First in depth Australian review of SBS 2008

New article just published on apcmagpro.com by Paul Schnackenburg - long-time IT writer, MCSE & Small Business Server user since v4.0.

I really enjoyed reading through this article & whilst there will always be some differences of opinion in such a comprehensive product, I really think he got to the nut of the offering. Here are some comments that I'll call out:

  • "After playing with it for a couple of weeks, one thing is clear: apart from the new, comprehensive console (see below), the strength of SBS 2008 lies in the advances in the underlying OS and applications."
  • "A fresh installation is a surprisingly simple affair, as well as a lot faster than an SBS 2003 installation."
  • "Setting up client computers is now easier than ever before. No longer do you need to remember the server name of each client so that you can type in https://servername/connectomputer; now it’s always https://connect ."

And his summary:

SBS 2008 - the Next Big Thing?

I have been involved with SBS ever since the very first version, 4.0. It took until SBS 2003 for Microsoft to get it right, and the market share reflects the great success that SBS 2003 has been.
SBS 2008 is more of an evolution than a revolution, but with so many strong points I have no doubt that it will find a home in many small businesses, both existing SBS customers as well as new installations.

Time will tell, but there’s definitely a buzz in the small business community around SBS 2008, especially as many are looking forward to offering the great new features in Windows Server 2008 and Exchange 2007.

 

Loads more reviews sure to come & I'll post them here as I find them,

Robbie
