UPDATED: Knowledge Worker Free/Open Source Toolbox

A few updates have been made to the Knowledge Worker Free/Open Source Toolbox, which provides a list of freeware and/or open-source alternatives to popular commercial software.

Most notably, we’ve added a very good free, open-source functional replacement for Microsoft Project to the tools list: Open Workbench.

Open Workbench is an open source Windows-based desktop application that provides robust project scheduling and management functionality and is free to distribute throughout the enterprise. When users need to move beyond desktop scheduling to a workgroup, division or enterprise-wide solution, they can upgrade to CA’s Clarity™ system, a project and portfolio management system that offers bidirectional integration with Open Workbench.

Links to Open Workbench and other open-source tools can be found at the Toolbox (hosted at Knowledge Work.)
