Has 60+ users without domain! I can't even...
Currently paying $2500/month for hosted services where his employees RDP into a remote server to access software. (sounds like they are doing a lot more than just hosting the software).
And he needs assistance with picking a server to host these same services in house.
60 RDP sessions for 9 hr/day 22 days a month, or $0.21/hr, It's probably not that bad for a fully hosted RDP session with all licensing, etc included.
It's just a terminal server. Can't be that bad.
We actually have no idea if it's TS or not. I bet the OP doesn't even know at this point.
One good thing - at least he posted before he purchased anything, sadly it was after he told management that he can build a 60 user RDS environment with AD in house for $5-8K - LOL
Yeah

This is why ticketing systems are great. I put in a nice description of the dialogue the day of these discussions and can reference it later. That way if a year from now they say we never had that conversation I can go back and reference it.

why not upgrade the network connection instead?

@Dashrender That was my thought when I got to that point in the topic.
But who am I to be rational...

How much is he changing that that even matters?

@Dashrender I don't think the matter is the amount of file delta. The issue as I read it was the size of the files. With some files being in the 1GB+ range.
Raw video files etc. So while folder redirection probably works just fine for everyone, he wants to be the stickler (while being on a slow network connection)

LOL I'm not reading 6 pages of replies - suffice it to say, that map in the Unifi controller is only a few steps above meaningless. If the walls are lead lined some rooms could be completely dead signal wise.
He needs to use a real wifi tool to map his signal strength. Something like ekahau.

I can't even using a backup program to try and rotate 3 USB drives to backup his Server 2012 Essentials system.
(I hope it's virtual)..

Never heard of ekahau. I'll add that to the list though.

They have a pretty decent free utility to build a heatmap of your location - you just privide a map of your network, the walk and click.
