Can I join my server to a SharePoint 2010 Farm as a member?

​The cloud server with SQL Express is installed as a standalone SharePoint Foundation 2010 server and cannot be joined to a SharePoint Farm. The cloud servers with SQL Standard are configured as Farm servers and can be removed from the pre-configured farm and joined to an existing farm.

Do you offer a SharePoint Server 2010 version?

​Yes we do. However with SharePoint 2016 around the corner, we encourage all our customers to migrate to either 2013 or 2016 versions. When Microsoft finally launch SharePoint 2016, NextSharePoint.com will only support SharePoint Foundation 2010. If you would like to use SharePoint server 2010 please contact us. We can get you a cloud server which starts with a base Windows 2008 R2 or a Windows 2012 instance and install it manually.

If you rather prefer SharePoint Server 2010, we encourage you get the SharePoint Server 2010 Add-On in the future. As of today, we still support SharePoint Server 2010.
