Enterprise ICT engineering since 2014
We don’t just deploy technology. We stay to make sure it works.
When systems go down, get attacked or can’t keep up, it costs you customers and time. TecFlax engineers fix the problem, keep your systems running around the clock, and are still here long after go-live.
Zimbra Certified Training Partner. Red Hat, SUSE, Oracle MySQL, LogicalDOC, Pentaho, NCheck, Breakpoint and Linux Professional Institute partner.
What we solve
Start with what is going wrong
You do not need to know the technology to work with us. Pick the problem that sounds familiar and we will show you how we fix it.
Services
Everything we do, grouped by what you need
Five areas, one accountable team. Every service below is delivered on site or remotely, and can be covered by round-the-clock support.
Infrastructure & Cloud
The foundations your business runs on, kept up, backed up and watched around the clock.
Cybersecurity
Protection for your people, devices and data, before an attack becomes an incident.
Business Applications
Email, documents, customers and collaboration on software your team actually wants to use.
Digital Engineering
Software, integrations and payment systems built around how your business actually works.
Support & Skills
Someone to call at any hour, and the training that lets your own team run what you own.
Accredited
We are certified by the vendors we implement
Partner status is not a badge on a website. It means our engineers are trained and examined by the vendor, and that when something breaks the answer comes from someone who has done it before.
Three of those are worth stating plainly.

Proof, not promises
Problems we have solved, and stayed with
A few of the engagements behind our reputation for mail and collaboration. Client names are withheld on this website; references are available on request.
A national public service delivery programme
The problem
Staff needed reliable email that did not depend on an in-house team to keep it running, and a spam problem kept under control.
What we did
We licensed and installed Zimbra cloud mail with anti-spam protection, and took on its support under an annual agreement.
The result
A hosted, supported mail platform with spam filtered before it reaches staff, and an engineering team that stayed on after go-live.
A financial information services company
The problem
Their open-source mail platform needed recovering, and was running on a release that had to be brought up to date.
What we did
We restored the platform and upgraded it to a current release.
The result
Mail service back in operation, on a current, maintainable version of the platform.
A national public commission
The problem
An ageing mail platform, and unwanted email reaching staff inboxes.
What we did
We upgraded their Zimbra mail platform and integrated anti-spam protection into it.
The result
An up-to-date mail platform with spam filtered before it arrives, instead of after.
A public oversight office
The problem
Mail needed moving onto a properly licensed platform that carried the organisation’s own identity.
What we did
We licensed Zimbra, migrated their mail across and branded the platform.
The result
Staff working on a licensed mail platform that looks and feels like their own organisation.
Introducing
The technologies we are building toward
These are areas we are investing in rather than services we are selling today. We would rather tell you where we are heading than claim a capability before it is real.
Why TecFlax
Engineers who stay after the system goes live
TecFlax was founded in 2014 by a team of young engineers, and that still shapes how we work: we implement what we can support, and we support what we implement.
- We stay after go-live. The engineers who build your system are the ones who support it, around the clock, so nothing gets lost in a handover.
- Straight answers. If a cheaper option would serve you better, or what you are asking for is not the right fix, we will say so before the invoice rather than after it.
- Certified engineers. Our team includes engineers registered with the Engineers Board of Kenya, alongside vendor certifications from Red Hat, SUSE, Oracle, Zimbra and the Linux Professional Institute.
- A certified training partner. TecFlax is a Zimbra Certified Training Partner and a Linux Professional Institute Approved Training Partner for the Africa region, and is registered with the National Industrial Training Authority.
- Your data, your options. Much of what we implement is open source and self-hostable, so you keep your data and licensing does not decide your architecture.
- Wherever you operate. Headquartered in Nairobi, we deliver on site and remotely for organisations wherever they are.
Tell us what is not working
Ageing servers, a mail platform nobody wants to touch, monitoring that nobody trusts, or a project that needs engineers who will still be there in a year. Start the conversation and we will come back with something practical.
