Setup required for small business

A[L]C · 28 Sep 2011 at 19:24

Hi all,

I am looking for some recommendations please. My sister and brother in law have a small welding business. There are 3 users, 2 of which are laptop users.

Currently they use a livedrive briefcase, but I would like to get something a bit more reliable and maybe just livedrive from the server.

They need to be able to have remote access to the files from home as well as in the office.

I have been recommended WHS and a HP ProLiant Athlon II Neo N36L MicroServer.

Does this sound about right?

Thanks
Paul

The main issue is they don't trust livedrive. It has been down with some issues for them for a few days, and they panicked when they couldn't reach their data. I intend to continue with cloud storage, but not to solely rely on it.

The issue I have is with version control and save conflicts. They are not technically minded, and my efforts to get them to change revisions via file naming have failed

Any ideas about the versioning?
