PHP upgrade and migration services in Israel
Senior engineers who move at startup speed, plug into your codebase and work most of your day.
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.
Israeli startups and tech companies most often hire us for AI and LLM products, SaaS platforms and extra senior engineering capacity alongside their own team.

Speed, depth and direct communication
Israeli teams move fast and expect engineers who can keep up: senior, hands-on and direct. We work as an extension of your team, not an agency layer.
Senior engineers only
People who have shipped this before and can pick up an existing codebase in days.
Your processes, your tools
Your Git flow, your sprint rhythm, your Slack, including Sunday-to-Thursday schedules when agreed.
Straight answers
Direct feedback on scope, risks and trade-offs, so decisions happen quickly.
AI and deep tech
LLM apps, agents, RAG and computer vision built for production, not demos.
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 Israeli teams
Time-zone overlap
Israel is only two and a half to three and a half hours behind India, so our working days overlap for most of the day. We can also align with a Sunday-to-Thursday week when your team works that way.
The Israeli Protection of Privacy Law and Data Security Regulations
We design products to the Protection of Privacy Law and the Privacy Protection (Data Security) Regulations: access controls, encryption, logging and data kept in the cloud region you choose. We sign NDAs and data agreements before work starts.
Billing
Invoices in Israeli new shekels (ILS) or US dollars. Typical senior rates are $25 to $49 (USD) per hour, or a fixed price for a defined scope.
Industries we work with in Israel
Israeli startups and tech companies are used to building fast and lean. We work as an extension of product teams, adding senior web, mobile and AI engineers who can pick up an existing codebase quickly, follow your engineering practices and ship every week.
Cybersecurity
Security startups need polished SaaS dashboards and fast releases. We build the platforms, integrations and internal tools this sector relies on.
Fintech
Payments and insurtech firms build global-first products. Custom software that fits how these teams already work.
Healthtech
Digital health firms combine medical data with AI. From internal tools to customer platforms, built and supported by one team.
Agritech and water tech
Irrigation and water innovators sell IoT platforms abroad. We build the platforms, integrations and internal tools this sector relies on.

What we set up for Israel
Local payments
Languages
Data hosting
AWS Israel (Tel Aviv) and Google Cloud me-west1 (Tel Aviv), 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.
