For help choosing the best version of Small Business Server for your organisation, see TechSoup New Zealand's SBS 2011 Guide.

Small Business Server 2011 Standard Edition provides small organizations with many of the features used by large organizations - file and printer sharing, an email server, tools to manage Internet access, internal websites (intranets), remote access, support for mobile devices, and backup/restore tools - in an integrated product that supports up to 75 users.

Small Business Server 2011 is available only as a 64-bit operating system and can be installed only on a server with a 64-bit processor.

Remote Web Access gives any worker with a web browser secure access to email, internal websites, shared folders, organisation and administration links, and networked computers. Access can be restricted by assignment to groups or roles. Windows Mobile-based devices can access e-mail, calendar, contacts, and tasks from the server.

The organisation is protected from unauthorised users and data loss with:

  • Built-in firewall protection
  • Automatic data backup and the ability to retrieve and restore previous versions

Automated patch and update management tools keep the server and networked computers up-to-date. Administrators can set the level of automatic approval and the times at which updates occur.

Small Business Server's management console provides administrators with a set of tabs and wizards that lets them perform all necessary tasks. The console's Home window shows at a glance by green check or warning icons whether security, updates, backups, and other functions are OK or need attention.
