At the heart of Europe

“Europe has a better affinity for open source, it's more interested in it than the US so there is a natural pull to us.”

LARRY AUGUSTIN LONG TIME OPEN SOURCE INVESTOR & CEO OF SUGAR CRM

(Interview with Computer Business Review - 25 Novemb er 2010)

“I don't think we get quite the same level of accep tance of the open source business model in the US as we do in Europe, it's very widely accepted in Europe. You often see mandates where an open source solution must be considered. That works for us well .”
