Cloud Computing / Hosted Server for SMBs
A Hosted Server or Cloud Computing is a means of providing all the usual server based resources which negates the need for any in-house server equipment. For SMBs, Cloud Computing offers a wealth of benefits-
-
The upfront cost of a server is avoided so if your server is due for replacement, or you are a start up, a hosted server reduces your capital expenditure.
-
Because users access the sever via a remote connection to the hosted server, this remote access can be extended to home workers, geographically dispersed users and to any travelling users - all that is required is a PC with a internet connection.
-
The Hosted Server is chargeable on a monthly basis and as you do not have to consider large IT infrastructure costs down the road, planning and budgeting IT expenditure is aided.
-
On-going IT Support costs will be reduced as the frequency of IT issues will be greatly reduced due to the absence of an in-house server.
-
Should your office be inaccessible, destroyed or subject to a disaster of any nature, server resources are immediately available from any online PC.
We provide Citrix access to the hosted server which hosts all the usual MS Office applications and generally can accommodate most other software applications too.
The Hosted Server service lets you take your server with you – wherever you are.
