Frequently Asked Questions

We handle all upgrades automatically. We test new Orchard Core releases against the platform before rolling them out, ensuring your site stays secure and up-to-date without downtime.
Yes. Since DotNest is built on standard Orchard Core and open-source extensions, you can export your data and themes and move to a self-hosted environment at any time. Because you retain full access to your site’s data, migrating to another system is also possible if needed.
