security exposure and rising upgrade effort.

04

One-page summary

The recommendation, the cost and the timeline on one page you can forward to finance or your board.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens to Kentico Xperience 13 after December 31, 2026?

Your site keeps running, but Kentico stops releasing hotfixes for it. Security issues found after that date stay open unless your team patches them. The assessment tells you how exposed your build is and how much time you realistically have.

Is this audit suitable if we’re migrating from WordPress to Kentico?

Absolutely. The audit includes a migration readiness assessment that analyzes your content structure, plugins, APIs, and existing workflows to ensure a risk-free, efficient migration to Kentico.

Do you make any changes to our Kentico or WordPress setup?

No — the audit is completely non-intrusive.

We perform a full evaluation, run performance checks, and provide a detailed report with recommendations without modifying your live environment.

How long does the Kentico audit take?

Most audits are completed within 3 to 5 business days, depending on the size of your implementation and the number of third-party integrations involved.

What happens after I receive my audit report?

After delivering your report, we schedule a walkthrough session to explain findings, answer questions, and discuss next steps. You can choose to implement improvements internally or partner with Sengo’s Kentico-certified experts for optimization or migration support.
