The Server: Do you have what you need?

It is highly recommended that mid-market accounting packages reside on their own dedicated server.


Your Partner will be able to provide you with the minimum system requirements, but servers come in “Honda Civic” to “Rolls Royce” versions – so you will need to rely on a trusted IT advisor.

If you decide to set up a portal (a secure online site to view data) for your system, this may require an additional server called an IIS server.
 
If you have a large number of reports, and run them on the same server as your application, it can dramatically impact performance. The result is frustrated users and complaints.

Plan ahead and distribute the processes evenly across multiple servers if necessary.
