Website Migration & OnboardingHosting & Support
Moving your website from one provider to another can seem daunting but we've successfully migrated and onboarded a number of websites, large and small, and follow a tried-and-tested process.
During a website migration and onboarding project there are a number of steps that we will work with you to complete.
The “onboarding” covers the time for us to review and get up to speed with the architecture and structure of your website along with making whatever changes are required in order for the website to run on our load-balanced hosting infrastructure.
Typically, this involves moving any CMS uploads to shared/cloud storage and serving them via a content delivery network (CDN) and installing and configuring a caching plugin, all of which will provide a boost in the download speed of your website, which benefits the user experience.
Additionally, we will update the underlying CMS and any plugins the website contains, we would also issue an SSL certificate and serve the website securely over HTTPS.
The “migration” then covers the seamless transfer of your website visitors from your current hosting infrastructure over to ours at a convenient time when the site is at its quietest.

At Boisdale, our website plays an important role in the day-to-day running of the business, so having the right people looking after it is essential. Enovate have been managing our website hosting and technical support for several years, having originally taken over from our previous provider. Since then, they have given us the confidence that everything is being properly managed behind the scenes, allowing us to concentrate on running the business.
What we particularly value is their practical approach. They understand that in hospitality, things often need to happen quickly, and they are always approachable, responsive and willing to find a solution and make useful thought out recommendations. It's been a very positive working relationship, and one we hope will continue for many years to come.
