MyLinuxSupport Inc. Launches Pre-paid Open Source Support Services

Open source for everyone, don't waste money on proprietary software

Countering a lack of support for open source software and opening the floodgates for businesses around the world to cut costs on software, MyLinuxSupport "> professional support services are expanding options for 24/7 technical assistance for Linux and major open source applications. The MyLinuxSupport resources make it possible for companies tightening their budgets to consider eliminating the cost of proprietary software licenses such as Microsoft Vista or expensive cloud services like Salesforce.com.

According to Chuck Garrabedian, CEO of Intelliphone, the only thing that has been holding back the adoption of open source software in my customer base has been access to support. "Now I can sell my customers open source support cards for as low as $25, and they can have access to an expert, 24-hours a day, 7 days a week. This can mean significant reductions in their IT costs."

Tom Wickline from Wine Reviews notes that reselling these cards is a great way for open source projects to help fund development efforts. Wine is a translation layer that allows software written for Microsoft operating systems to run on Linux.

The MyLinuxSupport cards are available for desktop support, server support, network support, and developer support.

According to Mylinuxsupport Inc. President Vince Corning, MyLinuxSupport supports most of the major open source projects. "Unlike some of our competitors, we have no vested interest in pushing a particular vendor's product," stated Corning. "It doesn't matter whether it's Ubuntu, Open Suse, Debian or any other major open source product. Our focus is on providing support - not on locking users and business owners into software we develop."
