Moving your servers alongside the rest of the office adds complexity but saves cost. Cloudswitched ensures your servers are migrated safely as part of your wider office relocation.
Full backups are verified before any server is powered down, and data integrity is confirmed after reinstallation at the new premises.
Server migration is sequenced alongside workstation and network moves to minimise the total downtime window for your business.
Our engineers understand RAID configurations, virtualisation clusters and application dependencies — not just how to carry heavy boxes.
When your business relocates, your servers need to come with you — and they demand more care than any other piece of IT equipment. Servers house your critical data, run your business applications and underpin your entire network. A botched server migration can mean lost files, corrupted databases and days of downtime. Cloudswitched integrates server migration into the broader office move project, ensuring that every server is properly backed up, safely transported and fully tested at the new premises before anyone relies on it. We handle the shutdown sequence, anti-static packaging, insured transport, rack installation and bring-up testing as a coordinated part of your overall relocation.
We do not trust that backups are working — we verify them. Before any server is powered down, we confirm that a full, restorable backup exists and has been tested.
Domain controllers before member servers. Storage before applications. We migrate in an order that respects technical dependencies and minimises recovery time.
Every server is tested against a defined checklist: network connectivity, storage integrity, application functionality and user access are all verified before handover.
It depends on your workloads. A move is a great opportunity to consider cloud migration, and we can advise on which servers are good candidates. However, some workloads are better kept on-premise for performance or compliance reasons.
We move the physical host and all its virtual machines together. We verify the hypervisor, virtual switches and storage pools are intact after the move before starting the VMs.
Our engineers troubleshoot on-site. In the worst case, we restore from the verified pre-move backup to replacement hardware. This is why backup verification is a non-negotiable step in our process.
Yes. We handle intra-site server moves as well, which are common during office refurbishments or when consolidating server rooms.
Yes. We offer a two-week snagging period after every migration, and many clients choose to continue with our managed IT support service for ongoing server monitoring and maintenance.
