“Because enterprise networks are only getting more complex, you
need to find ways to simplify your equipment, not to mention your
job. The burgeoning server appliance market enables you to replace
the administration-heavy traditional servers in branch offices with
plug-and-play units that require little attention. But each server
appliance offers different specifications with varying performance.
Which one will best serve your needs and your users?”
“The options
- Cobalt Qube 2
- Compaq ProsigniaNeoServer
- HP NetServer E 60
- Rebel.com NetWinder GS
“The answer
“Each server appliance performed adequately for a
network with 50 to 100 users, but the Qube 2, our Test Center
Comparison winner, was tops in price vs. performance. The Qube 2,
with its browser-based interface and many customizable options, is
a good fit for remote offices and new workgroups.”
