The consultancies and vendors that actually do ColdFusion modernization work, and what each one specializes in. This is a general market overview, not a paid placement or an endorsement.
Open-source CFML runtime
Lucee is an open-source CFML engine, often adopted by ColdFusion shops looking to cut licensing costs while keeping the existing CFML codebase largely as-is.
Best for: Reducing licensing cost without rewriting existing CFML applications.
CFML consulting, tooling, and open-source ecosystem
Ortus Solutions builds widely used open-source CFML tooling (ColdBox, TestBox, CommandBox) alongside consulting services covering audits, risk assessment, and modernization strategy for existing ColdFusion and Lucee codebases.
Best for: Shops that want an assessment before committing to a rewrite, from a team embedded in the CFML open-source ecosystem itself.
ColdFusion modernization and managed support
A longstanding ColdFusion-focused consultancy offering modernization of existing codebases (updated frameworks, architecture, security posture) rather than defaulting to a rewrite in another language.
Best for: Reducing technical debt and security exposure in a CFML codebase you intend to keep.
Adobe ColdFusion Solution Partner
An Adobe ColdFusion Solution Partner since 1998, offering migration, security, and ongoing support services for legacy CF systems.
Best for: Shops that want a vendor with official Adobe partner status, not just general CFML familiarity.
