About Dexterity Systems

You shouldn't have to rent your own technology.

My name is Jord, and I started Dexterity Systems because I was tired of watching people get locked into subscriptions they don't need. After years of working tech support at O-Net (before it was acquired by Telus), I saw the same pattern over and over: perfectly good hardware thrown away, businesses trapped paying monthly fees for basic tools, and everyone's data sitting on someone else's server.

Too many people get told to "just buy a new one" when their device has years of life left. Too many small businesses pay $50/user/month for cloud services they could own outright. Too many folks hand their data to Big Tech because nobody showed them the alternative. I wanted to change that.

Why "Dexterity"?

The name comes from Dexter, my 15-year-old cairn terrier. He's been with me through everything. Cairn terriers were bred to hunt vermin in the Scottish Highlands, which means they're stubborn, resourceful, and loyal to a fault. They don't give up on a problem until it's solved.

Dexter: 15 years old, extremely good boy, and the best coworker anyone could ask for.

That's the kind of service I want to provide. Loyal. Persistent. Won't quit until you actually own your stuff. I'm not here to sign you up for another subscription - I'm here to help you cancel the ones you don't need.

Digital Sovereignty

I believe in ownership. Real ownership - not "you can use this until we change the terms of service" ownership. Your files should live on hardware you control. Your business data shouldn't sit on a server in Virginia. Your software shouldn't stop working because you missed a payment.

Dexterity Systems operates under Bill C-244 (the Right to Repair Act) and Bill C-294 (Interoperability), which protect Canadians' rights to fix their own technology and access independent services. Manufacturers shouldn't get to decide when your device becomes e-waste, and cloud providers shouldn't get to hold your data hostage.
