Umbraco Updates: Q1 Highlights & April Buzz

Hello, Umbracians! Kyle here at Marcel Digital here with your latest Umbraco news. Get ready to spring into April with the latest updates from our favorite CMS. Let's get to it! 

First up, Umbraco 15 has landed, and it's a game-changer! Say goodbye to sluggish load times with the new HybridCache—this latest enhancement will have your website moving faster than gossip in a group chat. Plus, the TipTap Rich Text Editor makes content creation smoother than ever. And Multilingual content? Block-level variants have got you covered!

Over in Umbraco Cloud, security just got a serious upgrade. External login providers like Azure AD and Google are now supported, so your backoffice is locked tighter than Apple’s terms and conditions. And with the new Web Application Firewall, malicious traffic gets stopped in its tracks, saving you and your team valuable time and sanity. 

Marketers, rejoice! Umbraco Engage is now here to supercharge your website with integrated A/B testing, insightful analytics, personalization, and goal tracking—all within your CMS. It's like having a marketing Swiss Army knife at your fingertips, completely integrated with the Umbraco back office. 

And let's not forget our amazing community. The Umbraco Awards 2025 submissions have wrapped up, and excitement is building for this year’s Codegarden in Denmark. It’s the 20th anniversary of the event, and the team at Umbraco has promised an event so incredible it will make Woodstock 1999 look like a 2 year old’s birthday party. It will certainly be an event not to be missed. 

And that's a wrap for this week's Umbraco update. Stay tuned for more insights, and as always, happy Umbraco-ing!
