Linux Migration
Small businesses and home users dismayed at the prospect of being forced to move to the latest Windows desktop, due to its associated hardware upgrade costs and poor performance, might consider moving to Linux instead as a viable alternative - and we can help do just that. Linux is free from expensive site licensing (install on as many PCs a you want at no cost) and does not fall victim to viruses and spyware like Windows systems.


Linux runs well even on older PC hardware, which means businesses can avoid having to purchase all new desktop PCs. All of the major Linux distributions include free file and print servers, website and email servers and clients, office productivity applications, development toolsets and utilities. A business might save from 1,000 to 2,000 euro per seat by moving to Linux! They can even keep their existing Windows file servers if they wish, integration is no problem.


The best part of running a Linux desktop (instead of Windows) is that you never have to pay for software EVER AGAIN. Every program you could ever need can be downloaded and installed with a few clicks of the mouse. It's that simple!

Replacement for Windows sticker, free with every install! Linux also provides home and business users with the opportunity to completely "lock down" the system - turn it into a shop-friendly web kiosk, or a video games only machine for the kids (think 'cheap games console'). Customisation is what Linux is all about.

Please contact us if you'd like us to know more about switching over to Linux from Windows. We have already provided this service to over 50 happy customers (mostly using Ubuntu Linux), and are actually happy to say that they never come back (at least for desktop support!).
