FAQ

How does delivery work for a monthly retainer?

This isn't a one-off build delivered on a fixed clock — it's a recurring monthly service. The quoted hours cover a typical month of help-desk volume for a mid-size team; support requests are actioned the same business day, with genuine incidents handled as they come in.

How does this differ from The Walk-Through Support?

Same delivery model — live, screen-share, no remote control — but this is staffed specifically for Linux technical depth: package management and config-level work that a generalist support team isn't equipped to do.

What's not covered?

Hardware needing physical access (a failed drive, a broken screen), systems outside what we operate, and your bespoke internal applications unless we've been separately trained on them.

Can the retainer size change as our team grows?

Yes — this is billed monthly against team size, not a fixed-term contract, so the hours scale up or down as your headcount changes.
