Open Source Technology

The open source technology ideal offers non-licensed, readable source code that can be enhanced by anyone to obtain maximum benefits. Lighthouse is committed to using open source solutions whenever possible.

Why Use Open Source?

A singular cost of ownership with no hidden fees allows clients to implement stable open source technology onto any platform with capabilities to transport from one platform to another, rather than traditional solutions that dictate use of specific software and one platform. With open source, 100 percent of fees paid to Lighthouse go to the development effort, not to licensing fees. With no licensing fees involved, the solution also provides the opportunity for a great return on investment. Furthermore, open source platforms offer increased security and stability over their traditional counterparts.

Lighthouse supplies its clients with a package of information that can be used for any future modifications that may be necessary.
