{{< faq "Am I allowed to copy the data?" >}}
For personal use you may copy this knowledge base to your own systems. For commercial use you may consult it by visiting this website.

`wget -np -r https://kennisbank.start-it.nl`

{{< faq "What rights does StartIT have over the software?" >}}
None at all. All mentioned software is owned by their respective creators, according to their licenses.

{{< faq "Why is the knowledge base publicly available?" >}}
Our customers can choose to sign a service agreement, but this is not required. For those who prefer to handle maintenance themselves, or even want to perform a full deployment on their own, this information is available publicly.

Another reason is that we are convinced of the value for companies to keep their IT under their own control, something that is not always possible with various SaaS solutions, such as Office 365. The information on this site enables those companies to try a first step themselves without having to make a large upfront investment.

{{< faq "What does StartIT actually do?" >}}
We build websites, cloud environments, administrative systems and custom solutions for businesses. By using only open source software we can be transparent about how the systems work and what they do.

Many of our installations include customizations, which we hand over to the client as source code upon delivery.
