Server Setup in Erie
Built for Erie.
Backed by 20+ years.
File servers, email servers, and domain controllers configured for reliability and performance. Windows Server and Linux setup, Active Directory deployment, Group Policy, DNS, DHCP, and integrated backup systems for businesses across the Erie, PA and the surrounding area. For Erie businesses, that means file, email, and domain controllers configured for reliability.
MCR Business Tech Solutions delivers server setup to organizations throughout the Erie area, combining 24/7 remote monitoring with hands-on on-site support when you need it. Whether you're standing up a new operation, upgrading aging infrastructure, or building out a more secure environment, we tailor every engagement to your specific situation rather than applying a one-size-fits-all template.
Our 20+ years of IT experience across Western Pennsylvania means we understand the realities of running a business in Erie: the connectivity options, the building infrastructure, the budget constraints, and the operational pressure that makes downtime so expensive. Every solution we recommend accounts for those realities.
What we deliver
Server Setup for Erie businesses.
Every feature below is part of our standard server setup engagement in Erie, available on its own or as part of a managed IT plan.
Windows Server & Linux
Full deployments on Windows Server (any current version) and Linux (Ubuntu, Debian, Rocky). Hybrid environments fully supported.
Active Directory & Group Policy
Domain controller deployment, AD schema design, organizational units, security groups, and Group Policy templates for centralized user and device management.
File & Print Servers
Shared file servers with permissions modeled to your team structure, plus print servers, scan-to-folder, and document-management integration.

Internal DNS zones, DHCP scopes, reservations, and integration with your network infrastructure. Configured for reliability and performance from day one.
Backup Integration
Every server we deploy is paired with a backup plan. On-premises backup, off-site replication, or cloud-tiered storage. Tested and documented.
Migration from Existing Servers
Migrating off an aging server? We plan the cutover, replicate data, and minimize downtime. Most small-business migrations complete over a single weekend.
Why MCR
Why Erie businesses choose MCR for server setup.
Local response across Erie
When something needs hands on it in Erie, we don't have to dispatch from a distant city. Our 1-2 hour emergency response window covers the entire Erie area, with most day-to-day issues resolved remotely in minutes through our 24/7 monitoring tools.
20+ years of regional experience
Michael DiLauro founded MCR after more than two decades in IT across Western Pennsylvania. That experience covers the specific realities Erie businesses face: the connectivity options, the building infrastructure, and the operational pressures that make reliable technology non-negotiable.
Proactive, not reactive
Most server setup engagements run smoother when problems are caught early. Our monitoring tools watch for performance issues, configuration drift, and security anomalies around the clock, so we can address concerns before they affect your team.
Right-sized for your operation
Erie businesses range from small offices to multi-location operations, and we right-size every engagement accordingly. No oversold enterprise gear for a 10-person team. No consumer-grade compromises in environments that can't tolerate an outage.
