Microsoft Server Microsoft Server is the core of today’s small to medium business computing environment.  We have been supporting Microsoft operating systems since DOS 3.3, through the painful early years of Windows and into the mature network operating systems stemming from Windows Server NT 4.0.  The advent of Windows 2000 Server and Microsoft’s Active Directory answer to Novell’s Directory Services ushered Windows into serious data centers previously reserved for Unix and Novell servers with it’s newfound stability, scalability and features.  Despite its over 50 million lines of code, Windows server 2003 delivers a level of stability and manageability that far out paces its predecessors.  Companies need server management by technicians who deal with Windows Server 2003 on a daily basis.  At McKeeCo.Net, we are fully qualified to fully implement and support Microsoft Server Operating Systems.  Document Management Where core business services are dependent on document production, document management is a must, especially in the legal environment where faulty versioning is a malpractice liability issue.  We have over seven years experience in supporting Interwoven’s iManage document management product.  iManage offers the most reliable, flexible, accessible and intuitive document management on the market today.  Our experience includes full installation and support of the iManage product line, as well as complex migration projects from foreign document management systems (e.g. Docs Open) and importation of large document stores external to any existing document management system.  Internet Connectivity and Security Our years of experience have made us expert in designing and implementing complex LAN and WAN infrastructures, including VPN tunneling between offices and remote workstations.  We have over 8 years of experience implementing and supporting Sonicwall firewall and VPN solutions, assuring your network is secure from electronic espionage and malicious attacks, and at a fraction of the price of Cisco systems.  We are expert in maximizing uptime, too, with longstanding experience in implementing innovative failover systems and in dealing with Internet Service Providers.  We go the extra step, too, in helping to find a balance between open systems and security, assuring your data is available when and were needed, without compromising security.
