New week start. Interesting prompt related to free and open source software. Take a look on a quite impressive list of open/free BPM suites (thanks Process Cafe for links).

Free BPM and Process Modeling Tools:

BizAgi Process Modeler
Questetra BPM Suite
Tibco Business Studio
Aris Express (soon to be released)
Process Maker
Open ModelSphere
Visual Paradigm – Smart Development Environment (Community Edition)
Visual Paradigm for UML (Community Edition)

Now, my question is why we don’t see more PLM tools in Open Source, Free or Freemium models?

Have a good week! Best, Oleg
