How We Got Here
Back in 2018, I was working as a systems administrator for a mid-sized marketing agency. Every week brought new server issues — sudden traffic spikes crashing websites, backup failures discovered too late, security patches that somehow broke everything else.
The breaking point came during a Black Friday weekend when three different client sites went down within hours of each other. While scrambling to fix everything, I realized the real problem wasn't technical complexity — it was the gap between what cloud providers offer and what businesses actually need.
"Most companies don't need cutting-edge infrastructure. They need reliable systems that work consistently without requiring a full-time DevOps team."
That insight became the foundation of laptopgood. Instead of chasing the latest trends, we focus on building stable, manageable cloud environments that business owners can actually understand and trust.
