Complementary Software Linux | itfasilkom.blogspot.com

Many things to consider when we begin to use open source (Linux) include:

• Preparation: that is by listing all the software and hardware, then do the installation.
• Implementation: create procedure (SOP), such as data backup, training how to use Linux.
• Help desk: build a sense of togetherness and mutual help

The following I include a variety of open source software that has same functionality in existing software in the Windows Operating System:
