Question

We are a new start-up company with five to eight employees. I know we need a server and office network. We need software to create animations and apps. And we want to get our own website. I've looked online at different servers this has only made choosing one even harder. We are lost, I guess what we need is a simple server for our accounting software, shared files, and e-mail/Internet. Please be as specific as possible on the specs. We are a very small startup so you will need to work with a small budget like $10.000.

create a list of items and prices needed to create the network and present their proposal, the proposal should explain why they have chosen the particular network plan, including hardware and software and what business needs they have taken into account. Include parts, costs and why you believe these items will work for their needs.

Make sure to include the following information:

• Proposal Title

• Solution (you may give several options to choose from)
• Estimate (don't forget labor costs!)
