Umbraco Gold Partnership Still Shines

Why Gold Remains the Standard of Excellence

For nearly two decades, Scandia has helped enterprises modernize their digital ecosystems with Umbraco. Along the way, we’ve earned and maintained our Umbraco Gold Partnership, not as a marketing badge, but as recognition of our ongoing commitment to quality.

Gold status validates what our clients already know:

• Our developers are fully Umbraco certified
• We have a long record of enterprise-scale success stories
• We actively contribute to and invest in the Umbraco community
• We deliver solutions designed for growth, security, and usability

For clients, Gold is more than a label — it’s proof that your project will be led by seasoned experts.

What Clients Gain With a Gold Partner

Working with Scandia as a Gold Partner ensures access to the same resources, knowledge, and support that power the most complex Umbraco projects worldwide:

• Trusted expertise backed by official certification
• Direct support pathways into Umbraco HQ when needed
• Tailored strategies for cloud, on-premises, or hybrid environments
• Future-ready builds that reduce technical debt and empower marketing teams

The result? Enterprise-grade outcomes without unnecessary overhead.

Why Scandia Chooses to Stay Gold

Some might assume Platinum is a “step up.” In reality, Platinum requires a guaranteed annual spend through Umbraco Cloud. For many agencies, that means pushing every project into Cloud hosting, whether it’s the right fit or not.

Scandia takes a different path:

• We recommend hosting solutions based on client needs, not partner quotas.
• We maintain flexibility across Umbraco Cloud, Azure, AWS, and custom environments.
• We keep our focus on solving business problems, not meeting spend requirements.

Remaining Gold gives us the freedom to align with what benefits you — not what checks a box for us.

How Gold Compares to Platinum

It’s worth clearing the air: there’s no “secret Platinum CMS.” The differences are financial, not technical.

• Same CMS: Both tiers use the exact same Umbraco codebase.
• Same training: Developers are certified through the same programs.
• Same support: Both Gold and Platinum maintain strong ties to Umbraco HQ.
• Different driver: Platinum is about higher cloud spend, not higher capability.

For Scandia, the choice is simple. Gold gives our clients all the benefits that matter, with none of the restrictions.
