Download the software we use – for free
If you’re looking for desktop applications for email, browsing, office document creation or even an entire new operating system then open the Desktop Downloads tab. Many, but not all, of these applications work very happily on a Windows desktop.
If you’re looking for server applications for website creation, CRM, systems management, accounting, stats tracking or more, then open the Server Downloads tab.
Desktop downloads
All the software listed here is free, so no more paying for licensing and updates. Updates are often a matter of one click and a password to update your desktop software.
Web: Firefox or Chrome
Email: Thunderbird or Zimbra Desktop
Office: OpenOffice or LibreOffice
OS: Ubuntu or Mint
Note: Many people using GNU/Linux tend not to bother with antivirus software as the safer design makes it much less vulnerable to malware like viruses etc. You can scan for malware etc using ClamAV and if you want a copy for Windows then that is free too: Immunet
