Need a Windows 2012 Virtual Server

[PhilHunkler]

I run a Small business...............5 employees.
I currently run my own server out of my home and have for 10+ years (Windows 2012 Server) and have remote employees access via internet...........REMOTE DESKTOP CONNECTION. 

I am interested in finding a vendor/business that will host a server for me............or rent me 50GB of space on an existing Windows 2012 Server.

 

Need to run on server:

1)One Database/CRM............similar to ACT

2)Microsoft Office

 

Fairly simple set up.

 

 

Any suggestions?

Hey,

 

Your best bet would be to head over to WHT: www.webhostingtalk.com and have a look at some reviews and offers. However be aware if you're using RDC to access Office, you're going to have a fair bit of lag for something that isn't local. If you want to host it locally, have a look at Server Essentials as you won't need CAL's for it.

 

Edit: how much would you be looking to spend a month for the VPS?

Microsoft Azure might be what you're looking for.  They offer scalable VMs for your needs, and they have a lot of templates to get you up and running quick.

That's true - or Amazons alternative whose name escapes me.
