Open-source migration (per employee)

Move each employee from paid desktop software to open source: Omarchy or another Linux desktop, office suite, mail and files, with training before and after the switch.

Open source

What is included

  • Inventory of the software, file formats and devices each person uses today
  • Desktop migration to Omarchy or another Linux desktop (Ubuntu, Fedora), on the existing hardware where it is supported
  • Office suite (LibreOffice, ONLYOFFICE or Collabora), mail, calendar and contacts set up and your files moved across
  • Training before the switchover: short sessions by role, with a printed one-page guide
  • Cutover support on the day, then two weeks of post-switch support and training
  • A pilot group first, so problems are found with five people, not fifty

What stays the same

Your people keep their files, their mail and their routine. What changes is the software underneath and the licences you stop paying for.

Hardware

Not included. Most computers from the last several years run Linux well. We check your devices in the inventory and say which ones need replacing.

Delivery

Pilot group in 2 to 3 weeks; the rest in waves of 10 to 50 people, typically 6 to 12 weeks in total.

Good to know

Will every file open exactly as before?

Plain documents, spreadsheets and PDFs convert well. Complex macros, heavily formatted templates and some proprietary formats can differ. We test your real files in the pilot and tell you what needs work before the cutover.

Does the price include applications such as accounting or CAD?

No. Each business application is converted separately; see Application conversion (per application).

What if some people must keep Windows?

Then they stay on it. A few people on a legacy tool is a normal outcome, and we plan for it.

Application conversion (per application)

One business application moved to an open-source or custom replacement: accounting or ERP, CAD, design, camera management, trading or another line-of-business tool.

Typically 3 to 10 weeks per application, depending on its data and integrations
