FAQs about Silverstripe

Silverstripe is a powerful, flexible content management system that's perfect for organisations needing sophisticated websites with user-friendly editing. Built in New Zealand, it offers excellent security, scalability, and meets government accessibility standards, making it ideal for public sector and enterprise clients who value quality and local expertise.

Think of Silverstripe as your website's foundation and control centre. It lets your team easily manage content, create new pages, and update information without technical knowledge, whilst providing developers with the flexibility to build complex features. It's particularly strong for sites requiring multiple user roles, workflow approval processes, and integration with other systems.

Great choice. Setting up Silverstripe involves technical configuration that's best handled by experienced developers like our Silverstripe experts at Catalyst. We'll work with you to understand your needs, design a solution that fits your goals, and build a site that your team will love using. We handle all the technical setup so you can focus on your content and objectives. Contact us and our team will walk you through what's next.

Absolutely. Silverstripe upgrades can be tricky territory involving data backups, compatibility checks, and thorough testing, but don't worry we can sort all of that for you. We'll ensure your upgrade is smooth, secure, and seamless, often improving performance and adding the latest features along the way. Plus, we provide ongoing support so you're never left wondering what to do next.
