What we take for granted
Four things you can rely on
GDPR-compliant
Your data stays in Europe. We consistently rely on European providers and open-source platforms that you can operate yourself.
No hidden costs
Clear quotes, fixed-price options, transparent effort reports. No licence traps through proprietary platforms.
You own everything
The entire infrastructure belongs to you. Access, documentation and architecture plans – you can carry on without us at any time.
Services
Four competence areas, one point of contact
Each area covers its own field – in practice, they interlock.
01
Proxmox VE
Building, hardening and operating virtual environments based on Proxmox Virtual Environment – from a single node to an HA cluster.
02
VMware to Proxmox migration
A structured migration away from VMware ESXi – no lock-in, no licence traps, no big-bang risk.
03
Grommunio
Open-source groupware – mail, calendar, contacts, tasks. A full replacement for Microsoft Exchange, without Microsoft licensing.
04
SMS Gateway
Reliable SMS alerting for your systems – even when email and push fail but your on-call staff still have to react.
How we work
Committed, transparent, step by step
IT projects succeed when the approach remains traceable for everyone involved.
Intro call
30 minutes online via video call or phone. You describe your situation, I ask questions. You then receive an honest assessment – even if I am not the right person for the job.
Assessment
Remote session: I review your environment, document the current state and record what works and where the risks are.
Concept & quote
You receive a written concept with goals, stages, effort estimates and a fixed-price option – before anything is implemented.
Implementation
In clearly defined stages, with regular check-ins. Maintenance windows are agreed with you, downtime avoided wherever possible.
Handover
Documentation, a short briefing for your IT and an operations manual. You can then run the environment yourself – or hire me to do it.
Attitude
What shapes our work
Open source first
We prefer open-source software because it is transparent, auditable and built to last.
No licence traps
Solutions are designed so that no dependency on individual vendors arises – switching away remains possible at any time.
Lean & focused
As an owner-managed company we work without unnecessary hierarchy – direct, committed and with one clear point of contact.
Documented & traceable
Every environment is built so that it remains understandable – for us and for your company's IT.
