IT Help for Small, Practical Projects

Considering an open-source tool or need help with a Linux system? Start with a task that can be clearly scoped, tested and documented.

Areas to discuss

  • Linux setup and troubleshooting.
  • Planning a move to an open-source or self-hosted tool.
  • Network configuration and connectivity problems.
  • Backup options and recovery instructions appropriate to the project.
  • Documentation, SOPs and repeatable workflows.
  • A straightforward business website.

Move carefully

A migration needs more than a new application. We’ll look at compatibility, data export, backups, access and maintenance. A small trial can show whether a change is worthwhile before you depend on it.

Define the support

Follow-up maintenance can be discussed separately. Availability, responsibilities and response expectations need written agreement. FOSSadmin is not a 24/7 help desk or emergency incident-response service.
