Course Description:

'' This 1-day masterclass is for IT Strategy Managers and IT budget-holders. It explains easy-to-implement, practical, ways to drastically cut your organisation s IT expenditure. It is based on extensive experience working with organisations which are actively deploying Open Source. It takes an independent, vendor-neutral, approach, based on the unique knowledge of the presenter and his company.

No one makes money selling software that is free. So there are no expensive Open Source marketing campaigns. In fact the reverse is the case. Those who see Open Source as a threat are running campaigns that spread Fear, Uncertainty & Doubt. It is the role of each IT manager to gain a clear, independent, understanding of the issues of Open Source Software and how best to exploit this technology.

Open Source offers a credible alternative to proprietary software. The vendors response to the threat of Open Source is ¡®to make offers that cannot be refused¡¯. For those organisations that simply want to use Open Source to negotiate realistic software license deals that¡¯s fine, provided they first get support in developing the winning arguments to use. This masterclass shows you how.

Our master classes are always highly interactive and challenging. They deal with the strategies that should be considered when moving to Open Source. How to enable a secure, vendor neutral, infrastructure. How to build a flexible IT infrastructure that meets your organisations changing business needs.

The presenter is Eddie Bleasdale who has been working with Unix, and now Open Source, since 1980.
