Server installation, migration and support in Surat
Your accounting software, ERP and shared files all depend on one or two machines in the office. When those servers are undersized, badly configured or ageing, everyone feels it: slow Tally or Busy, locked files, and a working day lost when something fails.
- UsersAccounts, ERP, files
- ServerWindows Server or Linux
- StorageRAID or ZFS layout
- BackupScheduled and checked
What it is
We plan, supply, install and maintain business servers. We size the hardware to your real workload, set up storage and RAID properly, and stay on to support it.
Problems this solves
- Accounting or ERP software is slow for every user
- The server is old, out of warranty or running an unsupported OS
- Nobody is sure how the existing server was configured
- A move to a new server needs to happen without losing data or a week of work
- Disks or RAID show warnings and no one is watching them
What we provide
- Requirement study and server sizing for your applications and users
- Server sourcing — tower or rack, Lenovo, Dell or HPE as suited
- Windows Server and Linux installation and configuration
- RAID or ZFS storage layout chosen for the platform and the workload
- Migration from old servers, including data, shares and permissions
- Hardware upgrades: RAM, SSDs, disks, controllers
- Troubleshooting of slow, unstable or failing servers
How we do it
- Understand the workloadWe look at the software you run, how many people use it, and how much data it holds.
- Specify and sourceWe propose a specification sized to that workload, and order it once you approve.
- Build and configureOperating system, storage layout, shares, permissions, updates and remote access are set up before anything goes live.
- Migrate in a planned windowData is copied and verified first, and the switch-over happens outside working hours.
- Support it afterwardsMonitoring, maintenance and troubleshooting continue under an AMC or on call.

A typical requirement
A textile trading office where 15 users run Tally and Busy from one ageing server, and month-end closing slows to a crawl.
A manufacturer replacing a 7-year-old server that runs ERP and file sharing, with no downtime allowed during working hours.
Common questions
Do we need a server, or is a good desktop enough?
It depends on the number of users, the software and how important the data is. We look at your setup and tell you plainly. Sometimes a well-configured NAS or a small server is enough.
Can you migrate our existing server without disrupting work?
We plan migrations so the switch-over happens in a planned window, usually outside business hours, after data has been copied and checked.
Do you only sell servers, or also support them?
Both. We source the hardware, configure it, and can support it afterwards under an AMC.
Is RAID a backup?
No. RAID and ZFS pools keep a server running when a disk fails, and ZFS snapshots can roll back recent changes. Neither protects you from fire, theft, ransomware or a file deleted last month. That needs a separate backup copy.
