In a recent report, Gartner has predicted that 90% of business technology consumers will be using open source software by 2012. When it comes to software asset management, our abilities to identify and pursue cost cutting alternative products is key to the professional abilities of life cycle managers.
Personally, I use OpenOffice for ALL my desktop productivity needs. It does everything I need it to do and the costs is, well, roughly, $300+ cheaper than the most popular alternative proprietary product.
Does your company use open source? Have you used or evaluated such products as OpenOffice? What was the experience like?
