The open source software is freely designed for public use. Source cods are given along with this type of soft ware. The user can alter this according to needs. The greatest benefit of this type of software is that many debugging tools and instructions are given along with the software and source codes that the user could easily modify it according to the business needs and preferences. These are easy to use, update and upgrade as well as practicable.

Most of large business organizations with sensitive data and lots of information finds this type of software unreliable, as the administration of these type of companies or businesses think that these type of software could easily be changed, modified and have less security and any one can use them because they are for general public thus every one knows about how to use them. These open sources have lack of support, no proper roadmap toward successful business operation.
