A free team for a day, a world first Open-Source Indemnification program, and a greatly expanded specialist service and technology offering are just some of the highlights on LinuxIT's new web site at www.linuxit.com.
As part of LinuxIT's commitment to assisting the private and public sector in adopting Open-Source technology they are offering free consultations for up to five organisations, new to the world of Open-Source. These provide an impartial and informed view of the scope that exists for them to embrace the advantages that flow from the adoption of Open-Source technologies, enterprise and or community based, together with a roadmap outlining how best this could be achieved. Aimed at those who haven't used an Open-Source, Open-Standards blended systems specialist before, or for a while, the team comprises a sector director, technical architect plus sandwiches and coffee. Free of charge or obligation the aim is to analyse organisations business requirements and current IT systems strategy and present tailored Open-Source solutions, and a pathway to their delivery.
Another innovation is LinuxIT teaming up with a leading global insurance-based financial services company to pioneer a program to underwrite community based Open–Source software via our extensive verification process. Based upon a LinuxIT Service Level Agreement (SLA) and an accredited technology catalogue, this unique program provides complete peace of mind for those wishing to embrace the benefits of adopting Open-Source software.
The site also features an expanded professional services offering based around the ITIL services lifecycle, an animation highlighting The Open Opportunity, new white papers and access to their popular industry newspaper 'The Linux Advantage'.
Commenting on the new site CEO Peter Dawes-Huish said: 'We are a service business and our new web site is there to provide a service to our many clients and those who are looking to embrace the advantages of Open-Source technology and associated services such as improved interoperability, lower costs, reliability, security and scalability. Interest in Open-Source is on a wave and site visitors now exceed 5,000 per month, we are determined to provide them with the ultimate Open-Source one stop shop.'
