If I had that kind of equipment and support, I'd never even have looked at AC.


Not gonna lie, it's fun to have a server wink. Pretty much maintains itself. I get daily reports if anything goes wrong. Wrote scripts that delete old backups, scheduled maintenance all happens. Not having to configure workstations. Makes my life 10 times easier. I do login occasionally to install windows updates every month or two.
