The software is usually free
Open source software is usually free and open for anyone to use. Developers create it for the good of the web community.

With access to the core code, you can customise and modify your website to your heart’s content. The possibilities are endless.
No vendor lock in
You won’t have to worry about being locked in with a particular vendor, who can charge whatever they like. The software is yours.
Constantly evolving
Open source software is updated on a frequent basis and tends to experience far less bugs and security threats than proprietary software, as developers around the world are constantly working on it.
