Maintaining your own servers can be costly, be time-consuming, and increase the risk of data breaches or data loss. Servers are expensive pieces of equipment. They also require specialized IT knowledge. While your internal IT department may have the skills to manage these servers, there are certain risks associated with internal server management. The more efficient solution is to hire managed IT services for expert servers installation and configuration. After installing and configuring your servers, we can continue to manage your servers to help reduce operating costs and free up internal resources.
Managing Your Own Servers Is Costly
The primary drawback to managing your own servers is the cost. Purchasing a new server can cost thousands of dollars. Depending on the amount of data that you need to store, you may require multiple servers.
Along with the cost of managing these servers, there is the additional cost of labor. A growing business may need to hire additional IT staff simply to manage the installation and configuration of the extra server.
Managed Internet services setup, including server installation, is more cost-effective. Outsourcing your server requirements saves money that can be used to help fund your expanding business.
You also have predictable costs as you pay a set price for the installation, configuration, and management of your servers.
Managed Server Installation Saves Time
Your IT department likely has a lot of responsibilities. Besides addressing hardware and software issues on your employee workstations, they may need to install and deploy new software, set up video conferencing, and handle other minor IT tasks.
With managed servers installation and configuration solutions, your IT team is free to focus on their primary responsibilities. Their attention is not divided among as many tasks, allowing them to do their jobs properly.
At the same time, our skilled IT technicians have the education and experience to provide enhanced security. They stay updated on the latest threats to server security and handle virus scans, firewall configuration, and Internet services setup.
Protect Your Business Against Data Loss
Along with providing enhanced security, managed server installation helps protect against data loss. We can perform regular backups and help establish a suitable backup and recovery plan. These backups allow you to quickly resume your business operations after experiencing a hardware failure.
When a server or hard drive fails, your staff may not have access to important software or client data. With regular backups, you gain peace of mind in knowing that your data is never truly lost.
