ITBOX

One self-hosted platform for the tools every small business needs

ITbox is Yycit's own IT platform: VPN, backups, file sharing, identity, an internal wiki, team chat, video calls, a shared calendar and remote power management, running on a server you control instead of a stack of per-seat subscriptions.

It replaces the pile of logins most small businesses accumulate, a VPN app here, a file-sharing subscription there, a separate chat and video tool, a calendar somewhere else, with one system your team logs into. It runs on hardware modest enough to sit under a desk, and once it's set up, day-to-day use doesn't require any technical knowledge: anyone comfortable with email and a web browser can manage it.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

Modules that cover the basics, without the bloat

VPN

Self-hosted WireGuard mesh VPN. One click grants access, no accounts or passwords to configure.

Backup

S3-compatible object storage as a self-hosted backup destination for your files, on infrastructure you control.

File Share

Network file sharing over WebDAV, mounts as a drive on Windows, macOS or Linux, on the LAN or remotely.

Identity

A central company directory (LDAP), managed from one Users panel that other modules build on.

Wiki

An internal knowledge base with revision history, rich text, search and per-page permissions.

Chat

Team messaging with presence and file sharing, tied to your company's own groups.

Video calls

Self-hosted video meetings, one click away from any chat conversation.

Calendar

A shared company calendar plus a personal one for every employee, subscribable from any calendar app.

Compute Mesh

Turn company computers on, off or restart remotely, even if they're powered down or frozen.

NO IT DEPARTMENT REQUIRED

Easy to set up, easy for anyone to run

One panel, plain language

Adding an employee, granting VPN access, or resetting a password is a button in a single admin panel, not a config file or a command line.

Feels like the apps people already use

Chat, calendar and video calls look and behave like the consumer apps your team already knows, so there's nothing new to train anyone on.

SERVER REQUIREMENTS

Runs on hardware you already have, or a cheap one to buy

ITbox isn't built for data-center hardware. It's designed to run comfortably on a low-power mini PC, an old office desktop, or a small VPS, whatever's cheapest for you. The only thing that scales with your business is storage, since that depends on how much you back up and share; CPU and memory needs stay modest either way.

MINIMUM
A small team just getting started (VPN, file share, chat, wiki)
2 cores CPU
4 GB RAM
60 GB, plus space for the files you store
RECOMMENDED
The full module set with everyday video calls, up to ~25 people
4 cores CPU
8 GB RAM
250 GB SSD, plus space for the files you store
WHY ITBOX

Built for businesses without an IT department

01
One server, not a stack of subscriptions

VPN, backup, file share, identity, wiki, chat, video, calendar and more in a single self-hosted platform instead of a different SaaS bill for each.

02
Modular

Turn on the modules your business actually needs. Nothing speculative running in the background.

03
You own the data

Everything runs on your own server, or one we manage for you, not a third party's cloud.

SETUP & SUPPORT
We install and run it for you

Yycit sets up ITbox on your server (or ours), configures the modules you need, and provides ongoing support, billed at the same $115–150/hour rate as our other services.
