The more experience there is with the technology, and the more users bet on it, the more documented problems there will be.

In the process […]
Hello, Habr! On April 22 of this year, I wrote an article on Habr about discounts on CRM systems. At that time, I thought that price was the most important selection criterion, and everything else I could easily handle with my brains and experience as a sysadmin. The boss was expecting quick wonders from me, employees settled in to lounge around and work from home, COVID was spreading across the planet, and I was choosing a system […]

You had to find developers to create the website – especially if any deviations from the functionality of regular builders were required. If a mobile app or chatbot was also needed, it became even more complicated, and the budget just for the launch […]

If you are hearing about TCO for the first time or want to understand how to properly assess the benefits of using your own or cloud infrastructure, it's worth checking it out. When […]
This year, we started a major project to create a cyber range – a platform for cyber exercises for companies from various industries. This involves creating virtual infrastructures that are 'identical to real ones' — so that they replicate the typical internal structure of a bank, an energy company, etc., not only in terms of the corporate segment of the network. We will share more details about the banking and other infrastructures of the cyber range later, and […]
