Open Source

At Trucom, we have Engineers seasoned in the building and deployment of mission critical enterprise open source systems. We believe that Information Service is for everyone, big or not, and we understand that you do not deserve to be punished for starting up, neither do you need to be punished for your successes. Look at it this way: A startup company does not need to invest in infrastructure that it doesn’t currently needs only to support a simple service it needs and at the same time we understand that your company should not be burdened with hefty license costs simply because you are getting more customers or you have employed more hands.
Our research has highlighted that there are very few companies that have been bold enough to migrate from proprietary operating platforms and applications to open source platforms and applications. We have also realized that there are some companies that have resolved to reverse migrate from open source to proprietary systems. This new phenomenon of reverse migration, for the case of Botswana, is twofold. For some companies the reverse is necessitated by lack of adequate support in the market and hence rightly perceived to be a business risk. For some companies, the initial migration was due to budgetary limitations and after sufficient growth these companies adopt more restricting or well supported platforms. Those companies that have not migrated yet have varying reasons including the same support issue and a few related to maturity and security of open source products.

Due to the foregoing exposition, we at Trucom have decided to offer you world class support for open source and open source based products. This support includes training, planning, development, deployment and user support.
