Business Intelligence (BI) taking the lead on EOS Directory

Most active projects on EOS Directory between June and September 2009

The last three months showed again a lot of user activity on EOS Directory. Many thousands of project pages views indicate what concerns and interests the EOS Directory users most. And the winner is … Pentaho with quite a significant lead! Pentaho made approximately 4.1% of all the project page views, followed by Alfresco that seems to be able to catch up with KnowledgeTree soon. vtiger CRM made forth over the last 3 months with significant lead to rival  SugarCRM that only came in 15th.

Sixteen projects of the top 25  are business applications, ECM the most dominant. This clearly supports the trend that Enterprises more and more consider Open Source business applications as components of their IT landscapes.

The top 25 represent roughly 26% of all the project page views, the top 4 10%. While there are clear leaders on the top the distribution after rank 25 is quite flat.

So compared to earlier rankings the changes are not substantial, but the interest in good open source business applications, namely in the ECM, BI and CRM/ERP segment, is still going to increase.

We are pleased to announce new relationships with payment service providers that are friendly to the open source community.
