Read the text and answer the questions.
We've come across a few organisations recently who have been using open source software. We think this is a big mistake. Why? Well, there are several reasons.
First, there's the issue of cost. Many people think that open source software is cheaper than proprietary software. However, this is not true. Yes, it costs less to buy to begin with but that's not the only cost. There's also the cost of training and the cost of support. A lot of proprietary software is very common, so there are many people who already know how to use it. But open source is often unfamiliar, so additional training is required. Also, open source operating system providers often make their money by charging for support; but if you buy proprietary software, support is free.
Secondly, companies that produce proprietary software can pay salaries to their software developers. This means that proprietary software is usually better, with more features, a better-looking user interface and fewer bugs.
Finally, with operating systems, there is one major disadvantage of open source systems. Most commercial software doesn't run on open source operating systems. Open source applications for word processing do exist but for others, such as design and video editing, they are not very good. For those purposes, the industry standard is to use proprietary software.
