Micro Businesses

Micro businesses are businesses that have employees in single digits. There is a great deal of technological benefit to be brought to bear for micro businesses. The frequently have grown out of a one computer home office business and occasionally still run on one computer.

 

If there are multiple computers in a micro business, they are usually arranged in a peer-to-peer network, which can be a great way to share files between computers without having to move them to physical media and use the “sneaker-net” or e-mailing files between computers.

 

The first upgrade to technology in micro businesses is often a server. Servers bring a great deal of expanded functionality to micro business networks, including but not limited to:

 

·         How can we make our computers work better togerther?

·         How can we share data across multiple computers?

·         Can all of our files be automatically backed up in one place?

·         How do I keep better control of what employees do with their computers?

·         Can someone be looking after my network without actually being on site?

·         Can I access my files without hauling a laptop all over the world?
