Our approach to free software

April 3, 2026

Hebeko is an engineering company. Our engineers travel anywhere in France and work remotely when the project allows. We support SMEs, mid-sized companies and public sector organizations with their infrastructure: audits, migration to open source, and day-to-day operations.

Why open source

We work with free software because it lets you see what is running, adapt it and avoid vendor lock-in. In practice, that means auditable systems, explicit technical choices and documentation your teams can take over.

On engagements, we document our work and train where it makes sense. Once the job is done, your teams run their environment without us.

How we work with you

The organizations we meet rarely start from a blank slate. Linux alongside Windows, cloud and on-premise, tools accumulated over years: that is the usual case. We adjust the pace accordingly, without forcing a big bang.

An audit may be enough to clarify the situation. Deployment may follow, or not. Once the environment is in place, you choose the level of ongoing support that suits you: on-demand intervention, regular maintenance with monitoring, or full delegation. These options combine freely with project phases. Nothing is imposed as a fixed sequence.

The blog

This blog shares technical analysis and field notes, separate from our commercial work. Topics follow infrastructure news, open source tools and regulatory constraints.

An audit to clarify where you stand

The audit costs your licences and subscriptions, flags over-broad access and proposes a step-by-step migration plan.
