WikiSuite | Alternatives

Each project is unique. And enterprise suites have so many features, and they evolve, so it's risky just to compare the feature set. Picking a project is a decision which will impact you over the long term. It's useful to understand the deep drive of each project.

All projects are unique but some are more unique than others

This is a play on the quote in Animal Farm by George Orwell:

All animals are equal,
but some animals are more equal than others

. This being said, WikiSuite is pretty special as it's the most comprehensive and integrated Free / Libre / Open Source enterprise software suite ever developed. If you are reading this, it's that you're comparing with other solutions. This page is there to help. It is a wiki page, so if something is inaccurate or incomplete, please fix it :-)

In general, the differences with other solutions are:

Other solutions	WikiSuite
Some are personal self-hosting platforms and not designed for teams.	WikiSuite is designed for teams (and you can be a team of one!)
Some are focused on facilitating self-hosting of many apps, including apps with identical functionality.	WikiSuite is self-hosted as well but it's an enterprise suite that is very opinionated about the apps that compose it. We believe supporting more than one application for the same need adds unnecessary complexity and fragmentation. Please see: http://pluginproblems.com/
Some are focused on a more narrow use case (typically around file sync or web apps)	WikiSuite offers most (80%+) of the data and information management features all organizations need: OS and Network, Web and Intranet, Email and Calendar, Files and Sync, BPM and Analytics, Commerce, Chat and Video Conference, Security.
For some, beyond ease of installation, there is little effort to provide interoperability between the apps	In WikiSuite, we are actively focusing on making all the features work well together. Ex.: A unified user experience with Bootstrap or single sign on between Openfire and Tiki Wiki CMS Groupware

Some of the others listed here are not really ready or feature complete, but are added here because they share a similar vision of a unified platform to manage most of the information of your organization, using FLOSS.
