Planix, Inc Planix Inc. Toronto, Canada -- Corporate Profile

In a Nutshell

Planix provides UNIX system support services through maintenance contracts as well as on demand. Our expertise includes consulting, training, and programming in UNIX system and network administration, Internet setup and data integrity and security administration.

Our Principals

The senior partners combine almost a century of UNIX system experience, in a variety of business and government environments. They have established individual reputations as innovators, problem solvers, and dependable performers. Prior to coming to Planix, each has contributed significantly to the success of UNIX systems and internetworking in Toronto and beyond.

Our Principles

We readily acknowledge our enthusiasm for UNIX and open systems. Having become recognised experts in computing environments ranging from MS-DOS to MVS, we clearly understand the excellence of the UNIX environment, and we have chosen to work with it, and with clients who also value this excellence.

While we are good at fighting fires when they rage, we are also very effective at fire prevention, and early detection. We understand how a properly managed system will tend to stay out of trouble, and we offer that kind of management. We know that systems don't have a 9-5 mentality, and neither do we. We offer emergency support around the clock.

What We Do

We provide routine and emergency UNIX system support. Whether or not you have your own system administration staff, we offer our expertise as your needs dictate. We are very strong in general UNIX system administration, security and data integrity, network administration, and internet setup, maintenance, and training.

We offer consulting and system services ranging from management consulting to system and application programming, and including packaged installation and setup services, such as turnkey internet connectivity services.

How We Do It

We offer pay-by-the hour emergency support. We also provide support contracts. We start with a general assessment of your system, which identifies risks and also provides a basis for estimating the expected support workload. The support contract entitles you to routine maintenance, customised to your system configuration and management needs. It also gives you a preferential rate in case of emergency.

We monitor your systems health remotely and automatically, and we solve your problems with you or without you, on site or on-line, as you prefer.
