The service
A Server Deployed Right the First Time
A badly installed server haunts a business for years, random logins failures, permissions chaos, backups that were never configured. We install Windows Server the disciplined way: correct edition and licensing for your user count, RAID-protected storage, hardened security settings, properly structured Active Directory, and organised file shares with per-department permissions. Every staff computer is joined to the domain and tested before we leave.
You also get what most installers skip: full documentation, server credentials, network settings, license records, and a recovery plan, so your business owns its infrastructure instead of depending on whoever set it up.
- Company files scattered across individual laptops with no control
- Everyone sharing one password for everything
- A new server still in its box because nobody configured it
- An old server installed years ago that nobody understands
- No proper backups of business-critical data
- Failed DIY installations causing login and network chaos
We start with a scoping visit: users, data volume, growth plans, and whether Server Standard or Essentials fits best. Deployment covers installation, roles, Active Directory, file shares, backup configuration, and joining every workstation, typically one to two working days, scheduled around your business hours.
What you get
What Our Windows Server Installation Includes
We treat a server install as a build with a checklist, not a quick run through the setup wizard. These are the steps every installation goes through before handover.
- Hardware and RAID prepWe update firmware, build the RAID array on the controller and check disk health before the operating system goes on.
- OS install and licensingWindows Server is installed, activated and patched, with user or device CALs counted against your real headcount.
- Active Directory buildWe create the domain, an organisational unit for each department and security groups that match how your team actually works.
- DNS and DHCP rolesThe server takes over DNS and DHCP from the router, with reserved addresses for printers and other fixed devices.
- Group Policy baselinePolicies set password rules, screen lock, mapped drives and printer deployment, so every PC is configured the same way.
- Group based file permissionsShares get NTFS permissions assigned to groups, never to individual users, so access stays tidy as staff join and leave.

Problems we solve
Windows Server Problems We Fix in Dubai
Plenty of servers we visit were installed in a hurry and never finished. These are the faults that point back to a rushed setup, and how we correct them.
- !Logging in takes five minutes every morning
Our fixUsually the PCs use the router for DNS instead of the domain controller, so they struggle to find the domain. We correct DHCP so every client asks the server for DNS.
- !Staff can open folders they should not see
Our fixPermissions were left open to Everyone or granted user by user over the years. We rebuild access on security groups and remove the broad entries without breaking current work.
- !My PC says the trust relationship failed
Our fixThe computer's machine account password fell out of sync with the domain, often after restoring an old image. We repair the secure channel or rejoin the PC and keep the user's profile.
- !Logins fail because the server clock is wrong
Our fixKerberos rejects logins when clocks drift more than five minutes apart. We point the main domain controller at a reliable external time source so every PC follows it.
- !The server restarts itself overnight
Our fixAutomatic updates are installing and rebooting with no maintenance window. We set a controlled update schedule and check the event log for crashes hiding behind the restarts.
QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does installation take?
A standard single-server deployment, installation, Active Directory, file shares, backups, and joining workstations, typically takes one to two working days on-site, scheduled to minimise disruption.
Which version will you install?
Windows Server 2022 for most new deployments (2019 where compatibility requires it), in the edition that matches your user count, we’ll explain the Standard vs Essentials choice in plain terms before you buy anything.
Do we need to buy the hardware first?
No, we can specify and source the right server hardware for your budget, or deploy onto hardware you already have if it’s suitable. The scoping visit answers this definitively.
Will our team lose access during setup?
No, we build and test the new environment first, then migrate machines in scheduled batches, usually outside peak hours. Most teams notice nothing except that things work better.
Can you migrate our old server's data and settings?
Yes, data, user accounts, and shares are migrated and verified as part of the deployment. See our server migration service for complex multi-server moves.
What support do we get afterwards?
Documentation lets any competent engineer maintain it, but most clients add an AMC, we then monitor, update, and back up the server continuously with priority response.
