The power of open source

Openness: The power of collaboration and communication

The very essence of open source lies in its open nature. The technologies are naturally easy to adopt and integrate into the IS so that the systems communicate more easily.

Sovereignty: be free and adapt the solution to your needs

With open source, freedom is in your hands. You are not dependent on a proprietary solution to develop your strategy. You also have the power to choose and build the features that fit your exact needs and business processes, without compromise.

Opportunities: make them an asset for your organization

From GAFAM to SMEs, hundreds of companies and public organizations rely on open source to build tailor-made technological assets which become assets for the company and promote its competitiveness.

Innovation: catalyze creativity

Innovation is at the heart of open source’s DNA. By leveraging collective contributions and diversity of talent, open source projects constantly push the boundaries of creativity, in a dynamic ecosystem where innovative ideas are constantly nurtured.

Stability: solid foundations for growth

Stability is the cornerstone of all digital success. Open source solutions, developed and tested by committed communities, offer proven stability and are by nature sufficiently flexible to integrate with the information system (IS) in order to build lasting digital experiences.

Safety: Top priority

Open source Solutions, thanks to their collaborative nature, benefit from constant vigilance. Communities work together to quickly identify and resolve vulnerabilities, providing a level of security that often exceeds proprietary solutions.
