Umbraco 17 LTS

Umbraco 17 LTS Is About More Than a Release Announcement

When Umbraco ships a Long Term Support release, it signals stability, maturity, and confidence in the platform. Umbraco 17 LTS is exactly that. It is not just the next version. It is the platform foundation that Scandia and our clients will build on for years to come.

At Scandia, we specialize in custom Umbraco implementations. We build tailored editorial experiences, complex integrations, and scalable digital platforms for organizations that expect their CMS to grow with them. Umbraco 17 aligns closely with how we already work and where we are headed next.

Long Term Stability That Supports Long Term Strategy

Umbraco 17 is built on .NET 10 LTS and delivers the predictability that enterprise teams need. Long Term Support means fewer disruptive upgrades, ongoing security updates, and a clear roadmap for maintenance and evolution.

For Scandia clients, this translates into confidence. You can invest in new features, redesigns, and integrations knowing the platform underneath them is stable and supported for the long haul. This is especially important for organizations in financial services, manufacturing, and regulated industries where change needs to be intentional and controlled.

A Backoffice Designed for Real Customization

The modern Umbraco backoffice introduced in recent versions has now reached a point of maturity in Umbraco 17. It is stable, extensible, and ready for production at scale.

This matters because Scandia rarely ships out of the box CMS experiences. We build custom dashboards, editorial tools, workflows, and data-driven interfaces that fit how teams actually work. Umbraco 17 gives us a backoffice foundation that supports that level of customization without fragile workarounds.

Umbraco UI Builder Unlocks Faster Custom Tools

One of the most exciting parts of Umbraco 17 is the continued evolution of Umbraco UI Builder. UI Builder allows us to create custom backoffice sections and tools using supported, native components.

For our clients, that means faster delivery of custom interfaces like reporting dashboards, structured data editors, and integrated workflow tools. It also means those tools look and feel like Umbraco, are easier for editors to adopt, and remain compatible with future versions.

This is a major step forward for teams that rely on Umbraco as more than just a content repository.

Better Editorial Workflows for Marketing Teams

Umbraco 17 includes practical editorial improvements that directly impact day to day productivity. Release Sets allow editors to group content changes and publish them together. This makes coordinated launches easier and reduces risk during high traffic campaigns.

Improved date handling and consistency across environments also helps teams working across regions and time zones. These details may seem small, but they make a real difference for marketing teams managing complex content operations.

Accelerating Personalization With Umbraco Engage

Scandia has been accelerating our work with Umbraco Engage, helping clients deliver personalized and data-informed experiences. Umbraco 17 adds Deploy support for Engage configurations, which allows personalization setups to move cleanly between environments.

This enables a more mature delivery workflow where personalization can be tested, reviewed, and deployed alongside code. It also reduces manual rework and improves reliability across staging and production environments.

For organizations serious about personalization, this is a meaningful step forward.
