Information Synergy provides a range of server solutions to match your business needs. Our services can be tailored to your specific requirements, and can range from a fully-tailored monitoring and management program to ‘as required’ support to assist with issues that you require assistance with. Information Synergy recommends and supplies solutions built on quality products from major enterprise vendors. Whilst we only recommend high quality equipment from respectable enterprise suppliers, we offer our support services to all clients, regardless of the origin of their equipment.
Proactive Maintenance
Like most complex machinery your servers benefit from regular attention to keep them running effectively and safely. Regular proactive maintenance of your servers is the best way to avoid annoying downtime for your business. Information Synergy encourages regular checks of your servers. The purpose of these activities is to run through and check areas where common issues occur and put in place preventative measures to reduce possible causes for outages and to keep you running smoothly all year round. The checks and timing of these services are tailored to your needs. Depending upon the size of your network you may organise visits on a monthly, bi-monthly or quarterly basis.
Server Virtualisation, Migration and Data Centre Consolidation
Server virtualisation can provide your business with significant benefits, from reduced hardware cost and simpler migrations to faster backup restoration in the event of a disaster; a virtualised environment is the choice of modern businesses everywhere. Our customers use a wide range of virtualisation technologies including Microsoft Hyper-V, VMware and Citrix XenServer. Information Synergy has the experience and knowledge to help you choose the right virtualisation technology and architecture for your business without vendor prejudice.
File Servers, User Access and Logon Management
Managing your user domains and logins can cause headaches - even for experienced technical staff. The Information Synergy team manage a large number of Active Directory user domains so we can assist you with adding and deleting users, shared drives, group policies, logon automation and other “behind the scenes” user access management tasks.
Application, Web and Database Servers
To support our high performance business solutions like Pronto and Tencia we need reliable application, web and database servers. The Information Synergy technical team supports a range of servers in a wide variety of Windows and Linux environments and can supply, build, test and install the server that is a perfect fit for your needs.
Remote Access and Virtual Desktop Infrastructure
Accessing your business applications and servers via remote desktop services or thin clients can greatly simplify your IT environment and reduce the cost of desktop infrastructure and support. In some cases you could save even more with a complete virtual desktop infrastructure using the latest VDI technology from Microsoft, Citrix or VMware. Our team use these technologies every day and can advise you on the complexities of remote desktop and virtual desktop infrastructures as well as the benefits of deploying these technologies in your organisation.
Small Business Server Migrations
In the past many smaller organisations have enjoyed the lower costs and extra benefits of Microsoft’s Small Business Server solutions and we have many years of experience managing the sometimes complex issues which can arise in these multi-purpose servers. Microsoft has ceased production of Small Business Server, and mainstream support for most SBS Editions has now ended. Many businesses are now migrating their Small Business Server environments to new virtual multi-server solutions as server hardware needs to be upgraded. Information Synergy has extensive experience in these migrations and can manage your migration keeping business disruption to a minimum.
