Aethernet Services

In keeping with our approach to small business IT (see About us), we provide a range of managed services to reduce the burden of running things in house.

All our services are housed in our state-of-the-art Datacentre and benefit from our extensive support network. All our services share a centralised authentication platform, which means a common username and password for you. In addition, with every service comes Aethernet's efficient and congenial support.

ThunderbirdEmail is a vital tool for any small business. Aethernet concentrates on providing a high quality, low hassle service at a low price.  We use IMAP, which is the best open, standards-based email protocol around, and we impose no unnecessary limits on our accounts.

We designed the online backup service to eliminate the three biggest and most common failings of backup routines in small businesses (assuming there is one of course, there is one, isn't there?!)

Source control
svn source controlSource control is at the heart of any software business. We won't explain what source control is here, you know if you need it. We use subversion, which is designed to be a compelling replacement for the grandfather of source control systems, cvs. Subversion succeeds in overcoming most of the shortcomings of cvs and is the widely considered the best open source revison control system available.

Domains and websites
Despite considerable oversupply in this market, most customers ask us to offer domain and website hosting so that they can keep everything under one roof (one support contract and one bill). So, here they are.

Collaboration services - coming soon
Shared calendaring, contacts and similar services will be available quite soon.  We've settled on the technology that we'll be using (http://www.kolab.org/), but there's some more work to be done before it's ready.
