SERVERS, NORTHAMPTON
Some organisations still depend on specialist software that isn’t designed for Cloud use. When that’s the case, the business typically needs to invest in its own dedicated server to ensure operations continue without disruption.
Benefits of a business server in Northampton
When a business has several employees, file sharing quickly becomes a necessity. Although an internal network can be used to exchange documents, it often introduces unnecessary complications. Windows updates may alter sharing permissions, and files are only available when the host computer is powered on even if that employee isn’t at work.
Installing a business server in Northampton eliminates these issues by keeping all your documents in one secure, centralised location. It can also perform daily backups of every computer in the company, ensuring that if one system fails, your data remains protected and easy to retrieve.
There are two types of servers that you can choose from Cloud Servers and On Site Servers.
Cloud Servers
For many organisations, a cloud server is the most efficient and cost-effective choice. There’s no need to buy expensive hardware, and because everything is hosted online, your files and databases can be accessed safely from anywhere.
There are several types of cloud servers designed for business use, and we can help you choose the one that best fits your organisation’s requirements and existing IT setup.
Another key benefit is the absence of maintenance costs. As you don’t own the physical infrastructure or software, you simply pay for the resources and services you use.
Cloud servers also offer a highly secure environment for business data storage. However, as with any system, incorrect configuration can introduce vulnerabilities. That’s why we always recommend that a qualified IT professional manages the setup to ensure your system remains fully protected.

On Site Servers in Northampton
While cloud servers are often the first choice for many organisations, there are situations where they may not provide the exact functionality your business requires. In these cases, an on-site server can be the more suitable option.
Physically, an on-site server resembles a desktop computer, but it is equipped with a much more powerful processor, allowing it to operate at higher speeds than a standard PC or laptop. In addition, a range of software options can be installed to suit specific business needs.
Certain industries rely on specialist software that cannot be hosted in the cloud but must still be accessed by multiple users. Installing such software on a server enables shared access, often reducing licensing costs since only one central licence is needed. Some applications may also demand the processing power of a dedicated server to run efficiently.
Unlike setting up a new computer or laptop, selecting and configuring the right server for your business is more complex and requires careful planning to ensure it meets both current and future requirements.
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 as with any computer, a server needs regular care and attention to ensure it continues to run properly. Since a business server stores critical company data, it is vital to keep track of its performance and deal with any problems at the earliest opportunity.
At Keba Computer Services, we provide installation of a Remote Monitoring and Management System (RMM) for servers in Northampton. This system alerts us immediately if any issues arise, allowing us to investigate and take action quickly. In many cases, we are able to identify and address faults before our clients even notice there is a problem.
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.
