Crossbone Systems

On Friday I launched a brand new service for anyone running Unix or Linux web servers that could use some operating system support. Here’s the full press release - feel free to spread the word and post it around.

Cambridge start-up offers 24/7 Unix & Linux system support

Crossbone Systems announced on Friday the immediate availability of a complete operating system incident support package designed to assist with emergencies and skills gaps in companies with Unix or Linux servers.

At Business Startup 2008, founder Lee Mallabone elaborated: “Our support packages are available from our website right now. Customers can browse our service descriptions and get a clear picture of the support that is on offer. We’re pleased to announce a service that they can activate themselves immediately, giving instant protection to any ailing servers that may have been previously neglected.”

The support service, which is available in Standard, Silver and Gold packages, starts at just £499/month for email and telephone support during office hours. Companies who have found Unix specialist staff to be too expensive or hard to retain will find this solution particularly cost-effective. For companies that need a 24/7 protection, Silver and Gold packages are available and expand to include remote login protection for when your technical resources are already working to their limit.

Supporting your servers

Commenting on the announcement, founder Lee Mallabone said, “We’re incredibly pleased to be able to draw on our expertise and offer local businesses the protection and peace of mind they need to run Web 2.0 businesses. Today’s announcement is just the beginning, and Crossbone Systems will be releasing more products and services targeted at web and start-up businesses later in the year”.
