network servers
A 'server' is a central computer that underpins your computer network. This offers many advantages, as it allows easy sharing of common resources such as files, calendars, etc, as well as offering security advantages (ie who has access to what) and simplifying backup strategies.
We have the expertise to add a new server to your business, migrate data and settings from an old server, or simply to manage your existing server on an ongoing basis. With experience of both Microsoft and UNIX/Linux servers, we are well positioned to support the majority of business needs and can outline the advantages of both.
However, servers tend to be heavily relied upon once installed, and are typically in operation 24 hours a day, managing all critical company data. If a server fails it can have disastrous consequences on a business, with users unable to access their files, email or the Internet.
If your business doesn't currently have a 'server' and you have more than two or three desktops (or laptops) it may be worth considering the benefits.
