RDA Systems, Inc. is proud to share our blessings in the Open Source community. You will need to obtain one of two program sets, based on your operating system,  in order to download the Open Source files.

  • ZIP -  for windows systems

  • TAR-GZ - for Linux systems

 

In January 2001, RDA announced the Open Source licensing of Xpert and MicroBUDGET-GUI. This revolutionary move provides many benefits to RDA customers including:

Budget

  • Pay no license fees for the Xpert and MicroBUDGET-GUI software.
  • Pay only for support and services you need.

Control / Freedom

  • Customers have full access to the source code.
  • Ability to change programs to suit individual needs.
  • Legal -No more licensing entanglements.

Service / Support Options

  • Customers have a choice of service and support providers.

RDA made the decision to go open source based upon several factors.

  • The popularity of Open Source software is on the rise. RDA desires to be a leader in this model for governmental organizations.
  • It provides the best product for our customers through peer review and customer feedback.
  • Open Source software makes the best use of tax payer funds.
  • Programmers around the world, working on this project, reduce development costs.

Many other companies are getting involved with Open Source projects. IBM recently committed $1B to the Open Source Initiative. Sun Microsystems licensed its office productivity suite, Star Office, to Open Source. Mexico saved $124M in a purchase of student computers by choosing Open Source Software vs. proprietary software from Microsoft.

Last fall, PITAC (Presidential Information Technology Action Committee) recommended that the Federal Government support the Open Source movement. This is a great recommendation since much of the Internet's infrastructure is based upon Open Source products.

RDA feels the time has come for governmental organizations to demand Open Source Software. Please call to find out more about Open Source products from RDA. For additional information, check out the following web sites:
