Low Cost Enterprise systems

Low Cost Enterprise systems

BSC Consulting UK started the financial New Year with a Key note prediction. It forecasts a new market emerging in low cost enterprise services wrapped around opensource.Financial pressures in the market place are helping to form a commercial environment where established full service operators will be outbid by low cost start ups or established operators offering specific low cost services. It forecasts the demand for open source software and services will be increased in 2011/12 similar to what we have seen in the airline industry targeting small to medium sized companies trying to establish a competitive low cost structure.
