New service
We take over your old system and make it safe again
No documents, no original vendor? We handle investigation, vulnerability fixes, upgrades and ongoing maintenance in one place - PHP, Java, Node.js and more.
No documents? Nobody who understands it? No problem.
Old systems often come with no documents and nobody left who built them. Digi Dinos reads the code itself and works out how the system and your business processes fit together.
-
Takeover investigation
We examine your current system ourselves: the code, servers, database and connections to other services.
-
Urgent vulnerability fixes
The most urgent issues come first: updating to patched versions and quick protective settings.
-
Full upgrade
We move languages such as PHP, Java and Node.js, frameworks such as Laravel, and servers to supported versions, and gradually tidy up old, hard-to-read code (refactoring). Along the way we also lay the groundwork for SEO / GEO.
-
Lifetime warranty
If a defect turns up in anything we worked on, we fix it. The warranty has no end date for as long as your maintenance contract continues.
The "lifetime warranty" applies while your maintenance contract continues. We explain exactly what it covers, in plain words, before you sign.
Technologies we handle
- PHP
- Laravel
- EC-CUBE (2.x, 3.x, 4.x)
- WordPress
- Java
- Spring / Spring Boot
- Node.js
- Python & Ruby
- .NET / C#
We also handle technologies and old versions not listed here. Just ask - no pressure.
Ask if we can helpGet found on Google and in AI search (SEO / GEO)
While we take over and upgrade your site, we also make it easier to find on Google and in AI answers.
- SEO
- Making your site easier to find on Google and other search engines.
- GEO
- Generative Engine Optimization: helping AI such as ChatGPT, Gemini and Google's AI Overviews describe your business correctly when they answer.
We can't promise rankings or AI mentions, but we build the foundation that helps people find you.
