I'm new to getting any certification, but have been working in general support functions for about four years. I'm intending to work on a MCSA (if my employer will help), and first want to start with CompTIA certs.

I'll take A+, but would you recommend Network+ or Server+. I believe that either will count toward the MCSA.

Go to the CompTIA site and download the specs for both certifications. I suspect that there is enough overlap that learning what is necessary for one test would give you what is necessary for sixty percent of the other.

And with both under your belt, you have that much more alphabet soup to feed your future employer.

I totally advise you to do both because both are the base for anything you will do in the future and they both count towards the MCSA.
