PHP upgrade and migration services in Chile
Mobile-first products in Spanish or Portuguese, built by senior engineers at cost-effective rates.
Clarigo Infotech upgrades and migrates legacy PHP applications: PHP 5 and 7 to PHP 8, hand-written PHP to Laravel or Symfony, old CMS and framework versions to supported ones, or a full move to Node.js or another stack when that is the better long-term choice. We add tests first, then upgrade step by step, so the site or app keeps working throughout.
Chilean companies most often hire us for fintech, mining and logistics software, and AI automation.

What our PHP migration covers
PHP version upgrades
PHP 5.x and 7.x to PHP 8, fixing deprecated functions, extensions and incompatible libraries.
Framework upgrades
Old Laravel, Symfony, CodeIgniter, CakePHP and Zend versions brought up to supported releases.
Legacy PHP to Laravel
Unstructured PHP code reorganised into a clean, tested Laravel or Symfony application.
PHP to Node.js or other stacks
A planned migration to Node.js, Python or another stack when it fits your team and roadmap.
Database and hosting
MySQL upgrades, query fixes, and a move from shared hosting to containers or the cloud.
Security and performance
Security patches, dependency updates, caching and profiling so the app is safe and fast.
How we approach PHP migration
Why PHP upgrades can't wait
Older PHP versions no longer receive security updates, and many hosts and libraries are dropping support. An upgrade closes known vulnerabilities and usually makes the application noticeably faster.
Tests before changes
Legacy PHP rarely has tests. We add them around the most important flows first, so we can prove the upgraded version behaves exactly like the old one.
Built for Chilean teams
Time-zone overlap
Chile is eight and a half to nine and a half hours behind India. We run flexible late shifts for a live daily stand-up in your morning, and the rest of the work moves forward while you sleep, so updates are ready when your day starts.
Chile's data protection law (Law 19.628, updated by Law 21.719)
We design to Chile's data protection rules: a clear legal basis and purpose for personal data, security controls and data-subject rights, and we sign NDAs before work starts.
Billing
Invoices in Chilean pesos (CLP) or US dollars. Typical senior rates are $25 to $49 (USD) per hour, or a fixed price for a defined scope.
Where we help Chile businesses most
Chilean companies in fintech, mining, retail and logistics use us for platforms, operations software and AI automation, with interfaces in Spanish and English.
Copper and lithium mining
Mines adopt automation, remote operations and analytics. From internal tools to customer platforms, built and supported by one team.
Agriculture and fruit exports
Exporters need cold-chain tracking and traceability. We build the platforms, integrations and internal tools this sector relies on.

Data hosting
Google Cloud southamerica-west1 (Santiago), or AWS South America (Sao Paulo), in your own cloud account, so data stays where your rules require.
How it works
1. Free assessment
We review your code, dependencies, infrastructure and data, then give you a written migration plan, risks and a fixed quote.
2. Plan and safety net
We add automated tests and monitoring around what exists today, so every change can be checked against the old behaviour.
3. Migrate in small steps
Module by module, with both versions running side by side where needed. You see progress in a demo every week.
4. Cut over and support
A planned switch-over with a rollback path, then the same engineers stay on to fix, tune and keep it current.
