Proprietary Products
The following is a list of proprietary software products that the directory uses as a point of comparison for open-source alternatives.
«Proprietary» describes the license rights, not the price. Such products may offer free or paid plans. Paid open-source software, by contrast, does not belong on this list just because of its price.
The directory's entry page lists all categories so you can browse the open-source products by category.
