Drupal blog: guides, migrations, and module picks from a team that builds it

Practical Drupal writing from projects, not press releases: comparisons, Drupal 7 to 11 migrations, module choices, and real cost ranges.

This is where the Drupal team writes things down. Not the marketing kind of writing, the kind we send clients when they ask a real question: should you be on Drupal at all, what a Drupal 7 to 11 migration actually costs, which modules we install on every build, and when WordPress is the smarter call. We build and migrate Drupal sites for a living, so the posts here come from projects, not from a feature sheet.

Start with the comparison guides if you are still choosing a platform, or the migration and module write-ups if you already run Drupal and want it to behave better.

What you will find here

Drupal content tends to come in four shapes, and ours is no different. Comparisons (Drupal against WordPress, Joomla, and Adobe Experience Manager) for people deciding where to build. Migration playbooks, mostly Drupal 7 to 10 or 11, since Drupal 7 hit end of life in January 2025 and a lot of sites are stranded on it. Module breakdowns: the dozen or so we actually trust, not a top-50 dump. And cost posts with real ranges, because "it depends" is not an answer anyone can budget against.

Why take Drupal advice from us

Plenty of Drupal blogs are run by hosts or tool vendors who need you to pick Drupal. We do not. About half the projects that reach us end up on WordPress because that was the right fit, and we say so in writing. When we recommend Drupal, it is for the reasons Drupal is genuinely good: structured content, real editorial permissions, multilingual in core, and the kind of security posture government and university sites need. The posts here will tell you when that applies to you and when it does not.

If you already know you want to talk to people, our Drupal development services page covers builds, migrations, and support. Otherwise, read on.

FAQ

Is Drupal still worth learning in 2026?

Yes, for the work it suits. Drupal 10 and 11 are actively developed, and the 2025 Drupal CMS release made first installs far less painful. It is worth your time if you build structured, multilingual, or permission-heavy sites for enterprise, government, or higher education. For simple blogs and brochure sites, WordPress will pay your bills faster.

What does this blog cover that the Drupal docs do not?

The docs explain how Drupal works. We write about whether you should use it, what projects cost, which modules survive a real upgrade, and how migrations go wrong. It is the decision layer, not the API reference.

Do you only write about Drupal here?

Mostly, but the honest comparisons cross platforms. Several posts weigh Drupal against WordPress or Adobe Experience Manager, and we link to our WordPress writing where that is the better choice. We would rather you pick correctly than pick us.

How often do you publish?

We add posts as projects give us something worth saying, which works out to a few each month. Comparison and migration guides get updated when the underlying versions change, so the dates you see are real revisions, not a refresh script.

Can I ask you to write about a specific Drupal problem?

Yes. If you are stuck on a migration, a module choice, or a build-versus-buy decision, send it through the contact form on our services page. The questions clients ask most often are exactly the posts that end up here.
