What can Linux do for you?

Without a doubt the most attractive feature of the Linux alternative, is the cost of licensing the software. Most companies are acutely aware of the associated costs of running Microsoft Windows Small Business Server and the cost of the additional licensing fees for employees within the company to take advantage of it’s features. Linux is FREE and Open Source! This means that you do not pay licensing fee’s to use the software, neither do you pay on a per user basis for employees to take full advantage of the servers features.
