Trust our reliable technicians for Unix System Administration Services near you cheaper.
Since technology is changing all the time, we keep up-to-date with what is new in computing and pass that knowledge on to you to ensure you are keeping pace with what your competitors may have to offer. However, we still maintain the ability to support older systems as well, some Unix-based servers are an example of these older machines.
Unix is becoming rarer, and Unix servers might be becoming an endangered species. There are still several different versions of Unix and Unix-based operating systems in the wild today.
Here are some of the versions you might see running in an office somewhere:
With Unix systems not so common anymore, it can be a challenge to find a service provider that supports Unix-based computer systems. While many technical service providers don't support Unix, some do. Many IT Support Businesses don’t have Unix System Administrators in-house, we do. We have in-house UNIX system administrators who have experience with a variety of Unix operating systems, and file systems.
Over the years of Providing Compliance Services and Network Security Services for a variety of different clients- we've heard several complaints about previous providers. In many instances, it’s not the fault of the service providers in question.
Oftentimes, the client’s dissatisfaction is due to the nature of One-Man Service Shops, or Two-Person Tech Companies. Companies with this type of structure can’t deliver and scale an operationally mature service model unless-they have only several clients.
Two of the most common issues are pricing and reliability:
Reliability. Sometimes clients have complained about the lack of reliability for smaller service providers offering Unix support services. It can be important to find a service provider with a robust offering, one you can rely on, to build a relationship over time. The reason is -you may need this service provider to perform additional services later on. Race is Different.
Pricing. Many clients have complained about high prices, sometimes it’s on account of hourly fees. Independent Contractors may charge reasonable hourly rates in some cases, but when they rely on service hours to make a living, their goal is to bill as many as possible.
In many instances, Independent Service providers might be a Jack of All Tech Trades type of Tech. You may end up with a general Computer Technician rather than a UNIX system administration expert. Race is Different.
Our expertise in UNIX technology enables us to provide technical support, server support, network support and managed backup services for most Unix-based systems. Our goal is to ensure that your computer systems are running at peak performance by correcting issues as quickly and as smoothly as possible.

This Tech Team interacts strategically with our Service Distribution Network for onsite services. Our onsite service providers are “boots on the ground” support agents who can take instructions from our management team on projects or on dispatched service.
This enables us to effectively serve this market niche on a nationwide level. For a Unix support service that you can rely on, Race Computer Services is oftentimes a good fit. We can set up and maintain all your UNIX-Based computer systems, whether they are onsite, in a data center, or hosted in a cloud platform.

Unix (/ˈjuːnɪks/; trademarked as UNIX) is a family of multitasking, multiuser computer operating systems that derive from the original AT&T Unix, whose development started in 1969[1] at the Bell Labs research center by Ken Thompson, Dennis Ritchie, and others.[4] Initially intended for use inside the Bell System, AT&T licensed Unix to outside parties in the late 1970s, leading to a variety of both academic and commercial Unix variants from vendors including the University of California, Berkeley (BSD), Microsoft (Xenix), Sun Microsystems (SunOS/Solaris), HP/HPE (HP-UX), and IBM (AIX). In the early 1990s, AT&T sold its rights to Unix to Novell, which then sold the UNIX trademark to The Open Group, an industry consortium founded in 1996. The Open Group allows the use of the mark for certified operating systems that comply with the Single UNIX Specification (SUS). Unix systems are characterized by a modular design that is sometimes called the "Unix philosophy". According to this philosophy, the operating system should provide a set of simple tools, each of which performs a limited, well-defined function.[5] A unified and inode-based filesystem (the Unix filesystem) and an inter-process communication mechanism known as "pipes" serve as the main means of communication,[4] and a shell scripting and command language (the Unix shell) are used to combine the tools to perform complex workflows. Unix distinguishes itself from its predecessors as the first portable operating system: almost the entire operating system is written in the C programming language, which allows Unix to operate on numerous platforms.[6] Source: Unix - Wikipedia www.racecs.com/it-faq-and-glossary/what-is-unix
We don’t always require a longer term support contract, but it can help us lower project or consulting pricing significantly. In certain cases, ongoing services are more of a requirement. It depends on your business needs.
