Do You Need a Server?
Without a server, you would need to keep adding individual workstations onto your system, using traditional peer-to-peer networks. Communications would need to be protected between each computer, and resources would be harder to share within the company.
More importantly, you could be victim to system outages and other problems related to security. By the time you have invested in getting at least one server for your business, you realize how much technology helps your day-to-day transactions run smoothly. It only makes sense to make sure that you have the right level of server support.
Basic File and Application Sharing
This is the minimum you need to set up to start getting the benefits of your server. Once you know what kind of set up will benefit your company the most, you will need to manage permissions and groups to make sure the right people have access to information they need.
Every time something changes, you may need to make changes, adding people to groups and adding permissions if someone is promoted. Someone who is acting as an administrator within the system will need to know how to make the changes as needed.
Server Support in Calgary for Information and Data Security
Once you have your groups set up, your people will be able to succeed at reaching your goals more than ever. Your employees will have the ability to collaborate on all their work, from any location and using any device.
A study by Tech Pro Research deals with the issue that employees want to use the personal devices they’re more comfortable with. Instead of using company tech, many workers work best on the personal tech they use on a regular basis anyway. 59% of organizations surveyed were already allowing the practice in 2013.1
More than half of workers surveyed felt that they were more productive when they were allowed to use their own devices, and using their smartphones for many tasks could save time too.2 Without the right server support, this could be a disaster because of the problems with security and compatibility.

Personalized IT Disaster Recovery Plan
No one likes to think that there will ever be a real disaster. Happily, many of the events that could lead to a total loss of data in the past will no longer have the same impact. Even if a fire destroys the physical hardware owned by your company, you may be able to count on your disaster recovery plan to replace all the information you lost.
Your IT Disaster Recovery Plan should be developed alongside your business continuity plan. You should always plan in case there is any event which could cause your business to be closed for an extended time. This plan will include how to take care of your employees, how to keep essential functions supported and how to get back to business once the crisis is over.
The basics covered by your plan should include:
- An inventory of all your physical hardware and structures.
- The kinds of threats which could affect your business and the best way to react to them. For instance, what should you do if there are cyber attacks in your area?
- A business impact analysis, so you can look at how your business will be affected and what kind of resources you might lose.
- Who is in charge of what, and what role they might play in a disaster.
One of the essential roles played by Server Support in Calgary is helping you prepare for any kind of predictable, or unpredictable disaster that may come your way.
