L) Is a software method as good as a KVM Switch?

KVM technology gives you out-of-band control of servers as if you were directly connected. This means faster control without digital overhead, no drain on Server resources and Network bandwidth and full access to BIOS level with the ability to reboot. You also have increased security for the servers as there is no physical connection to this access level that can be hacked. Furthermore, on certain models Users access rights can also be restricted.
