Microsoft delivers big solutions for small businesses

Windows Server 2008 affordable, reliable

Windows Server 2008 Foundation, the expansion of Microsoft’s Windows Server family, was released with small business needs in mind. Designed for small businesses with 15 or fewer users, Windows Server 2008 Foundation puts the reliability, security and manageability of the Windows Server platform within the reach of all businesses at an affordable price. It will give small businesses in 40 countries with the ability to run business applications and databases, host web sites, and provide basic server functionality such as file and print sharing and remote access.

“Windows is filling a crucial hole at the low end of its Windows Server portfolio by delivering a simple, low cost solution geared to small businesses and first-time server users,” says Al Gillen, program vice president IDC.
