Reasons You Need A Server |
| |
| 1. |
|
Create
order from chaos. By centralizing data on a server, you can better
manage business-critical information. Sharing files and other data
across PCs becomes much easier, as does migrating data from one PC
to another. Older PCs can get new life if their files and data are
offloaded onto a server. Companies are buying servers and opting not
to dump their old PCs and laptops. |
|
|
| 2. |
|
Protect
your data by making backups easier. Users can centrally locate
all of their data on the Server which can be backed up on a regular
basis. |
|
|
| 3. |
|
Collaborate
better as a business. Sharing data is easier with a server-based
network. Some Network Operating Systems like Microsoft Windows 2003
include Windows SharePoint Services, which allows users to collaborate
via the web. A server is a must when trying to run multi-user on-line
applications such as Accounting, Distribution and Manufacturing applications. |
|
|
| 4. |
|
Accommodate
a mobile work force. Servers enable authorized out-of-office workers
to have remote access to your network, enabling data sharing among
those who travel, telecommute or work in off-site locations. Through
Remote Access, users can get access to server data via the Internet. |
|
|
| 5. |
|
Share
high-speed broadband access. Provide high-speed Internet access
across a network. If you are using three or more dial-up accounts,
it's time to get a server and go broadband. The return on investment
will come quickly in the form of higher productivity! |
| |
|
| 6. |
|
Set
up new computers, add users and deploy new applications more quickly
and easily. Expect to grow? By managing your data from a central
location, you can better coordinate the addition of new PCs, software
licenses and software applications. You can also better manage firewalls
and monitor threats to your data, and more easily deploy virus protection
and intrusion detection. |
| |
|
| 7. |
|
Get
more processing power. A server can supercharge your network,
storing large chunks of data, freeing up memory and enabling individual
PCs to perform better. Small business today need that additional processing
power to run Web services, manage Web sites, do e-mail newsletters,
and use more sophisticated tools and applications.

|
Look
more professional — and connect better with your customers.
Server software enables you to consolidate your e-mail accounts (AOL,
Yahoo!, Hotmail, etc.) into a single, company-hosted e-mail account,
enhancing your image to customers and partners. You could have several
aliases from one root e-mail address. A server can make a your business
appear as a large company. Get more bang for your buck and look more
professional to those with whom you wish to do business. |
