Read the White Paper: Increasing Productivity While Reducing Costs: A Small Business Guide to Data Storage Solutions


Businesses of all sizes continually strive to increase productivity, to streamline processes and reduce downtime. There are countless ways of being more productive, but one of the easiest and cost-effective ways is to employ technology that is able to perform several duties for the company.

Functioning as a central file and print server, every employee has instant access to both private and shared folders while a central printer can be shared by all connected to the network. Another primary duty of any NAS is backup of all company data. With central backup, each workstation can be easily configured to automatically backup specific folders and files, ensuring the company never loses time or money due to data loss.

When out of the office, employees should not have to be denied access to pertinent data. With remote access to the office NAS data can be downloaded and shared with anyone from anywhere. Multi-platform offices are able to share files with ease when the NAS acts as the middle man; Mac, PC, and Linux computers can all access stored data at the same time without trouble.

Only having to install and maintain one piece of network hardware that does the job of several saves time, money, and headache for the IT manager. Not only great for the bottom line, but for productivity as the sales team has access to files from anywhere, the IT manager saves time and headache with setup and maintenance, and the entire office never suffers downtown due to data loss with automatically scheduled backups
