Managed Drupal support and maintenance

Drupal security advisories land on a fixed schedule and cannot wait. We apply core and contrib patches on staging first, run composer updates cleanly, monitor uptime and backups, and document every change. Twelve years of Drupal experience, including sites still on unsupported versions, with monthly reporting so you know exactly what was done.

Frequently asked questions

How much does managed Drupal support cost?

Three tiers: $499 per month for small Drupal 10 or 11 sites, $999 per month for institutional sites with custom modules, and $2,000 per month for multisite, high traffic, or sites still on an unsupported version. Each tier includes development hours, so routine changes do not need a separate invoice.

How fast do you respond to a Drupal security advisory?

Within 72 hours on Small, 24 hours on Medium, and 8 hours on Large. Critical advisories affecting your specific module set are patched on staging first, verified, then deployed to production with a written change record.

Do you support Drupal 7 and other unsupported versions?

Yes. The Large tier is built for it, and includes major version upgrade planning so you have a path off end of life rather than a permanent patching bill. We have run Drupal 7 to 10 and 11 migrations for universities, government agencies, and nonprofits.

What are the included development hours used for?

Content type changes, view and block adjustments, template tweaks, form updates, accessibility fixes, and small feature work. Hours do not roll over. Larger work is quoted as a fixed-fee change order.

Do you test updates before they hit production?

Always. Core and contrib updates run through composer on a staging environment, are checked against your custom modules and theme, and are only promoted after verification. Large includes a persistent staging environment.

What do we get in the monthly report?

Every patch applied, advisories reviewed, uptime, backup verification, performance notes, and how the included development hours were spent. The Large tier adds a named account contact.
