Why ActiveState?

Organizations look to ActiveState to provide the stability and support they need in their business initiatives that take advantage of the power of dynamic languages.

Currently, one out every four Fortune 100 corporations and a multitude of medium sized businesses, incorporate ActiveState's Business Solutions products in their critical systems.

Corporate demand for supported and indemnified open source dynamic languages is increasing. Many enterprises are now requiring that all software including open source, is backed by a trusted organization to mitigate potential liability and risk.

We can support your business critical deployments of Perl, Python and Tcl just as we do for such companies as Cisco Systems, Hewlett Packard, Credit Suisse First Boston and Siemens.

 ActiveState is on your team.

• Why Open Source?

  All software contains source code; proprietary or open source. Open source code is available to anyone that wishes to access and develop it whereas proprietary source code is tied to one entity and further development of code is restricted to only that entity. We believe that when many developers collaborate, bugs are found and fixed more quickly than in a proprietary software model resulting in better code and better software.
  
  ActiveState is firmly rooted in the open source community as supporters and contributors. Our dynamic language distributions leverage and build upon the improvements and bug fixes produced by open source developers by building fully tested, ready to install versions of Perl, Python and Tcl that are given back to the open source community to use free of charge.
