SERVERS, NORTHAMPTONSHIRE
Some businesses continue to rely on specialist software that cannot be hosted in the Cloud. In these situations, investing in a dedicated on-site server is often the best solution, ensuring that day-to-day operations run smoothly and without interruption.
Benefits of a business server in Northamptonshire
When a company has multiple employees, efficient file sharing becomes essential. While an internal network can allow document exchange, it often creates avoidable problems. Updates to Windows can reset sharing permissions, and files are only accessible when the host computer is switched on, even if that staff member is away from work.
Installing a business server in Northamptonshire removes these complications by storing all files securely in one central location. It can also carry out automatic daily backups across every computer in the organisation, ensuring that data stays protected and can be quickly restored if any system experiences a fault.
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 provides an efficient and economical solution. There’s no need to purchase costly equipment, and because all data is hosted online, files and databases can be accessed securely from any location.
There are several types of cloud servers available for business use, and our team can guide you in selecting the option that best matches your company’s needs and existing IT systems.
Another major advantage is the reduction in maintenance expenses. Since the hardware and software are managed externally, you only pay for the resources and services you actually use.
Cloud servers also provide a secure environment for storing business data. However, if configured incorrectly, they can become vulnerable. For that reason, we always advise that setup and management are carried out by an experienced IT professional to ensure complete protection.

On Site Servers in Northamptonshire
Although cloud servers are the preferred choice for many organisations, there are times when they don’t provide the precise features or flexibility a business needs. In these circumstances, an on-site server can often be the better solution.
An on-site server looks similar to a desktop computer but contains far greater processing power, enabling it to perform at much higher speeds than a standard PC or laptop. It can also be configured with a wide range of software to suit your company’s unique operational requirements.
Some sectors rely on specialist software that cannot be hosted in the Cloud yet must still be accessed by multiple users. Hosting this software on a dedicated server allows shared access while often reducing licensing costs, as only a single central licence is required. In addition, certain applications depend on the higher performance that a dedicated server can provide.
Setting up and configuring a server is far more complex than installing a standard computer, so careful planning is essential to ensure it meets both your current needs and future growth in Northamptonshire.
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
Like any computer, a server requires consistent upkeep to keep it operating smoothly. Because it holds vital business data, monitoring its performance and addressing any issues as soon as they appear is essential to prevent downtime or data loss.
At Keba Computer Services, we install Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) systems for servers across Northamptonshire. This technology provides instant alerts if a problem occurs, allowing our team to respond quickly and resolve issues before they impact your operations. In many cases, we can identify and fix potential faults before our clients are even aware something 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.
