Isn't Industrial Strength: |
Over 70% of all enterprises are currently utilizing Open Source |
No Accountability: |
Enterprise ready products are supported through well known companies |
Not Trustworthy: |
Open source is as secure as closed proprietary programs (The National Security Administration uses it). |
Quality: |
Hundreds of programmers can be involved in development of products which is not feasible for commercial software because of economic constraints |
Let OpenSource Advisors help you better understand the Open Source Community, licensing requirements, and what equivalent software is available to free you from the costs and constraints of the large software vendors.
