Answer:

True.

Step-by-step explanation:

Open source softwares are licensed softwares that are legally available to users, from the software development companies with the necessary copyright documentation. The softwares are free for users to study, enhanced and shared to other users. Examples of open source softwares are wireshark and Linux shell.

Closed, proprietary or traditional enterprise software are not free for user and are most times designed for a particular operating system platform.

The rate at which open source software use is increasing, is overwhelming and may just dethrone the use of enterprise softwares.
