Why Hospitality Businesses Choose Tunbridge Wells

The appeal of Tunbridge Wells for Hospitality firms lies in its business-friendly environment and strategic location. Transport connections are a key factor: Approximately 55 minutes by Southeastern Railway from London Charing Cross or London Bridge, then to Bank. Hospitality businesses value the town's professional environment and access to a skilled local workforce.

The Hospitality sector forms part of this economic landscape, with steady requirements for professional IT services and technology solutions to support business growth.

What is hybrid cloud backup?

The best of both worlds

Hybrid cloud backup combines local backup — stored on a device in your office — with offsite cloud backup stored in a secure, geographically separate data centre. This dual approach gives you the speed of local restores for day-to-day recovery needs and the security of offsite cloud storage for disaster recovery scenarios such as fire, flood, ransomware or theft.

Unlike cloud-only backup, which depends entirely on your internet connection for both backups and restores, a hybrid approach means you can restore large volumes of data quickly from the local device while still having a secure offsite copy for worst-case scenarios. It's the gold standard for business data protection and business continuity planning for your hospitality business.

Who needs a managed backup service?

Any business that relies on digital data — which is virtually every hospitality business today — needs a reliable, tested backup solution. However, simply having backup software installed is not enough. Backups fail silently, retention policies drift, storage fills up and restore procedures go untested until the moment you need them most.

A managed hybrid cloud backup service means our engineers monitor your backups daily, resolve failures proactively, test restores regularly and ensure your data protection meets compliance requirements such as GDPR, Cyber Essentials and ISO 27001. You get peace of mind knowing your backups are not just running — they're working.

How our hybrid cloud backup service works

1

Backup Assessment

We audit your current data, systems and backup setup to identify what needs protecting, how much storage is required and the optimal backup schedule. We assess your RPO (Recovery Point Objective) and RTO (Recovery Time Objective) requirements to design the right solution for your hospitality business.

2

Installation & Configuration

We deploy and configure the backup agent on your servers and workstations, set up the local backup device, configure encryption keys, define retention policies and schedule automated backups. Cloud replication is configured to our UK-based data centre for offsite protection.

3

Automated Backup & Monitoring

Once live, backups run automatically on schedule. Our team monitors every backup job daily — checking for failures, warnings, capacity issues and performance. Any issues are resolved proactively before they become a problem, with daily notifications keeping you informed.

4

Restore Testing & Ongoing Management

We perform regular test restores to verify your backups are recoverable. Our managed service includes ongoing capacity management, retention policy adjustments, software updates and support for any restore requests — from a single file to a full server recovery.

Our Cloud Backup for Hospitality

PMS Data Backup

Automated protection of Opera, Mews, Guestline, and other property management data including guest records, reservations, and rate configurations.

Guest Data Security

GDPR-compliant encrypted backup of guest personal information, passport copies, payment details, and loyalty programme records.

Hybrid Protection

From local on-site backup appliances to encrypted cloud replication, we cover every layer of data protection — ensuring your hospitality business can recover from any scenario, whether it's accidental deletion or a full site disaster.

Ready to protect your hospitality business with hybrid cloud backup?

Hospitality businesses turn to us when

Their current IT provider does not understand hospitality systems, PMS platforms, or the urgency of issues during guest-facing hours
Guest Wi-Fi complaints are generating negative reviews and affecting their online reputation
Their property management system (Opera, Mews, Guestline) keeps experiencing issues during peak check-in and check-out periods
They are opening a new property and need a complete IT fit-out coordinated with their refurbishment contractors
Payment terminals across front desk, restaurant, bar, and events are not PCI DSS compliant
They manage multiple London properties and need consistent IT standards and centralised support across all locations
Their current setup has no disaster recovery plan and a system failure during a fully booked weekend would be catastrophic
They need to integrate booking engines, channel managers, and OTA platforms but lack the technical expertise
They want to adopt guest experience technologies — mobile check-in, digital keys, smart room controls — but need guidance on where to start

Our approach

A proven four-stage process that takes you from vulnerable to fully protected with hybrid cloud backup.

1

Discovery & Assessment

We audit your current backup infrastructure, data volumes, retention requirements and recovery objectives. We identify critical systems, compliance obligations and single points of failure that put your business at risk.

2

Design & Configuration

We design a hybrid backup architecture combining on-site appliances with secure cloud storage. Encryption policies, scheduling, retention rules and disaster recovery runbooks are configured to meet your RPO and RTO targets.

3

Deploy & Verify

We deploy backup agents across your servers and workstations, run initial full backups and perform test restores to validate every recovery path. Nothing goes live until we've proven it works end to end.

4

Monitor & Maintain

Daily monitoring of every backup job, proactive alerting on failures, regular test restores and quarterly reviews ensure your protection stays current as your data and infrastructure evolve.

Cloud Backup for Hospitality

What's included in our Cloud Backup service

01

Backup Assessment

A comprehensive review of your current backup infrastructure — or a full risk assessment if you have no formal backup in place. We examine data volumes, server and workstation counts, retention requirements, RPO and RTO targets, compliance obligations and existing disaster recovery provisions. We identify every critical system, application and dataset that needs protecting, map dependencies between them and document single points of failure. This assessment forms the blueprint for your entire hybrid backup and disaster recovery strategy.

02

Hybrid Architecture Design

Based on the assessment, we design a hybrid backup architecture tailored to your business. This includes selecting the right on-site backup appliance, configuring cloud replication targets, defining encryption policies, setting backup schedules and establishing retention rules that balance compliance requirements with storage costs. We also design your disaster recovery runbooks — step-by-step procedures for recovering individual files, entire servers or your complete environment. Every scenario is documented so recovery is fast, predictable and stress-free when it matters most.

03

Agent Deployment

We deploy lightweight backup agents across your servers, workstations and virtual machines. Each agent is configured with the correct backup schedule, retention policy and encryption settings. Initial full backups are run and verified, with subsequent incremental backups capturing only changed data to minimise bandwidth and storage usage. For virtual environments, we configure image-level backups that capture entire VMs — enabling rapid bare-metal recovery and instant virtualisation in disaster scenarios. Physical servers receive both system-state and file-level backup coverage for maximum flexibility.

04

Cloud Replication

Every local backup is automatically replicated to our secure UK-based cloud storage. Data is encrypted with AES-256 before leaving your premises, transferred over TLS-encrypted connections and stored in geographically redundant data centres. Your encryption keys remain exclusively under your control. Our True Delta deep deduplication technology ensures only genuinely new data is transferred across your network — dramatically reducing bandwidth consumption and making hybrid backup viable even on slower internet connections. Cloud storage scales automatically as your data grows.

05

Monitoring & Alerting

Every backup job across your entire environment is monitored 24/7 from our operations centre. Successful jobs are logged, failed jobs trigger immediate alerts, and our engineers investigate and resolve issues proactively — often before your team even knows there was a problem. You receive daily backup summary reports via email and have full access to our customer portal for real-time visibility into job status, storage usage and recovery point history. Nothing is left to chance — if a backup fails, we know about it and we fix it.

06

Test Restores

A backup that has never been tested is a backup you cannot trust. We perform regular test restores — recovering individual files, application databases and full system images — to verify that every recovery path works exactly as designed. Quarterly disaster recovery drills simulate real failure scenarios, documenting recovery times and validating that your RPO and RTO targets can actually be met. Test results are reported to you with full transparency, and any issues discovered are remediated immediately.

07

Disaster Recovery Planning

Beyond backups, we help you build a complete disaster recovery plan covering every plausible scenario — hardware failure, ransomware attack, fire, flood, accidental deletion and provider outage. Each scenario has a documented recovery procedure with clear ownership, escalation paths and communication plans. For businesses requiring near-zero downtime, we offer instant virtualisation — spinning up failed servers as virtual machines directly from backup images in the cloud, keeping your business running while physical infrastructure is repaired or replaced.

08

Quarterly Reviews

Your backup needs evolve as your business grows. Quarterly reviews assess changes in data volume, new servers or applications, updated compliance requirements and shifts in your risk profile — ensuring your backup strategy stays aligned with your actual environment. We also review backup performance metrics, storage utilisation trends, recovery test results and any incidents from the preceding quarter. Recommendations for improvements, capacity upgrades or policy changes are documented and discussed, keeping your protection continuously optimised.

Why Cloudswitched for Cloud Backup?

Hybrid by design

On-site backup appliances for instant local recovery combined with encrypted cloud replication for offsite disaster protection. Two copies, two locations, zero single points of failure.

IT company, not just a reseller

We understand servers, networks and virtualisation at a deep technical level. Our backup solutions are designed by engineers who manage the infrastructure they protect — not salespeople reading a script.

15-minute recovery objective

Our hybrid architecture enables rapid recovery from local appliances. Critical systems can be restored in minutes, not hours — minimising downtime and keeping your business operational.

End-to-end encryption

AES-256 encryption at rest and in transit. Your data is encrypted before it leaves your premises and stays encrypted in the cloud. We never hold your encryption keys — only you can access your data.

Daily monitoring and alerting

Every backup job is monitored around the clock. If a job fails, we know before you do — and we fix it proactively. No more discovering your backups haven't run for weeks when disaster strikes.

Fixed monthly pricing

Transparent, predictable costs with no hidden fees for restores, support calls or emergency recoveries. You know exactly what you're paying every month — and what you're getting for it.

Named account manager

No ticket queues or call centres. You get a dedicated account manager who knows your infrastructure, your backup schedule and your recovery priorities — available by phone, email or video call.

Regular test restores

We don't just back up your data — we regularly test that it can be restored. Quarterly restore drills ensure your disaster recovery plan actually works, giving you genuine confidence in your protection.

Customer portal access

Full visibility into your backup environment through a dedicated customer portal. Monitor job status, storage usage, retention policies and recovery history — anytime, from anywhere.
