Hosted Servers

With our Hosted Servers, you can avoid the costly outlay of replacing servers. It is not just the hardware and software costs, or the installation time, a key consideration is future-proofing your server and paying for extra capacity. Capacity which you may, or may not, need.

Cloud computing services such as hosted servers offer a far more attractive solution. With no initial costs, you simply pay for the storage you need now. Businesses constantly change so if you need more, or less, this is available at the touch of a button.

Hosted servers are the smart choice for business

Akita provides a complete range of hosted servers including Microsoft Exchange, SharePoint, SQL, Virtual desktops and dedicated website hosting.

Choosing a hosted server will save your business money. With the example of Microsoft Exchange, the costs of a replacement server would be several thousand pounds solely in hardware and software alone. Of course, that server needs to be maintained – another ongoing cost and hassle.

Plus, an onsite server can cost as much as £200 a month in power to run and cool. Depending on the size of your office, this saving alone could go a long way to pay for a hosted server.

Future proof your IT systems

Is your business prepared for the future – or even the next software update? When Microsoft brings out a new version of Exchange, will you have bought big enough hard disks? What if your user base increases more than expected? This could leave you in a storage shortfall that can quickly impact your business.

By hosting your data in Akita’s state-of-the-art data centres, you can stop worrying about your server hardware capacity and get on with your business.

We’ll cover security too, with the option for us to use enterprise-level anti-spam and anti-virus solutions to protect your data.

Only pay for the space you need

With Akita’s hosted solutions, you only pay for the storage you need. The cost relates specifically to user numbers and the amount of data you store. This ensures not only that you simply have one small monthly payment, but also gives you the peace of mind.

There’s also flexibility to increase or decrease your usage as necessary. And as Akita knows it can sometimes be easy to use more data than you intend, we’ll send you alerts if you’re getting close to your storage limit. This leaves you free to decide whether to increase your storage or if it’s time to have a digital spring clean!
