First and foremost, InfoWorld looks at the actual open source software, applying the same criteria we use to evaluate commercial products and choose our Technology of the Year award winners (our annual picks for best products). We are looking for open source software that solves an important business or IT problem and meets the highest standards of discerning IT organizations. In general, our evaluation criteria include suitability to task, manageability, scalability, ease of use, performance, security, adherence to relevant open standards, and overall capability.
