SA group supports open source software

A South African network services and computing solutions developer has been appointed support and distribution partner for NoMachine's NX server and business software solutions.

QV Technologies, based in KwaZulu-Natal, will sell and support the Linux-based products, both nationally and in the rest of the African continent, says QV director Per Qvindeslad.

He explains that the NX server solution allows users to avoid expensive licences, as it is only necessary to backup, upgrade and maintain one machine instead of several that have the same software packages installed.
