development effort. With Linux-it, clients get both tools and a methodology to
move to the Linux environment. It relies upon a set of scripts and tools to
achieve efficiency and productivity improvements in the process of migration.

The tool provides an integrated end-to-end solution that covers aspects like
porting analysis, effort estimation and actual migration to the target Linux
environment where any professional team can ensure that the system testing with
the new environment is completed and successfully deployed.
