Business Networks

Networking - for your business

Small to Medium sized Business Servers

Computer Support (Nottingham) Ltd - PC Doctor can offer a Business Server to meet your needs.  The Servers are based on Intel Pentium processors.

New Servers have the software pre-installed, configured and tested at our workshop. We normally test for 5 to 10 days before the server is installed.  At this point we can also install any other software applications that you may have.

Our servers are based on Duel or single Intel e.g. Xeon or AMD processors

The server has built in redundancy, the hard drives are mirrored, or RAID should one fail you can keep working. The failed drive is replaced and the array rebuilds its self keeping down time to a minimum. Dual power supplies or the addition of uninterruptible power supply. Should you have a power cut the ups will kick in giving you an audible warning will also keeping the server running for an amount of time allowing for data to be saved before you shut down the server safely.

 

Operating system:  Microsoft Small Business Server 2003 Standard or Premium Editions

(5 User Licence).   Microsoft Extra licences are available in packs of 5 if required. Other versions are available..

Antivirus:  Server based protection which is continually updating and protects server and client computers on the network - if you use MS Exchange add on or different version may be required.

Backups can be done on various media storage types.  These include:

CD

DVD - using 2  external Hard drives

Seagate Travan tape drive using daily cassette tapes

external "Network Attached Storage" (NAS) system.

The system you chose depends on the amount of data your company creates.

Network upgrades: from 100base to 1000gb. this will speed up network performance

Network attached Storage (NAS) There are many reasons for having simple, cost effective central storage. Loss of critical data can bring a company to a standstill. If your computer fails it’s no problem because your data and working files are safe on the NAS. All you need to do is use one of the other computers on the network and access the NAS and your working again.  An office-based NAS can be quickly installed allowing use as a document library, print server, backup device, ‘shared’ drive etc. You can set individual User Accounts with passwords, so that users data and backups are kept secure, you can create groups with access rights, The device can be added to an existing server based network giving greater capacity for data storage. 

On-site Installation:  This will be carried out by one of our Microsoft Certified engineer and will usually consist of:

New Company Network - Installation of all cabling - hardware and software e.g. Server and Computer configuration, printers - Internet etc.  Training will also be given to users of the network.  Network security (User access)

Existing Networks - Installation will cover attaching the server to your existing network, the migration of existing company data and software from old to new server.  Configuring existing computers and printers to work with the new server and testing.  We are happy to install at a time to minimise disruption to your business, for example, at a weekend .

Your existing workstation/server will run in tandem until we are happy, then we will move over to the new server. We will do our best to maintain essential business services at all times.

Other Services include:

Remote server management:  This would allow Computer Support (Nottingham) Ltd to access the server from our workshop.  We can:

• Perform software updates
• Add remove users and alter permissions
• Monitor daily backups, anti virus and general performance of the server.
• If you have a problem on your network all you need to do is call us.

This can minimise down time and cost of engineer call out. This is only done with your permission and is a secure connection.

Disaster Recovery:  Computer Support (Nottingham) Ltd - PC Doctor backs up your Server on a regular basis, 6 monthly or quarterly.  This along with daily backups should ensure that, should it fail, your server can be back in service as quickly as possible.
