Server Hardware Requirements

Hello

 

I am currently using the Quickbooks Desktop Version Premier 2020 UK. We have two stores and I am looking to buy a server over which I can share the software and then staff from both stores can access it and use the same company file so the stocks and all details are simultaneously updates for both stores. I would like to know if the DELL T140 Server with lets say 16GB RAM AND 1TB HDD is enough for this requirement? It will only have Windows Server and QB installed. I do not intend to use it for anything else. Can anyone recommend any servers that should be suitable for this requirement? Lets say I have 5 users accessing it at the same time.

I'll make sure you get the right support available so you can access your stores simultaneously by using the best server, @Shabbir Abbas.

 

I suggest working with your local IT for further guidance in choosing the server hardware that best fits your business. This way, we can ensure you and your staff can concurrently access the same company file seamlessly.

 

You can also check out this link for additional details about how QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) works efficiently with the server: System requirements for QuickBooks Desktop 2020.

 

Let me also add this link that you can utilize in case you want to host your company files over a network with Database Server Manager: Use QuickBooks Database Server Manager.

 

I'll be around if you have any other questions about QBDT system requirements or with your company file. It's always my pleasure to help you out. Keep safe!

Is your company located in UK?

How will you connect your two stores to the server? By internet?
