8x8 Migration · Bath

8x8 Migration in Bath

Moving a multi-site Bath organisation onto 8x8, one country at a time rather than all at once. Each market has its own incumbent provider, its own porting process and its own working hours, and a single global cutover means somebody is performing a critical switch at three in the morning in at least one of them.

Why this comes up

The problem

A single cutover weekend was planned for six countries, and two of the local ports slipped by a fortnight.

What you get

What we deliver

  • A sequence agreed by country, with the simplest market moved first
  • Local porting handled with each incumbent, since timescales are not comparable
  • Cutovers scheduled in local working hours with local support available
  • Interim dial plans so migrated and unmigrated sites can still reach each other
  • Lessons from each country applied to the next rather than discovered repeatedly
  • Legacy services cancelled per country once its port has genuinely completed

8x8 Migration in Bath — common questions

Why not move everywhere at once?
Because the risk multiplies and the support does not. Each market brings a different carrier, a different process and a different set of things that can go wrong, and a simultaneous cutover means every one of those problems arrives in the same weekend with the same team addressing them.
Which country should go first?
The one where a problem is most survivable — usually a smaller site with straightforward numbering and cooperative incumbent. It establishes the process, exposes the assumptions that were wrong, and does so somewhere the consequences are manageable.
How do half-migrated organisations keep working?
Through an interim dial plan. Internal calling between sites on different platforms needs deliberate routing during the transition, and organisations that overlook it find that head office can no longer dial an extension in a branch that moved last week.
When should the old services be cancelled?
After each port completes, per country, and not before. Cancelling in advance to save a month's charges risks losing numbers entirely, which is unrecoverable — so the sequence is always port, verify, then cancel, however tempting the saving looks.
Do you work with businesses across Somerset?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout South West, including Bath and the surrounding Somerset area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Bath businesses do you usually work with?
Visitor booking and ticketing for heritage operators, and brand work for independents competing on a very crowded high street. Beyond that we work across Tourism & Heritage, Higher Education, Professional Services, Retail and Software.
Do you cover the areas around Bath?
Yes — we work throughout South West, including Bristol, Salisbury, Gloucester. Bath is an urban area of roughly 95,000+, and we take on work across the wider Somerset region rather than the city boundary alone.
