Signs your server needs attention
It's slowing everyone down
Shared files crawl, the practice or accounting software lags, and staff wait on the server several times a day.
It's out of warranty
An ageing server with no warranty is a gamble. When it fails, parts and recovery both take longer than your business can afford.
It's running out of space
Storage fills up, backups start failing quietly, and someone deletes things to keep the office running.
Nobody's sure about backups
If you can't say when the last successful backup ran, or whether it can actually be restored, that needs sorting before anything else.
Planned around your business, not ours
Server work touches everything: files, email, line-of-business software, backups. So before we recommend anything, we look at how your business actually uses its systems, how much data you hold, and how much growth the new machine should allow for. You'll get a written recommendation you can understand, with the reasoning spelled out.
We also talk plainly about continuity. What happens if a drive fails, how backups are kept and tested, and what a sensible warranty looks like for equipment your business depends on. We won't promise you a system that never goes down, because nobody can. We will set things up so problems are recoverable.
Frequently asked questions
Do we even need a server, or should we move to the cloud?
It depends on your software, internet connection and how your team works. Some businesses are better off in the cloud, some genuinely need on-site equipment, and many land on a mix. We'll assess your situation and give you a straight recommendation either way.
How disruptive is a server replacement?
We plan migrations to keep downtime short and schedule the cutover outside your busy hours where possible. You'll know in advance exactly what will be unavailable and when.
What happens to our data during migration?
We back up your existing server before we start, move your data across, and verify it on the new machine before the old one is retired.
Can you maintain the server after installation?
Yes. We can monitor the basics, keep updates applied and check backups as part of ongoing support, or simply be the team you call when something needs attention.
Server getting old, slow or full?
We'll assess it honestly and tell you what's worth doing.
