Open Source Software Training

Whatever your business or organisation, the chances are that you can save money and exploit new opportunities by using open source software. Open source software is software you are free to use however you like. This means you don't have to pay for each copy that you use. If it is helpful you can install it on all your computers and give copies to every member of staff (or all the users of your organisation).

If you do not know what software is available or how to use it, the fact that it is free will make no practical difference to your organisation. Once the knowledge of how to use the software is in your organisation, the software becomes free for everyone. This gives your business the edge (competitors will still have to factor high software costs into the price of their services and products).

Open Source software allows you to give a tool for every job to every person. According to their needs and abilities they can learn to use some and neglect to use others. You do not have pay for the products they do not use and you do not have to pay for the products they do use (it could save you thousands of pounds). This allows you to do many tasks in house that you would normally out source, because you take advantage of the hidden talents of your present staff.
