Case Study: Close Brothers achieves confident, visible data center failover with Cutover

Close Brothers completes data center failover with 200 people and 1,400 tasks using Cutover

Close Brothers, a merchant banking group, faced the challenge of managing a complex data center failover process using a manual, error-prone spreadsheet. This method required four people to update a 200-line document, causing delays and a lack of visibility. They sought a better solution from Cutover to automate the process and gain control.

Using Cutover's runbook platform, the team automated task execution and stakeholder communications for their failover. This allowed 200 people to execute 1,400 tasks with full visibility, retiring the spreadsheet. Cutover provided an automated audit trail and saved significant manual effort, giving the team confidence and enabling them to complete the failover successfully.
