Just wanna know if there’s anyone managing and supporting a company-wide linux desktop deployment.

What are the hurdles during first adoption phase, what day to day support is like and which software are being used?

    Google.

    They have really good support people, much of the resources are shared with their infrastructure, they have their whole internal software ecosystem.

      The question was about small to midsize companies though…

        K, my current startup then, though it’s a mix of Linux and Mac and the support is just weird really, mostly we just help each other over slack.

      Forgot to mention it’s a non-tech company.

      I just wanna know if there’s any small company running mostly Linux ecosystem with some IT governance like LDAP-based authorizations and policies. There are probably clients of companies like red hat doing that, but I think they might be giant corps.

        Doubtful there are many, at that scale you often outsource it and those firms do the bare minimum of mail and windows support, Linux experience is harder to come by.
