Thinking About Outsourcing
Your Linux Support?

Here’s Something I Bet You Didn’t Think About…

Linux-based servers are hands-down the most robust and affordable solutions for organisations of any size.

And with an almost unlimited quantity of open source software programs available, you could save hundreds of thousands of dollars in licensing and support fees.

But if every cloud has a silver lining, it makes sense that every silver lining has a cloud, right?

And in the case of Linux, that cloud is support.

Linux can be a bit of a beast to manage. And while all that open source software gives you the safety of having source code available, that safety comes with risks.

After all, if anyone in the world can access source code, anyone who cares to can write exploits like backdoors and other nasty things you definitely don’t want running on your network.

And then there’s the documentation. When you pay thousands of dollars to license software from a company like Microsoft, you expect to get 24/7 support and top-notch documentation. Well, you don’t always actually GET it, but you darn sure do expect it.

Unfortunately, that’s not always the case with open source. Some of the most-used packages out there have a “need to create documentation” comment in the read.me file.

And don’t expect to log into some fancy help desk when you have a problem. Nope; it’s probably not going to be there.

Don’t go thinking that we’re trying to talk you out of Linux.

We LOVE Linux. In fact, providing world-class Linux support is what we’re all about.

That’s why we went through the bother of naming this site Linux-Support.Com.Au.

The Linux Support part is what we do, and the AU is where we do it. In fact, we’ve been providing outsourced Linux support to Australian businesses and organisations for more than 8 years. And our clients think we’re pretty good at it.

So whether you’re thinking about converting to Linux, or your Linux support needs have outgrown your internal IT staff, or your outsourced Linux support company is better at delivering excuses than they are results, you should talk to us.

You Name It. If It’s Linux – We’re On It.

You Know – It Looks Like The Only Thing We’re NOT Supporting Is You!

But that’s easy to fix. All you have to do is contact us and we’ll give you a free, no obligation consultation and in-depth review of your existing Linux environment. And if you don’t have an existing Linux environment, but you’re wishing you did, we’ll give you some great advice to get you headed in that direction.

Want To Know A Secret?

Most Linux support companies know that managing a Linux environment is like living in a puzzle palace. They take advantage of their clients by low-balling incident support estimates and then billing every second that goes by on the clock until they run the actual tab up far beyond what you thought you were going to pay.
