SBITS.Biz is now a
Member of the Microsoft
Most Valuable
Professionals.
SBS-MVPs are exceptional
technical community
leaders from around the
world who are awarded
for voluntarily sharing
their high quality, real
world expertise in
offline and online
technical communities.
Microsoft MVPs are a
highly select group of
experts that represents
the technical
community's best and
brightest, and they
share a deep commitment
to community and a
willingness to help
others.
Over 100 million people
participate in technical
communities but there
are only about 50 SBS-MVPs worldwide.
Outstanding technical
community members are
nominated by their
peers, Microsoft
employees, and SBS-MVPs.
Each year a panel of
Microsoft employees
reviews the
contributions of each
nominee for quality,
quantity, and level of
impact on the technical
community. Today's
SBS-MVPs
reflect Microsoft's
global customer base and
the breadth of its
technologies.
SBS-MVPs are not Microsoft
employees, nor do they
speak on Microsoft's
behalf. SBS-MVPs are
third-party individuals
who have received an
award from Microsoft
that recognizes their
exceptional achievements
in technical
communities. |
Our Personal Promise to You!
We will not waste your
time and money making
suggestions, to just pad
our pockets, and make
us rich.
We believe in getting things right the first time, not band aiding things together for temporary useless solutions.
We
believe in making your life
simpler, not more complex
We believe in industry standards
and the K.I.S.S. method of Server
and PC set up, Why?
If you have another technician
work on your systems, we don't
want them to spend hours trying to
figure out what we've done.
We also know that buying the
most expensive doesn't mean it's the "BEST"
There are
many Free or
low cost software/hardware solutions that do the same if not
provide a better solution to the same problem.
Do you require a
deposit to work on my
Servers/PC's?
Absolutely NOT, we've heard some
Technicians require this, and we
think it's dishonest,
After all you are TRUSTING us,
to even have access to your
systems.
Requiring you to give us a check
before we start is just plain
stupid,
(Please stay away from this type
of IT Support companies.)
The reason they ask for up front
money is
probably because of the shoddy
work they do, and they are
afraid they won't get paid.
(Note: up front money may be
required on major purchase of
equipment is required.)
Do you Charge
for Travel Miles?
If total commute time is over
20mins one way, and less than
2hr on site, there is an
additional $30 dollar
surcharge.
(Distance is Calculated from
Beaverton OR 97007 USA, this
does not include travel with
planes.)
Do You Do
Remote Support?
Yes, 80% of our clients are
remote, from all over the world.
You can have us access via RDC
on Port 3389 or through Remote
Web Workplace with port
443 and 4125,
or use CrossLoop to connect

How many employees do you need
to make SBS worth while?
Believe it or not As little as 2
employees you can find great use of
a
SBS server.
(Remote access, PC My Document
folder backups, Auto updates and
more)
What kind of hardware do I need?
This really Depends on How many
Users you are going to have on
the server.
Also if you are any LOB or SQL,
ISA or other Services.
we suggest a Single or Dual
Proc 64Bit Microprocessor. (Like
Intel's Xeon.)
and 4GB

for SBS2008 8GBMin RAM.

How long does
it take to install SBS Server?
It takes about 1-2 FULL Long Days
to Set up and configure a SBS
Server,
(This is more or less, depending
on migration of database and
users.)
Then about 1-3hrs For Each PC
(Depending on how well the PC's
are Serviced)
(This example is
moving from a peer to Domain
Environment.)
After install and PC's set up,
there are always a couple of
things that Pop up.
But Typically 4-5 days is
average for a Small Office.
We suggest that we install the
server on a weekend,
(Saturday-Sunday)
This impacts most businesses
less, and no, we don't charge more
for this, it's just part of our
service.
What are some of the
questions I need to know before
installing my SBS Server?http://www.sbits.biz/Preliminary_Questions_For_Installing_SBS_2003_Server.pdf
Will you help
me in a remote SBS Support?
Yes, you
must be willing to let me access your server if
we need to,
there are some things that would
take for ever for me to explain
on the phone that
we can login and check in
seconds, this saves you time and
money by letting us do this.
If we assist you it typically
takes longer than us doing the
job alone...
Will you help
me in a remote install?
(8-hour Minimum Billing)
Yes and No, Depending on your Skill
Level, we will assist you and walk
you through a install.
Remember;
Microsoft Suggests an On-Site Qualified
Tech to install a SBS Server.
(We will have to talk to you
first, to see if we will work on
you with this.
Note: A server install can take
over 8hrs of phone time, for basic
set up, depending on your
skill/knowledge.
(Until we have full
Admin Remote Control of the server there is
No
Guaranteed Results on
this type of service.
You must know
Basic TCP/IP, DNS Configure
Firewall Server Concepts,
etc.
Because Until we get Remote
Connection to the server, we can't
physically help you.)
There is also an Option where we
build the server and have it
shipped to you.
What if I don't need full remote
help, just a "On-Call" Weekend
Support.
In the event you are doing a
major upgrade and you want me
"On-call" in case of emergency.
There is a 4hr per day minimum
"On-Call" Charge. {Paid in
Advanced}. What this does is
make sure I'm available 24hrs
that day,
To help you with your issues.
(After 4 hrs of support the
regular rates apply.)
Not paying for this in advance,
means that I may be busy with
other things and not be able to
provide emergency support.
How far will
you travel to install my SBS
server?
We've had clients
fly us
to Washington DC to install a SBS2003
server.
*and had offers to install in
Hong Kong however our schedule
didn't permit it.
If you have a long distance
install,
please feel free to contact us.
(We love Installing SBS So much
we'd probably go anywhere)
We've even been asked to go to
China for a install, however our
busy
schedule did not allow it.
If you do this, I'd request you
plan a Technician to be there 4-5 days
minimum.
(And if it's out of the States
please give us a month notice.)
we don't require First Class, basic Hotel with
High-speed, and Rental Car, and
small
food allowance.
(Unless walking distance from
place of work. Minimum cost for
this, is $4,500 plus Expenses)
