Roberto Galoppini , self employed consultant at home The absence of a wide enterprise grade commercial support opened new opportunities, allowing firms like BlackDuck, OpenLogic, Palamida, SpikeSource and SourceLabs to offer “horizontal” services not related to a single package.

For example, firms offering intellectual assets protection take deliver assessment services for many if not all packages. Their business model might be considered “horizontal”, as opposite to the classical (vertical) business model, where a firm offers every kind of services for a single package/distribution.

These companies will play an important to role in the developing of an efficient and effective open source ecosystem. Nonetheless traditional forms of partner engagement might not work, and things like Open Source Franchising (http://tinyurl.com/2cy4f7) will definitely come to play, soon.

Are you sure you want to Yes No

Roberto Galoppini , self employed consultant at home A recent estimation of the real number of active and stable projects out there set the number to 18000, but on the other side we know the only half of top packages has enterprise support.

Roberto Galoppini , self employed consultant at home Is an Open Source Perception shift needed?

Roberto Galoppini , self employed consultant at home As results from another Gartner Dataquest graph (http://tinyurl.com/2c75ql ), the compound annual growth rate of open source software will more than quintuple that of proprietary software in the next five years. More important, the growth of the emerging phenomenon of Internal Open Source Development.

As shown by an OpenLogic study (http://tinyurl.com/2y8hcy), a quarter of interviewed customers using more than 100 Open Source products can boldly affirm that they saved more than 60% of their IT budget. While 44% of customers using about 1 open source product answered that is “too early to tell”.

Roberto Galoppini , self employed consultant at home VAR are having big trouble to sell off-the-shelf Linux distro. Besides that retain customers is not easy as soon as they get technologically autonomous.
Italian System Integrators and ISV, no matter how big they are, have no capacity to define and sell 'packaged services' (http://tinyurl.com/23vhtn) yet.

Roberto Galoppini , self employed consultant at home Open Source it is a huge market, by now.
Open-source products accounted for a 13 percent share of the $92.7 billion software market in 2006. Predictions set the percent share to 27 in 2011, when revenue is expected to be $169.2 billion. Besides that, another Gartner survey (just 295 respondents in the U.S. and Europe) found that open source software usage stood at 23.6 percent, and this number is set to grow to 25.9 percent over the next year.
