What can server colocation offer that keeping my server at the office can't offer? A state of the art network is costly to set up and maintain. Although that can be cost effective for a large company, small and mid sized companies are likely to find it more convenient to use a provider's network. Because colocation companies deal in bulk bandwidth, you are also likely to pay much less for your site's bandwidth than you would if you ran the network out of your office. In addition, colocation facilities have more secure power sources and better environmental controls than the average office building. An optimal environment and continuous power is essential to peak server performance.
