How to Run an Effective IT Steering Committee
15 Mar, 2026
Zero-downtime internet resilience for real estate operations that cannot afford to go offline.
Failover activates in seconds without manual intervention — your team continues working without even noticing the switch.
We use a different carrier and technology for your backup connection, eliminating single points of failure entirely.
Both primary and failover circuits are monitored 24/7, so we know the moment either one has an issue.
Cloudswitched deploys automatic failover internet solutions for UK real estate that detect primary line failures and automatically switch traffic to a backup connection within seconds. Your estate agents and negotiators continue working, Reapit, Rightmove feeds, and Zoopla integrations stay online, and your clients never notice a thing.
A clear, structured process from consultation to ongoing support.
We ensure your primary and backup connections use different carriers, different technologies, and where possible different physical routes into your building to eliminate common failure points.
Our equipment does not just check if a cable is connected — it actively tests internet reachability and application availability, triggering failover only when genuine connectivity loss occurs.
When the primary circuit recovers, traffic is automatically returned to it without disruption. We verify stability before completing the failback to avoid flapping.
When your primary connection drops, traffic instantly reroutes to the backup line. Your estate agents and negotiators continue using Reapit, Rightmove feeds, and Zoopla integrations without interruption, avoiding the productivity and revenue losses of manual intervention.
We deploy backup connections on physically separate infrastructure — different exchanges, different carriers, or 4G/5G wireless — ensuring a single point of failure cannot take your branches and offices offline.
Critical real estate operations like Reapit, Rightmove feeds, and Zoopla integrations remain accessible regardless of primary line status, protecting your RICS and Estate Agent Act requirements obligations and client service commitments.
24/7 monitoring detects degradation before failure occurs. If your primary line shows signs of trouble, we alert your estate agents and negotiators and prepare the failover path before any service impact.

Multiple backup technologies: 4G/5G, secondary fibre, bonded lines, and satellite
Understanding of uptime requirements for Reapit, Rightmove feeds, and Zoopla integrations and real estate workflows
Sub-second failover with no manual intervention required by your estate agents and negotiators
Free resilience audit identifying single points of failure in your current setup
Transparent monthly pricing with no excess usage charges on backup connections

A failover internet connection continuously monitors your primary line. When it detects a failure or significant degradation, it automatically routes all traffic through a secondary connection. Your estate agents and negotiators continue accessing Reapit, Rightmove feeds, and Zoopla integrations without needing to do anything.
Cloudswitched offers 4G/5G wireless, secondary fibre from a different provider, bonded broadband, and even satellite failover. We recommend the best option based on your branches and offices location, budget, and the criticality of your real estate operations.
Failover solutions for real estate start from £30 per month for 4G backup to £150+ per month for a fully diverse secondary fibre connection. The cost is minimal compared to the revenue lost during an outage affecting your Reapit, Rightmove feeds, and Zoopla integrations.
Our failover solutions typically switch traffic in under 5 seconds. For real estate running Reapit, Rightmove feeds, and Zoopla integrations, this means sessions remain active and transactions in progress are not lost.
Yes. We configure failover connections to support your critical real estate applications including Reapit, Rightmove feeds, and Zoopla integrations. While the backup line may offer lower bandwidth than your primary, it is sized to keep essential operations running until the primary is restored.
