How to Recover from a Data Breach: Step by Step

Email Migration Services in the UK for Shipping & Maritime
Zero-downtime email migration engineered for UK shipping and maritime companies.
Zero Downtime
Your team continues sending and receiving email throughout the entire migration — no interruptions, no lost messages.
Complete Data Transfer
Every email, contact, calendar entry, and archive is migrated accurately. Nothing is left behind or lost in the process.
Expert Project Management
A dedicated migration engineer plans, executes, and validates your migration with clear communication at every stage.
Migrating email is one of the most disruptive IT projects a shipping company can face. If done poorly, operations and logistics teams lose access to critical messages, clients emails bounce, and calendar appointments vanish — bringing vessel coordination and cargo tracking to a halt.
Cloudswitched delivers zero-downtime email migration for UK shipping and maritime companies, transferring every email, contact, calendar entry, and attachment to your new platform with full data integrity and minimal disruption to your operations and logistics teams.
How it works for Maritime businesses
A clear, structured process from consultation to ongoing support.
1
Pre-Migration Assessment
We audit your current email environment — mailbox sizes, distribution lists, shared mailboxes, rules, and integrations — to identify every element that needs migrating and plan for potential complications.
2
Staged Migration
Data is pre-synchronised in the background before the cutover, meaning the final switch happens in minutes rather than hours. Users experience no perceptible downtime.
3
Post-Migration Validation
After cutover, we verify every mailbox, check calendar sharing, test mail flow, and confirm client connectivity. We remain on hand for two weeks to resolve any post-migration queries.
