ColdFusion Development, Support & Migration
Your ColdFusion application still runs the business, but finding developers is hard. Our team supports, secures, and upgrades CFML apps, and migrates them to .NET or Node.js when you're ready, using AI to speed up the work.
Many companies in the USA and elsewhere still depend on ColdFusion systems built 10 or 20 years ago. They work, but the original developers have moved on, security patches are behind, and every change feels risky.
We work with ColdFusion every day. We can keep your application running safely, add the features you need, and plan a step-by-step move to a modern stack without stopping the business. Read our guide to legacy system migration for how we approach it, or our step-by-step ColdFusion to Java migration guide.
ColdFusion Services, From Fixes to Full Migration
Keep it, improve it, or move it. We help at every stage.
ColdFusion support & maintenance
Bug fixes, small changes, and ongoing support by developers who read CFML fluently, billed hourly or with a dedicated developer.
New ColdFusion features
Add modules, APIs, reports, and integrations to your existing application, following the patterns already in the code.
ColdFusion version upgrades
Upgrade from older Adobe ColdFusion versions to a supported release, or move to Lucee, the open-source CFML engine, to cut licence costs.
Security fixes & hardening
Fix SQL injection and cross-site scripting risks, apply security patches, and lock down admin access and server settings.
Performance tuning
Find and fix slow queries, caching problems, and memory issues so pages load faster and the server copes with more users.
Migration to .NET or Node.js
Move module by module to ASP.NET Core or Node.js, with both systems running side by side, so there's no risky big-bang switch.
From CFML to Modern Stacks
We know the old code and the new platforms, which is exactly what a safe migration needs.

Ways to Hire ColdFusion Developers
Pick the model that fits your work. You can switch as your needs change.
Dedicated ColdFusion developer
USD 2,400–7,200 per month
Best for ongoing product work and long-term roadmaps.
Works full-time only on your project, joins your stand-ups, Slack or Teams, Jira, and GitHub, and is billed monthly.
Hourly
USD 15–45 per hour
Best for smaller features, fixes, and maintenance.
Book ColdFusion developer hours when you need them. You pay for time used, with regular timesheets.
Fixed-price project
Quoted per project
Best when the scope is clear and you want one agreed price.
After a code review, we upgrade or migrate your ColdFusion application for a fixed price per phase.
Keep ColdFusion or Migrate?
Both can be the right answer. It depends on how much the application still changes.
Upgrade or move to Lucee
Best for:
- Stable applications that rarely change
- Cutting Adobe licence costs by moving to Lucee
- Smaller budgets, with security patches kept up to date
Migrate to .NET or Node.js
Best for:
- Applications central to your growth
- When CFML developers are hard to hire
- Modern cloud hosting and easier integrations
- Long-term support and security

Migration Without Stopping the Business
We use AI tools to read and map large ColdFusion codebases quickly. Experienced developers check and own every change.
- 1
Code & risk review
We review your application with AI-assisted analysis to map modules, database use, hidden business rules, and security risks.
- 2
Written plan
You get a plan covering what to fix now, what to migrate, in what order, the target stack, timeline, and cost.
- 3
Stabilise first
Patch security issues and add tests around critical features, so the current system is safe while migration runs.
- 4
Migrate module by module
Rebuild one area at a time, with AI helping to draft code and documentation, and both systems sharing data.
- 5
Switch over and support
Move users over gradually, retire the old modules, and stay on for support and new features.
Rare ColdFusion Skills, Modern Engineering
Developers who know CFML
ColdFusion developers are hard to find. Ours maintain and extend CFML applications as part of their regular work.
AI speeds up the slow parts
AI helps us read old code, document business rules, and draft migrated code faster. Senior developers review everything.
No big-bang rewrites
We migrate step by step, so your business keeps running and you can pause or change direction at any stage.
Flexible and affordable
Hourly support, a dedicated ColdFusion developer, or a fixed-price migration, billed in USD, AED, SAR, or INR.
Migrating to a new stack? You can also hire .NET developers or Node.js developers from the same team. Want to add AI to your ColdFusion or .NET system instead? See AI agent development.
ColdFusion: Common Questions
Can you maintain our existing ColdFusion application?
Yes. We fix bugs, add features, apply security patches, and support ColdFusion applications on Adobe ColdFusion and Lucee, on an hourly basis or with a dedicated developer.
Should we upgrade ColdFusion or migrate away from it?
It depends on how much the application still changes, your licence costs, and your team's skills. If it's stable and rarely changes, upgrading or moving to Lucee is often cheapest. If it's central to growth, a step-by-step migration to .NET or Node.js is usually the better long-term choice. Our code review gives you a clear recommendation.
Can we move from Adobe ColdFusion to Lucee?
Often, yes. Lucee is a free, open-source CFML engine, so moving to it can remove licence costs. We check your code for Adobe-only features first and fix any differences.
How does AI help with ColdFusion migration?
AI tools help us read large, undocumented codebases, explain what each part does, find hidden business rules, and draft the new code. Our developers review, test, and own every change, so AI makes the work faster without adding risk.
Will our business stop during migration?
No. We migrate module by module, with the old and new systems running side by side and sharing data, then switch users over gradually.
Which language should we migrate ColdFusion to?
Most of our ColdFusion migrations go to ASP.NET Core (C#) or Node.js with TypeScript. We recommend one based on your team's skills, hosting, and the systems you connect to.
Can I hire a dedicated ColdFusion developer?
Yes. You can hire a full-time dedicated ColdFusion developer (USD 2,400–7,200 per month) or book hours as you need them (USD 15–45 per hour), and interview the developer before they start.
How much does ColdFusion migration cost?
Cost depends on the size of the codebase, the number of modules and integrations, and the target stack. We start with a code review and then send a written plan with a fixed price or a phased estimate.
