Who we are

We offer the complete, integrated Linux and Open-Source technology and service solution. We work with the world's leading commercial and public sector organisations in their use of Linux and Open-Source solutions, as the infrastructure platform for their mission critical IT systems. With over 10 year's of success in providing impartial advice, proven software and award winning service solutions we have worked with both established Linux and Open-Source users, and those interested in embracing the unique benefits that flow from their adoption.

We are advocates of Open-Standards in technology and the interoperability that flows from it. Open-Source software is not only free of charge but it embraces open standards and thereby mitigates the risk and costs associated with vendor lock-in. We use our specialist knowledge and experience to recommend solutions drawn from the enterprise-class Open-Source solutions available today. Together with complementary technologies and a customised service wrap ensuring total system reliability.

The ITIL framework provides the backbone of our operations. Our processes follow the five phases of the ITIL Service Lifecycle and we strive to maintain all our business practices compliant with BS: EN: ISO9001:2008 for our business processes, and BS: ISO/IEC 20000-1:2011 for our service desk operation.

We have an unequalled record of integrating Linux and Open-Source solutions with Microsoft and Unix technologies which has seen us become recognised as the leading authority on the commercial use of Linux. We provide solutions for the real world, based upon a deep understanding of each software component, its interoperability within the environment, and the service required to ensure system suitability, efficiency and development.

We take pride in helping our clients make more of their IT systems. It's a passion that has driven us to create the most comprehensive Linux software and service portfolio available today. A simple focus giving our products and services that extra something, making us the most popular specialist choice across the UK, and beyond. Our staff work in an open, collaborative partnership with you to understand your specific and often unique requirements enabling you to increase your IT scalability, reliability, productivity, reliability and to manage risk. This has given us a reputation for excellence from consulting and systems integration, to software resourcing and service.
