In the current economic climate, small business owners need technology which pays its way many times over. So we grilled Paul Spelling, Managing Director of Storm IT, a Microsoft Small Business Specialist Partner on productivity and value. Before setting up Storm IT in the West Midlands, Paul worked as a service manager for a 250-strong international company - so he's seen IT services both as a provider and a user. We asked him a few questions about how a server really helps to protect data and drive productivity in small businesses – here a few of them.

  • Can’t I just go round and back up all the PCs every night?
  • Don’t I need a whole IT department or at least all sorts of procedures to follow?
  • What is the point of a server in the office?

If you’ve been asking yourself the same questions you probably suspect that a server might just help you become more secure and more efficient but aren’t sure how. Read the full article So who needs a server, anyway for Paul’s clear and concise and answers.
