TYPO3 Agency Esslingen

It is 15 kilometres from Stuttgart-Feuerbach to Esslingen am Neckar, around 20 minutes on the B10. At that distance we do not spend long debating video call versus site visit, we just drive over when it helps. With TYPO3 that pays off, because the decisive questions about page structure and editorial permissions are best settled together in front of one screen. And so you know where you stand: aceArt is an official Silver Member of the TYPO3 Association.

TYPO3 from Stuttgart, for Esslingen

Esslingen lives on automotive suppliers and mechanical engineering, and with Hochschule Esslingen it also hosts an organisation of a very different kind. Different as those two worlds are, they arrive at TYPO3 for the same reason. These are websites that have grown over years, that many people write in at the same time, and that nobody wants to rebuild from scratch every second year.

At a supplier that usually means product areas in several languages, technical data coming out of another system, and a handful of people who may only touch their own branch of the page tree. In a university setting the shape is different but the problem is related, namely a great many editors with very mixed technical backgrounds. TYPO3 handles both cleanly, provided permissions and page tree were thought through from the start. Straightening that out later is possible, but it costs far more time than a good half hour at a whiteboard at the beginning.

What we do with TYPO3

For companies and institutions in Esslingen and the surrounding district we take on the full range around TYPO3:

  • TYPO3 development: custom Extbase extensions and interfaces to ERP, CRM or inventory systems
  • TYPO3 web design: custom sitepackages or a rework of existing templates
  • TYPO3 maintenance & security: ongoing care, security advisories, quick help when it matters
  • TYPO3 update installation: safe LTS migrations without surprises in live operation

Frequently asked questions

Do you have an office in Esslingen?
No, our only location is Stuttgart-Feuerbach. At 15 kilometres we would have little use for a second one. Meetings in Esslingen are the normal case for us, not something that needs special justification.
Can several departments work in the same backend without getting in each other's way?
Yes, that is one of the strengths of TYPO3. We set up user groups and page permissions so that each department sees exactly its own area and nothing else. Someone who only maintains press releases gets to see only the fields needed for that.
We are stuck on an old TYPO3 version. How do you approach that?
First we look at the installed extensions, because that is almost always where the effort of a jump to the current LTS is decided. After that you get a plan with the steps and the places where it will get awkward. The migration runs on a copy, and the live system stays untouched until everything holds.
Do you run editor training at our offices?
Yes, and with such a short trip it makes sense. Training on real content and on people’s own machines tends to stick better than a general introduction over a shared screen.
