What advantages does Small Business Server, or Windows 2003/2008 Sever, provide my business over just having my workstations in a work group?
There are quite a few advantages, and how they apply to your business depends on many variables. There is no pat answer if the extra cost and effort, although not substantial, will give you business benefits. Again, that is where TechEvents can help you. But if you have multiple locations, mobile or remote workers, need to share data among applications running on multiple local networks, want to host your own web site or your own mail server, then there are significant advantages in terms of reliability, security, and control. Costs are not as great either, since what you spend on the OS and server computer are somewhat offset by the network access and security devices you would have to purchase instead.
