Why can a business confidently choose an Open Source software product?

Yes, Open Source software products are #secure and #reliable with great support around

In my conversation with CEO/CTO of MpStyle Nicola Mazzoni, answering the question on challenges in choosing Open Software products and debunking myths

Myth to dispelled is "proprietary software is safe because I have a contact person and there is a software owner who takes care of maintenance and all development of I need "

Companies and managers do not want "freedom" but want "security, reliability, support".

it is safe because it is NOT tied to a single software house, so I have support because I can have different partners working on the same software

it is reliable because it is used by hundreds or thousands of companies and has shared source support

and at an economic level, I am "free" as "less blackmail". This is possible if there is a network of partners working on the same open source project
