We have grown rapidly from a small company into a mid sized company with around 50 Windows 7 machines.
All machines are networked simply by home networking means and file sharing.
It's becoming increasingly difficult and time consuming to manage all these machines. Examples include:
- Wiping machines and reinstalling software when staff leave and new staff start
- Some machines are laptops for people out on the road
- Implementing changes on each machine individually
I am not an IT professional but have managed everything up until now.
Does anyone have any advice or recommendations on how to make things easier?
I think getting Windows Server and Active Directory logins is probably the way to go for the on site machines but in the interim does anyone have any suggestions of software etc that would make things easier?
Thanks in advance.
