01

Why a Bitrix website needs technical support

Bitrix receives regular platform and module updates that fix bugs and close vulnerabilities. The website needs to be updated, monitored and developed for your business needs, but you do not have to keep an in-house Bitrix developer for this. You can outsource technical support: under a contract, we carry out scheduled maintenance and your website tasks.

02

When you need Bitrix support

Technical support makes sense if:

  • the website has not been updated for several years
  • your previous contractor stopped responding or you have decided to replace them
  • integrations with external services fail or return errors
  • the website loads slowly
  • the website needs to grow: new sections and new features

A small website without complex functionality and integrations often does not need the capabilities of Bitrix. In this case, we will suggest a migration from Bitrix to WordPress.

03

What Bitrix support includes

We set out scheduled Bitrix technical support work in the maintenance schedule. The main tasks are:

01

Platform and module updates

We install platform and module updates on a staging copy of the website first and move them to the live website after testing.

02

Fixing errors after updates

If errors appear on the website after an update, we find the cause, fix it on the copy and move the fix to the live website.

03

Security and malware checks

We check the website for malicious code according to the maintenance schedule and carry out work to improve its security.

04

Website and domain monitoring

We monitor website availability and the domain registration expiry date to spot problems in time.

05

Integrations

We support website integrations with external services and fix data exchange errors.

06

Technical SEO

We fix technical errors that make the website harder for search engines to index.

04

What exactly we do

01

Bitrix custom development

As part of technical support, a Bitrix developer fixes bugs and adds sections and new features. When the standard capabilities of Bitrix are not enough, we develop our own components and modules. We make custom changes without modifying the platform core, so updates do not overwrite them. We test each change on a staging copy of the website first and move it to the live website after testing. We quote the cost of custom development before work begins.

02

Bitrix speed optimization

First, we find what slows the website down, then we fix the cause. We show the result with speed measurements before and after the work. If we administer the website's server, we configure it for Bitrix requirements and the website load.

03

Backups and recovery

We back up the website regularly and store the copies separately from the server. If the website stops working after a failure or a faulty edit, we restore it from the last working copy.

05

Bitrix website support cost

Technical support is paid under a support plan with a fixed number of included hours per month, and we then send a report on the work completed. Individual tasks can be paid for based on a preliminary estimate. We calculate the cost of Bitrix website maintenance after an audit.

Why RIVERIT

01

Experience since 2015

Since 2015, Bitrix has been one of the two main platforms RIVERIT builds websites on. We know the typical problems and strengths of Bitrix from hands-on work.

02

Security expertise

We have restored more than 150 websites after hacking. We investigate incidents, remove malicious code and fix the vulnerabilities we find.

03

Response within one hour

We respond to support clients within one hour during business hours. We take critical failures first, including outside business hours if your plan includes this.

04

Comprehensive support

We support not only your Bitrix website but also self-hosted Bitrix24, servers, mobile apps and chatbots. One RIVERIT team coordinates work across several areas: if we administer the website's server, we fix the problem both in the website code and on the server.

05

Transparent process

We assign a manager to your project. You can track tasks and their status in the RIVERIT project management system. We send reports on completed work once a week or once a month.

06

Long-term partnership

On average, clients work with us for 6 years. The access credentials, documentation and project backups stay with you.

Bitrix support FAQ

01What does Bitrix technical support include?

Platform and module updates, backups, website and domain monitoring, work to improve website security and speed, integrations with external services, technical SEO and bug fixing. Custom development is done within the plan hours or based on a separate estimate. We set out the scope of work in the maintenance schedule.

02My Bitrix website has not been updated for several years. Will you take it on?

Yes, after an audit. We update a copy of the website in stages and test it after each step. We move the changes to the live website only when the copy works without errors.

03Can Bitrix be sped up without rebuilding the website?

Often, yes: we find what slows the website down and fix the cause. We show the result with speed measurements before and after.

04Do you only support websites you built yourselves?

No, we also take over websites built by other contractors: first, we carry out a technical audit and suggest a work plan.

Bitrix website security

Built-in tools and our own solutions

Bitrix has a built-in Proactive Protection module: it filters suspicious requests to the website and checks it for malicious code. We use it together with our own RIVERIT solutions, which cover what the built-in module lacks.

Tools alone are not enough: security depends on regular work. Every month, we install platform and module updates that close known vulnerabilities, regularly check the website for malicious code and store backups separately from the server so that the website can be restored after a failure.

If the website has been hacked

A hack usually shows itself through visible signs: for example, unfamiliar links or pages appear on the website, visitors are redirected to other websites and the browser or search engine shows a danger warning.

In this case, updates will not help: the malicious code stays on the website, and the attacker can come back through the same vulnerability. The website needs to be cleaned, and the vulnerability used in the hack must be found and closed. Then the website must be checked for hidden ways back in for attackers. We do this work as part of the “hacked website recovery” service, which you can order even without a support plan. After recovery, you can hand the website over to us for support to reduce the risk of another hack.
