Open Source is vastly superior
When you have an Open Source project it has greater flexibility and the concept works when people contribute because they want to work on the project not something they begrudgingly are working on because it is their paycheck.

The closed source route is just to slow to change with market trends, plus you are at the mercy of the vendor to wait for a patch or well we will try to get this in the next release.

Also, with companies wanting to save money I cannot see mass license renewal of software if it is not really needed for instance 'MS Office' comes to mind.
