Some People Use Computers, others Tell Them What to Do.
It began when code lived on cassette tapes and amber screens glowed like lightsabers in the night. Back then, powerful tools belonged to big companies. Applications were monoliths.
Then technology was democratized. More people could rig up their own setup. Code wasn't locked away anymore—it was shared freely, improved collectively.
Today, Open Source Solutions brings that same spirit to organizations ready to take control of their digital infrastructure. We help businesses reclaim their autonomy—with robust platforms, transparent systems, and cybersecurity that doesn't sleep.
Meet the Founder
Behind Open Source Solutions, there's a founder, Bernard Sfez, that started with a clear conviction: technology should empower, not enslave.
After years as entrepreneur, CTO, project administrator, and community builder, one truth emerged: the best tools are the ones you truly own.
As a long-time contributor and Project Administrator of Tiki Wiki CMS Groupware, Bernard experienced firsthand how collaboration beats competition. How shared code builds stronger foundations and, he built a strong global network of experts excelling in their own field.
That experience shaped a mission: help organizations achieve digital sovereignty. No vendor lock-in. No black boxes. Just robust infrastructure that serves your business and you control.
Why open source? Because freedom matters.
Not freedom as a slogan, freedom as architecture. The freedom to see what your software does, modify it when needs change, walk away from any vendor without losing your data.
Proprietary software is a ship you don't own. Someone else holds the map and can change the rules anytime.
Open source hands you the wheel. Developers and engineers build the potential—but you decide how far to take it. Use it out of the box, customize it to your needs, or push it to its limits. Your choice. Your pace.
And security? With open source, the code is auditable. No hidden backdoors. No mystery updates. Transparency isn't a weakness—it's the strongest defense.
That's not ideology. That's just good business.
Open Source Solutions is a team built on trust.
We build relations with clients, with the open source community, with the project itself.
We take time to listen and we take on the heavy lifting: deployment, security audits, continuous maintenance, optimized hosting. Enterprise-grade services without the enterprise attitude.
Through radical transparency we share progress in real-time, intervention and tasks board, protocols and documentation.
We value long-term partnerships, win-win or no deal. We don't optimize for billable hours. We optimize for your success—because that's how we measure ours.
