Collaborative Benefits of Microsoft Exchange
With a centralized server based email and calendar
solution like Exchange Server you can take advantage of
the same features larger corporations rely on. All
of your user's emails are stored in mailboxes on the
server so your valuable messages are not lost when a
desktop pc crashes. Calendars can be shared
amongst users and managers can allow access to their
appointments by admin assistants. Meeting requests
can be sent out after verifying availability first.
When a meeting request is accepted, it is automatically
added to the user's calendar. With
Outlook Web Access, your
emails can be accessed remotely from anywhere in the
world with an internet connection. Public folders
for contacts and calendar items can be maintained so
that everyone can share information and reduce the need
for redundant entry.
Fax Server Capabilities
Faxing and to individuals or distribution groups
established on your server let you communicate with
customers with greater efficiency. Inbound faxes
come into an e-mail box as an image file that can be
saved to a customer/client directory on your server or
routed to several recipients. Junk faxes can be deleted
without ever wasting paper or ink resources. With
outbound faxes – if you would ordinarily print and then
fax a document, you’ll be able to save a step and fax
the document directly. Page counts and sender
information automatically appear on the company cover
page we set up for you.
SQL Server
SBS 2003 R2 Pemium comes with a fully licensed version
of
Microsoft SQL 2005 database platform. This
means you now have a powerful tool to create/host your
own customized tracking application or run any
off-the-shelf product that uses SQL server as the
database. No matter what type of business you
have, you will find many existing applications use
Microsoft SQL Server as the database of choice.
Proficio Technologies is also qualified to design and
build any tracking system to suit your unique situation.
PDA -
Data On The Go
Having your own Exchange server opens up many
possibilities. Most managers find themselves on
the road but still wanting to stay in touch with their
business operations. With Microsoft Wireless
Active Sync running on a Windows Mobile platform cell
phone, you can seamlessly synchronize your calendar,
email, contacts, and tasks instantaneously. Pocket
versions of MS Word and MS Excel will allow you to view
and edit attachments without being in the office or near
a computer.
Data Centralization
Your data is the life blood of your organization. Why
have it scattered across desktops and laptops that make
it difficult to share and protect? Placing the
data on a server will allow you to organize it and
secure it properly. Security groups can be created
and access can be granted to just the employees who you
want to allow.
Remote
Access
SBS gives you several methods for accessing your network
and data from any remote location with a connection to
the internet. Remote Web
Workplace (RWW) allows you to login securely to
your network and either check your mail through
Outlook Web Access (OWA) or
take control of any of your Windows XP Professional
desktops and run applications as if you were sitting at
your desk. Secure Virtual Private Networking (VPN)
can be enabled allowing you to share files between
satellite facilities and your main office. All
data transferred between locations is automatically
encrypted.
Backup
Strategy
Although most small companies readily admit that they
would be lost without the information they rely on for
day to day operations, few actually have a viable
recovery strategy in place. This is especially
difficult if your data is distributed across multiple
PCs and laptops. We will help you identify your
backup requirements and implement a solution that would
allow you to get up and running quickly in the event of
a problem.
Hard Drive Technology
Did you know that most name brand disk drive
manufacturers only warranty their desktop and notebook
hard drives for 1 year now? If they have so little
confidence in these mechanical devices, then why should
you? The servers we build and recommend are
configured using Disk Mirroring technology on drives
that come with 5 year warranties rated for 1.2 million
hours (13+years) mean time between failures (mtbf).
Disk mirroring is a server storage technology that
always maintains an exact replica of your server data on
another physical hard disk. In the unlikely event
of a hard drive failure on your server, the second drive
will allow you to maintain your configuration and all of
your valuable company data.
