Servers

Servers are the life blood of every business as they perform critical functions like enabling internet access, sending and receiving email, hosting applications, and for some companies, allowing business to be completed online. Because of the importance of servers, reliability and durability are essential. With years of experience, our talented technicians build reliable servers with an affordable price tag.

The standard turnaround to build a custom server is five to ten business days. We build mid to full size towers and rack mount servers of all sizes – 1U, 2U, 4U, etc. If you have an emergency, we will respond ASAP to get you up and running. Turnaround for emergency repairs may depend on what parts are in currently in stock.
