When Cabins To Go moved to new premises, they had one ageing computer and one laptop. They had lost time previously due to data being lost or unavailable through virus activity. They were interested in new computer hardware to meet their growth requirements - however, they still needed to run a win98SE system to operate their CAD software. They also wanted to share files between systems.
Pro Computer Services audited their systems and recommended a solution which allowed Cabins To Go to:
- Network their computers
- Share internet and printer resources
- Share files between systems
- Back up files from one computer to another
Internet security via firewall and anti-virus software was installed. Off-site back backups using CDs were implemented in addition to an on-site backup system.
The older computer was set up with a removable drive, which allowed them to run two separate operating systems on the one machine (without wasting resource due to dual booting).
