Australia's Dedicated Joomla Specialists — 20+ Years of Proven Results Joomla websites that actually work — for law firms, NFPs, NGOs & serious businesses Mambo developers in 2003, Joomla specialists since 2005 — and going from strength to strength

We were actually Mambo developers in 2003 - even before Joomla existed. When Joomla forked off from Mambo in 2005, it started going from strength to strength - and so did we. That's over 20 years of hands-on experience across every major version from Joomla 1.0 through to Joomla 5. We've seen the platform evolve, grown with every iteration, and built solutions that no other agency in Perth comes close to matching.

We have built Joomla websites for law firms, not-for-profits, NGOs, NDIS providers, corporate enterprises, government-adjacent bodies, eCommerce businesses, membership organisations, education providers, and growing SMEs. Joomla's powerful access control and content management architecture makes it ideal for any organisation with complex requirements or multiple user types.

For organisations with complex user permissions, multilingual requirements, sensitive data, or sophisticated content structures — yes, Joomla is almost always the better choice. Its built-in access control list (ACL) is unmatched by WordPress without heavy plugin reliance. It's also significantly more secure out of the box, with a core security team and fewer third-party vulnerabilities. Read our detailed comparison.

Absolutely. We handle migrations from WordPress, Drupal, custom CMS platforms, and legacy Joomla versions to current Joomla 5 — preserving your content, URL structure, and SEO rankings throughout the process. We've done this dozens of times and have a proven migration process that minimises downtime and risk. Get in touch to discuss your migration.

Yes — and we consider it essential. Joomla core and extension updates need to be applied carefully and tested, not just clicked through. Our maintenance plans include proactive updates, security monitoring, performance checks, and priority support. Many of our clients have been on maintenance plans with us for 10+ years. Learn about our maintenance plans.

Yes, this is something we do regularly. Outdated Joomla sites are a common target for attackers. We can clean malware, restore from backup, apply missing security updates, harden the configuration, and put a maintenance plan in place to prevent it happening again. Contact us urgently if your site has been compromised.

Yes. We provide secure managed Australian hosting, backups, Joomla security monitoring, and proactive support starting at $87/month. Our hosting platform is exclusively for websites we build and maintain — so every site on our infrastructure is kept up to date and optimised for Joomla's specific requirements. Contact us for more.

For straightforward brochure sites, the build cost is similar. Where Joomla delivers significant savings is in long-term maintenance — fewer plugin dependencies means fewer things to break, update, and secure. For complex builds requiring advanced permissions, multilingual content, or custom applications, Joomla typically requires less custom development to achieve the same outcome, reducing both build cost and ongoing risk. Let's talk through your project.

Absolutely. Joomla's backend is intuitive once you know your way around it. We provide tailored one-on-one training and custom video tutorials so your team can confidently manage content, users, and day-to-day updates without needing to call us every time. Ask us about Joomla training.

Not keeping it updated. Joomla is an exceptionally powerful platform, but like any CMS it requires regular core and extension updates to stay secure and performant. The second biggest mistake is using a developer who doesn't truly know Joomla — poor implementations create technical debt that becomes expensive to fix. Working with genuine Joomla specialists from the start saves significant time and money. Contact Noah and leave it to us.

Yes — and it's work we're particularly proud of. We have built complex Joomla platforms for national NFPs and NGOs including MND NSW, Soroptimist International, Billings.LIFE and BNTAC. These organisations often have sophisticated requirements around member access, donations, governance, reporting and multilingual content — all areas where Joomla excels. See our case studies.

Because 20+ years of Joomla experience is genuinely rare. We are not generalists who happen to know Joomla — it is and has always been our primary platform. We are local, accountable, and fanatically customer-focused. Our clients stay with us for years because we deliver, we communicate, and we genuinely care about their outcomes.
