Open Source vs. Proprietary Software, Part 1

The Intranet Journal has a conside article comparing open source and proprietary intranet software.  T It is set to be a three part series, and atleast this first part is general enough to be applicable to most OSS vs. non-free choices.

The article covers the pros and cons in terms of:

  • Freedom from “The Man”
  • Cost of ownership
  • Experienced support communities
  • Software customization
  • Product longevity

So if you need to convince someone to go with OSS instead of proprietary, take a look.
