Q 16: But I could buy my own server for less!
Answer:Yes, and that may seem much cheaper when you look at how much you would be paying us over a long period of time. However, there is more to installing the server than just the hardware. Most servers do not come with an operating system. Even if they do, it will rarely be more than a basic install, and this will require a lot of configuration before being usable. Most cheap servers are cheap because they come with little or no real warranty, and once you add that to the specification, the price starts to go up even further. In addition, you need to get a backup system, and that will easily cost you the same as the server. It is our experience that installing a server properly will cost you about the same as getting a server from us for a year. And, unlike buying an off-the-shelf server Forget About IT provides ongoing support.
