💬 Questions We Get

“Isn’t this just KVM?”

Sort of! KVM is the core, sure—but we’re the puzzle-solvers that turn raw parts into a full-blown, enterprise-ready, no-lock-in infrastructure. Proudly built on KVM, but way more than just KVM.

“Can I customise everything?”

Absolutely. We give you full access and documentation to tweak, tune, or completely overhaul anything.

“What if something breaks?”

Our stack is built to be understandable. We’ll help you debug—or document how to fix it yourself.

“What about support?”

We offer it—or help you build confidence to run it solo.
