SERVERS, BICESTER
Plenty of businesses still use specialist software that will not run in the Cloud. When that is the case, the sensible option is usually to set up a dedicated server so day-to-day operations carry on without a hitch.
Benefits of a business server in Bicester
When a company has several staff, file sharing soon becomes a necessity. Relying on an internal network can be awkward, as Windows updates often reset sharing settings, and files are only accessible if the host computer is switched on, even when that person is not in the office.
Installing a business server in Bicester removes these issues by keeping all documents in one central, secure place. It can also run daily backups across every computer in the business, so if one machine fails, your files are still protected and easy to reach.
There are two types of servers that you can choose from Cloud Servers and On Site Servers.
Cloud Servers
For many businesses, a cloud server is both practical and cost effective. There is no need to purchase expensive equipment, and because everything is hosted online, files and databases can be accessed securely from any location.
There are several types of cloud servers designed for business use, and we can help you choose the option that best fits your organisation’s needs and existing IT setup.
A further benefit is the absence of maintenance costs. Since you do not own the physical hardware or software, you only pay for the resources and services you actually use.
Cloud servers also offer a secure way to store business data. However, as with any system, incorrect configuration can leave gaps. That is why we always recommend professional setup to ensure your data is properly protected.

On Site Servers in Bicester
Although cloud servers are a popular choice for many organisations, there are situations where they may not offer the precise functionality your business needs. In these cases, an on-site server can be the better option.
An on-site server looks similar to a desktop computer, but it is equipped with a far more powerful processor, allowing it to run at higher speeds than a standard PC or laptop. A wide range of software can also be installed to meet specific business requirements.
Some industries rely on specialist software that cannot be hosted in the cloud but must still be accessed by multiple users. By installing this software on a server, you enable shared access, often lowering licensing costs as only one central licence is required. In addition, some applications demand the dedicated processing power of a server to function effectively.
Unlike setting up a standard computer, choosing and configuring the right server for your business is more complex. Careful planning is essential to ensure it supports both your current and future needs.
If you are looking for an on site server for your business, please call us on 01327 300311 or complete our contact form. We will work with you to understand your business needs and recommend the best solution for you.
Maintaining your On Site Server
Just like any other computer, a server requires regular upkeep to ensure it continues to run smoothly. Because a business server holds critical company data, it is essential to monitor its performance closely and resolve any issues as soon as they appear.
At Keba Computer Services, we install a Remote Monitoring and Management System (RMM) for servers in Bicester. This system alerts us straight away if a problem occurs, allowing us to investigate and take swift action. In many cases, we can detect and resolve faults before our clients are even aware that anything is wrong.
The benefit of a RMM is it reduces downtime and ensures that all data is backed up to the server. We also offer pay as you go repairs to your server.
