Linux for everyone: home, business and the enterprise.

Linux already runs most of the internet, every one of the world's fastest supercomputers and the Android phone in your pocket. It is free, secure and built by a worldwide community. We help people and companies make it theirs.

Why Linux

Six reasons people and companies switch.

๐Ÿ’ธ

No licence fees

Use it on one computer or a thousand without paying per seat. The money goes into your business instead.

๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ

Secure by design

Careful permissions, fast security updates, and far less malware aimed at it.

๐Ÿ”ง

Older computers, new life

Linux runs well on hardware other systems have left behind, so machines last years longer.

๐Ÿ”“

Your data stays yours

Open file formats and no forced cloud accounts. You decide where your files live.

Runs for years

The same system that keeps web servers up for years at a time, on your desk.

Our recommendation

Moving a business to Linux, calmly.

A simple plan we recommend to every company that asks.

1

Start with one computer

Try Linux on one machine and one person first. Learn what works before changing everything.

2

Keep files in open formats

Documents, spreadsheets and pictures in open formats open anywhere, today and years from now.

3

Move the web and email first

Websites and email are where Linux is strongest, and they are the easiest to move without anyone noticing.

4

Show people, then switch

An hour of showing someone around their new desktop saves a week of questions.

5

Keep a way back

Keep the old system ready until the new one has proved itself. Then retire it.
