Magnolia Gold Partner · Hamburg

Twenty years of Magnolia, from first steps to production.

menzel.com works almost exclusively on Magnolia CMS — as developer, architect, consultant and technical project lead. We help agencies get started, set up the development process, and take responsibility for whole projects or the parts you need covered.

What we do

Whatever shape the engagement takes, the work is the same: make a Magnolia project run well and leave the team able to keep it running.

Getting started with Magnolia

We support agencies through their first Magnolia project — setting up the development process and establishing the practices that keep it maintainable once we're gone.

Architecture and consulting

Decisions that are expensive to reverse: rendering strategy, module structure, multisite, publication and the author/public model. Made deliberately, with the reasoning written down.

Development and technical lead

Complete projects, or responsibility for a sub-project inside a larger programme — as project manager, consultant or lead developer, depending on what the team is missing.

Hosting on Kubernetes

Magnolia on Kubernetes, including our own open-source Magnolia operator — author and public instances, per-instance PostgreSQL, backups and point-in-time restore.

Background

menzel.com was founded in 2003 by Christian Menzel, after several years as a freelancer and five years as co-owner and Co-CEO of a Hamburg software development company.

  • 2003

    menzel.com founded in Hamburg.

  • 2005

    First Magnolia website implemented — the start of what became near-exclusive Magnolia work.

  • Since then

    Every Magnolia version since 2.0, as developer, architect, consultant and technical project lead.

  • Today

    A strong network of Magnolia developers, designers and frontend experts, so complete projects and dedicated roles can both be staffed.
