Optimized Computing works with many small businesses who are ready to make the leap from inefficient local peer to peer networks to a true server-based technology. There are many advantages to moving to the domain based server model if the complexity of maintaining your existing system has gotten unwieldy.

We base our server strategy on the strong foundation of Microsoft's 2003 or 2008 server software. This is a proven dependable system that is consistently being upgraded and tweaked by Microsoft to assure security and performance. It offers the widest range of features so that the system can be tailored to very small companies (5 employees and under) or scaled to a full enterprise version utilizing server farms and supporting thousands of users. Our focus with servers, just like our main business focus is the micro and small business arena. Companies that support several hundred or more users will have their own IT departments.

For hardware, we rely on our partnership with Dell Computers. Over the years we have found Dell's equipment to be competitively priced, very high quality and their support services are the best in the business. Support for all of Dell's servers in based in the United States so getting correct answers is fast when there is a problem.

We can also support your existing Microsoft based servers and make recommendations on how to keep them running their best. We will also make recommendations on when we think it is cost effective for you to move to a new server.
