Microsoft Windows 2003 Terminal Services
Remote Access Server

The ability to remotely access email, files, shared information, like calendars, and applications as if you are sitting at your desk in your office provides opportunities to be productive where ever you have Internet access. Microsoft's Windows Server 2003 with Terminal Services provides companies flexibility plus cost savings and data security. ERGOS deploys Windows Server 2003 Terminal Services as a robust, solid remote access solution for small to mid size businesses. Although Microsoft Small Business Server provides Remote Web Workplace as a remote access solution, companies who choose Terminal Services want maximum flexibility.

Advantages of Terminal Server

Windows Server™ 2003 Terminal Services is a technology that lets you remotely execute applications on a Windows Server 2003-based server from a wide range of devices over virtually any type of network connection. With the integration of Terminal Services into the core Windows Server 2003 operating system, you can choose to deploy the latest Windows-based applications in a fully server-centric mode, where applications run entirely on the server. When Terminal Services is enabled on Windows Server 2003, administrators do not have to install Windows-based 32-bit applications on each desktop computer. Instead, the application is installed once on the server, and the clients automatically have access to the new or upgraded software package, such as Microsoft Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc., through Terminal Services Client software.

Companies Who Need Terminal Services

Microsoft Terminal Services allows businesses to bring their applications to a single server for use by users anywhere in the world. Companies who may need Terminal Services are companies who have workers who are spread out all over the city, region, country or the world. Instead of deploying database or accounting software on everyone's pc or laptop, they can be put on a server and remote users can log on and use it across the Internet as a robust, solid and secure connection.

Benefits of Terminal Services

• Upgrading, troubleshooting and software management all become easier because software applications are on one machine.
• Installation, configuration, management and maintenance of applications is faster and easier than deploying on numerous desktop machines.
• By making deployment easier, companies save money on IT support costs.
• Centrally patching and upgrading applications is easier and simpler, for example.
• Since troubleshooting is simpler because it's centralized, downtime is reduced and workers can be more productive.
• Processing and storage requirements on worker's machines is less which means less beefier machines are needed for workstations.
• Your IT budget can be focused on a few high-powered systems rather than on pouring money into worker's machines.
