Case Study: Sport England achieves a 60% increase in new visitor sessions with Umbraco CMS

A Umbraco Case Study

Sport England - Customer Case Study

Sport England, the national body working to get more people active across England, was running an aging Umbraco 4 site with cumbersome editor workflows, 60+ templates and unwieldy hosting. They engaged Umbraco (implemented by Umbraco Gold Partner Sigma) to upgrade their Umbraco CMS to version 7 and move to Microsoft Azure so the site could be simpler to maintain, more scalable and easier for content teams to use.

Sigma implemented the Umbraco 7 solution using packages like Examine, ImageProcessor, Umbraco Forms, uSync and Nested Content, rebuilt and automated content migration, and rationalised templates from 60+ to 14 while enabling modular pages and in-site microsites. The Umbraco migration and Azure-based CI/CD setup delivered a 60% increase in new visitor sessions, more funding applications, improved editorial efficiency and a more consistent user experience.
