Tailored Solutions
Back to products and services

CSITS can offer both Microsoft and/or OpenSource solutions, however we feel that in virtually all situations an OpenSource solution will offer the best value for money.

Typically our solutions are based upon OpenSource Servers with "Thin Client" terminals that are inexpensive, ultra-reliable and require minimum support. All the user’s data and settings reside on central servers giving the user their personal desktop regardless of which terminal is logged into.

There are many building blocks available from which we can build your systems. Some well-respected OpenSource applications we use are:

 

  • SuSE Linux

  • LTSP the Linux Terminal Server Project

  • KDE the powerful K Desktop Environment

  • Apache the web server that powers most of the Internet

  • SAMBA Windows compatible server technology

  • OpenOffice.org office suite sponsored by SUN Microsystems

  • GIMP for powerful graphics editing

  • CUPS high performance printing system

  • WebMin web based server management
