Whether your extended organization consists of branch offices, retail outlets, remote properties, or distributed facilities, these additional locations should be adding to your bottom line, not costing you money. But delivering server benefits to each location can end up consuming a third of your IT budget and more. So how cost-effective is your current server configuration?

Based on Microsoft® Windows Server™ 2003 R2 and associated products, the Microsoft Branch Office Solution helps drive higher productivity and cost savings in disparate locations. This solution helps to reduce Wide-Area Network (WAN) traffic by up to 50 percent, simplify and centralize server management, replicate files with speed and enhanced security, and promote uninterrupted branch service. Best of all, it has been shown to deliver a measurable return on investment in less than six months.
