Our Drupal Support Services: An Overview
Is investing in your Drupal maintenance services worth our time and money?
Undoubtedly, investing in Drupal maintenance and support services is always worth it. As an example, we had a customer come to us who hadn't updated their site for years; the security was so weak that we were forced to completely rebuild from scratch. Instead of spending just hundreds of dollars in one month or quarter, the customer ended up having to invest thousands of dollars into fixing all their issues
Rather than pondering if Drupal maintenance/support is beneficial, the more appropriate inquiry would be, "How often should I receive Drupal maintenance and support assistance?"

Are you unsure if your Drupal website needs maintenance? Here are the signs to look out for!
Have you ever experienced the frustration of your Drupal website suddenly going offline? This is a common occurrence that can be avoided with proper maintenance. To save yourself time and money, here are some tell-tale signs to watch out for which will signal the need for an update or tune-up on your site.
Symptoms of a broken Drupal website
Your Configuration or Admin panel says there are security updates available
You’re on a older version of Drupal
Your Drupal “Status Reports” states there are updates
Your super admin user has received an update email notice from the Drupal.org
You can’t remember the last time you updated your site
Increase in errors in Google Webmaster
Broken URLs
Slow site speed
Will recruiting a Drupal maintenance company be beneficial to my business?
Whether you need assistance updating your Drupal site depends largely on how much experience you have with it. If the idea of logging into a backend fills you with dread and custom modules are completely foreign to you, then it's best to hire professionals who can help. On the other hand, if years of working in Drupal has made you an expert at navigating its inner workings, including making commits to Drupal.org – chances are that personal intervention is not necessary for keeping your website up-to-date.
You should hire a Drupal maintenance company if
You have several custom modules
You’re migrating Drupal versions
You have several different servers
You’re several Drupal updates behind
You’ve never updated your site before
Have several custom integrations
You have no internal staff to do security upgrades
You need training and documentation
You have a difficult Drupal backend
How much of hours should I allot to Drupal support?
To make the most of your maintenance costs, you should aim for a minimum of 10 hours each month spent optimizing Drupal. This window should be plenty to take care of essential module updates, security patches and even some minor modifications that may crop up while running the site.
To receive a steady flow of development changes each month, you must invest 20+ hours/month.
Projected Drupal maintenance hours
Basic updates - 10 hrs/month
Basic updates + some development:
20 hrs/month
Advanced updates + heavy development: 40+ hrs/month
