Open Source standards are cheaper and better.  A rare win-win.

BlotPoint uses open source software to develop projects.  Most programmed scripts use PHP as the primary programming language, and MySQL as the primary database.  Hosting environments run under Linux using Apache as the web server software.

The advantages to open source is that there is no licensing fee to use the language and there are always larger numbers of professionals who specialize in open source software development.  The savings are passed on to you.

Our hosting environments are optimized for stable, reliable, and fast server performance.
