About Oleohub

Small business technology, made simple — helping you run your business without needing an IT department.

Who We Are

Oleohub is an independent small-business technology resource. We help small business owners and small teams run their technology with confidence — the security, cloud, software, backups and AI tools that keep a business working — without needing an in-house IT department.

Everything we publish is written in plain language, free of jargon and hype — the practical, honest guidance we would give a friend running their own business.

Who’s Behind Oleohub

Leo Baquiran, founder and editor of OleohubLeo BaquiranFounder & Editor

Oleohub is founded and edited by Leo Baquiran, a working IT professional with over 10 years of experience. Leo is an Assistant IT Manager and ITIL-certified, and has spent his career helping organisations run their technology smoothly — security, systems, software and the day-to-day problem-solving that keeps a business working.

That background shapes how Oleohub works: recommendations come from real-world IT experience and careful research — not spec sheets or press releases. Leo researches every recommendation thoroughly and tests hands-on when he has the product; when something hasn’t been tested directly, the article says so and explains what the recommendation is based on instead.

What Oleohub Covers

Our coverage focuses on the technology decisions small businesses actually face:

  • Security & privacy — protecting your business, data and customers.
  • Cloud & backups — keeping your files safe, synced and recoverable.
  • Business software & AI tools — the apps that save small teams time and money.
  • Reviews & comparisons — honest, side-by-side help to settle the “which one” question.
  • Buying guides — curated shortlists by need and budget.
  • Deals — genuinely useful savings on tools worth your attention.

Why Oleohub Exists

Small businesses face many of the same technology challenges as big companies — security, backups, choosing the right tools, staying online — but without the budget for a dedicated IT team. Most tech advice online is too technical, too salesy, or written by people who have never worked in IT.

Oleohub exists to cut through that noise. We do the slow, careful research so you can make a confident decision in minutes — and we are upfront about how we work and how we are funded.

How We Help Readers

Whatever stage of the buying journey you are at, there is a path through Oleohub designed for it. Start broad with a buying guide, narrow it down with a comparison, then read the full review before you commit.
