PROPRIETARY SOFTWARE *vs* OPEN-SOURCE

PROPRIETARY SOFTWARE *vs* OPEN-SOURCE

A leading bank switched from using MS Office to an open source office suite and saved about a hundred million rupees! So you too can save by using open source.
There are open source alternatives to mos

t appli cations you use every day, alth
ough they may not be well published.
You can use open source software on as many desktops, notebooks and servers as you like.
With open source, you don't have to worry about future licensing fees as it will always be free.
Open source software may require some re-leaning, but it will save you lots of pain later.
Software pirates can often end up in trouble, which can costs them a lot of money, and often more than the cost of purchasing legal software.
Be aware and get yourselves out of ignorance.

Enjoy OpenSource :)
