Well, there are many… But probably no one would argue that the first one (cost effectiveness) is getting more and more important for enterprises – especially for the small and medium sized ones… So let’s summarize them:
- Cost-Effectiveness: It’s free, reducing software acquisition costs.
- Flexibility: Code can be modified and customized to fit specific needs.
- Transparency: Source code availability promotes security and scrutiny.
- Reliability: Large developer community leads to prompt issue resolution.
- Innovation: Collaboration drives frequent updates and new features.
- Vendor Neutrality: No dependency on a specific vendor.
- Community Support: Access to forums and user groups for assistance.
- Interoperability: Adherence to open standards enables compatibility.
