One of the biggest misconceptions many small business owners have is that servers are for medium to large businesses and simply, there isn’t a need for it. On the contrary servers are highly recommended for any business who has at least 5 computer systems in a single office. Here are a few questions commonly asked about servers. |

How is a server different from a desktop?
The answer to this key question is more straightforward than you might imagine. A server is a system specifically designed to hold, manage, send, and process data. The technology behind servers:
Makes them more reliable than desktop systems.
Helps them process data faster and more efficiently.
Can be configured to support data backup and security.
Reduces data bottlenecks so data can flow freely and quickly.
In short, a server is much more than a supercharged desktop system, and can't be replaced by one. Desktop systems are optimized to run user-friendly operating systems, desktop applications, and facilitate other "desktop" tasks. Even if a desktop sports the same processor speed, memory, and hard disk space as a server, they aren't the same because the technologies behind them are engineered for different usage. |
Do i need a Server?
Server technology and benefits notwithstanding, you don't want to make technology purchases that won't benefit your bottom line, facilitate key business processes, or otherwise make your life easier. While there is no single litmus test that you can use to determine if you need a server, some general guidelines do apply.
File and print server
Microsoft Exchange system or other e-mail server
Firewall or other security system
website or company intranet
Database
ERP or CRM solution
E-commerce solution
If your office only has three or four staff members who share files across networked computers, surf the Web, or send e-mail, you may not need a server at all. However, once you have five or more employees working together on a network, a server can provide a central location for your important files, shared applications, and other resources you regularly use, like project documents and even an image library. In addition, if you want to implement any of the following systems or applications you'll need a server:
And these are just the tip of the iceberg. In general, if you need to put a computer system in place that processes, shares, or otherwise manages data, you'll need a server. |
