Merits and Demerits of Open Source Software

Abstract

Open source software (OSS) is one of the fastest growing movements towards the less budget and cheaper software. Within the technical development of the world, yet we have seen that OSS will become a viable alternative to proprietary software. The rise of open source software offers the possibility of use of a software according to the need and also to modify as per requirements. In this research paper, we describe the various merits and demerits of open source software. Today there is a great need of us to aware about the benefits of the use of open source software. The merits of open source software can be helpful to aware & familiar to use by the common man. The demerits of open source software shows us the another face of OSS coin. We should take efforts to overcome the demerits of OSS.
