Businesses with 10 or fewer employees need to store ever-increasing amount of data. They also require affordable solutions to back up data, share files, and collaborate on a single file at the same time. However, very few have the luxury of dedicated IT support.
Many begin by storing files on a traditional server, but when backup, or collaboration issues arise, the server is quickly rendered inadequate. Others choose public cloud storage, which is convenient for collaboration but raises concerns about control of the data and costly subscription fees.
A NAS can simplify your work and solve the above issues. Most of all, it’s easy to use and cost-effective. Let’s take a look at what a NAS can do for your small business.
- File Server: A NAS can make collaborating with colleagues and sharing projects with customers efficient. Office enables your team to work simultaneously and interact by leaving comments. Chat allows your team to have quick discussions and never miss notifications. Mail+ allows for a private mail server and a web-based mail client to boost productivity.
- Home & Office Clouds: Powerful private cloud storage making it possible for every home or small office to host your own cloud – with 100% data ownership and no subscription fees. See how this changes the way we live and work, access and share data.
- Centralized Backup: Backing up data scattered across PCs, servers, and VMs is always challenging – remote offices, teleworkers and employees can make things even more complicated. Active Backup for Business makes backup easy through a unified, intuitive console without license fees. Active Backup for Microsoft 365/G Suite also allows you to easily back up email, contacts, Drive and calendar from My Drives or Team Drives on Google or Microsoft accounts to a NAS, without worrying about accidental deletion
- High Availability: If you can’t tolerate outages such as server or storage failures, then you need a High Availability (HA) solution to ensure employee access to data and services at all times. By using 2 NAS you can form a High Availability cluster. All services and data requests are handled by the active NAS and mirrored to the standby, passive NAS in real time.
