Docebo suite is Open Source content management system and learning management system, both are free. Its license is the GPL 2.0 (General Public License). With Docebo suite you’ll be able to:
- Download the software for FREE.
- Modify the code
- Using the suite “as you want” (also commercial use! So you can resell it, createcommercial courses, create commercial web sites, etc…)
You haven’t to give us money for our coding work!
The only limitation is that you have to release your modified Docebo Suite with the same license (GPL). Now, we’ll answer to some question about Open Source software:
- Can I sell courses using your E-Learning system?
YES, you can!
- I’m a coder. Can I sell to one of my Clients a modified version, or an installation of DoceboLMS?
YES, you can!
- Can I use your CMS for my website, which is commercial?
YES, you can for sure!
- Is it true that the courses I put on DoceboLMS become open source, because of the license of the LMS?
NO, the didactic material can be protected by copyrights!
- I see a site that uses DoceboLMS, but its name is different. Is this legal?
YES, but you haven’t to remove Docebo credits in the source code. We would like that the icon “powered by” would be visible but this is not mandatory.
- Can I transform the Docebo open source license in a closed source license?
NO, you can’t at all.
- Can Docebo change its license and oblige me to pay?
NO, it can’t at all.
- How can Docebo makes money if its software is free?
Reading some market researches (Gartner Group 2003), only a 17% is the IT expense of a company to buy licenses. Docebo SRL sell consulting and very powerful background services, that are much more important than licenses.
