Awesome open-source alternatives to SaaS

Awesome list of open-source startup alternatives to established SaaS products. Maintained by folks at

2. It has a well-known closed-source competitor, solving a similar business problem
3. It is a private for-profit company, founded in the last 10 years
4. Its repo has 100+ stars on GitHub

Add an Expo e-commerce complete project

C-Shopping-RN APP

This is a complete App developed by React Native (Expo). It is a beautiful e-commerce shopping application.

Use technology

• React Native
• Redux Toolkit
• RTK Query
• Expo Router
  -NativeWind

App open source address: https://github.com/huanghanzhilian/c-shopping-rn
Full stack open source address: https://github.com/huanghanzhilian/c-shopping

Specify OSS License

Would be nice to list the actual license these services use on their software.

Missing the Code of Conduct

This project is currently missing the Code of Conduct in the root branch. If you want to add the Code of Conduct, then I would submit a PR for that. Please let me know what do you think about that.

take a step back, is this following awesome guidelines?

despite the egalitarian ethos of open source, every author who sees this is going to push a PR, and the list is growing to the degree where i have unsubscribed.

is there a criterion for awesomeness besides competing with commercial licensed products presumably to bring in some dough by consulting and integration as an open source provider?

Contentful should have just one L in the name

The current list spells Contentful as "Contentfull"!

Add authorizer.dev

Hi,

I am the creator of authorizer.dev, open-source authentication and authorization solution. It was the product of the day on product hunt and is at 194 stars as of today.

It is an open-source alternative auth0 with the following features

• Bring your database and own the user data
• Supports all SQL databases, MongoDB, ArangoDB, and more to come in future
• Uses Graphql as the technology and built using Golang.
• It supports multiple auth recipes (social media log in, basic auth, magic link login)
• Role based access management
• Secure session management
• Multiple deployment options. Also comes with a lot of one-click deployment options which takes away the pain of managing infra.

Recommendation for addition: Concrete CMS (Formerly Concrete5)

Yeah not sure why this isn't in the list, as it's really awesome : https://www.concretecms.com

Formerly Concrete5, now called Concrete CMS (due to versioning stuff). I've been using it for many years to build websites and the devs are totally awesome! IMO worth adding, and they're super invested in it being FOSS too.

Add `GoatCounter` to the website analytics section

GoatCounter is another alternative to Google Analytics, also I think it meets the desired requirements:

• it is open source https://github.com/arp242/goatcounter with +2.3K stars;
• it is also a company https://www.goatcounter.com/;

I assume @arp242 (the author of GoatCounter) can provide furter details if needed.

Should just call it Milvus instead of Zilliz's Milvus

Thanks for including Milvus on the list. I'm a Milvus contributor and am glad to see it on the list.
But I have to point out one mistake-Milvus is an LF AI & Data's graduation project, not a Zilliz project. It should just be called Milvus instead of Zilliz's Milvus.

Reference: https://lfaidata.foundation/blog/2021/06/23/lf-ai-data-foundation-announces-graduation-of-milvus-project/

More than one category?

ClickHouse fits equally well in more than one category:

• Cloud Data Warehouse
• Timeseries Database

I want to add it to both.

Add open-source alternatives for translation management systems (transifex, lokalize, etc)

Everything is in the title
I know of weblate for example https://github.com/WeblateOrg/weblate

Thank you for including Coolify!

Hey, Andras here, maker of Coolify.

Thank you for including it on this list. It means a lot! ❤️🙏

Keep up the excellent work!

(You can close this issue. I just want to let you know about this!🙂)

Many of the listed projects/start-up are not Open Source

Hi! Just had a scan through the project list and noticed many of these are generally not considered to be "Open Source" as per the common definition.

• FusionAuth - Can't find any significant open source offering.
• Tracardi - Applies commons clause.
• Chaskiq - Applies commons clause.
• Gravitl (netmaker) - SSPL License.
• Lunatrace - Very mixed, Large portions BSL (Including lunatrace portion)
• Airbyte - Defaults to Elastic License 2.
• Memgraph - Mixed BSL and custom enterprise.
• Graylog - SSPL.
• Outline - BSL.
• Sentry - BSL.
• Uptrace - BSL.
• Castled - Can't find any significant open source offering.
• OpenReplay - Elastic License 2.
• N8N - Sustainable Use License.

I think all the BSL licenses were backed by Open Source licenses, making them a bit of a grey area, but in many cases, applying your 10-year start-up window, it does mean that the source be be non-Open-Source for half that 10 year time, then somewhat outdated for the remainder.

Is this project active?

Hi all.

I want to help, but I want to know if this project is active. Is this project active?

Google Safe Browsing alternative

Does anyone know of a FLOSS alternative to 'Google Safe Browsing'?

Add Vikunja

Hi, founder of Vikunja here.

Vikunja is a project management / to-do list application, replacing tools like trello, todoist, asana, etc. We have a for-profit SaaS version available called Vikunja Cloud.

I would love to add the project to the list, however, it does not have 100+ stars on a single repo. Main reason is probably we don't primarily use github for code, we're only mirroring the code here. If you squint a bit, you could count the stars of the frontend and api repos as one, which would push it over the 100 stars requirement.

Just putting this up for discussion, any way to add Vikunja to the list? Or should I rather wait until we hit the 100+ stars for a single repo here on github?

May be Pipedream can also be added to the list

Hi,

I find pipedream (https://github.com/PipedreamHQ/pipedream) quite interesting and have used it couple of times. May be this can be added to the list.

Issue and PR templates

Context

As a new user interested to create issues or wanting to add a new alternative to this repository, I must rely on the README provided, which is great, but I may rush and forget conditions for the solution to be added.

Solution

• Add an issue template in order to enforce users to respect a
• Add an PR template for people wanting to propose a new alternative with ticking boxes with criterias asked in the README :

Funding

I can handle this (short) issue is this is validated

Its product is strongly based on an open-source repo
It has a well-known closed-source competitor, solving a similar business problem
It is a private for-profit company, founded in the last 10 years
Its repo has 100+ stars on GitHub

It's good

Unfortunately, Modulz repo is not a tool but "An open-source UI component library" and it was acquired recently

Hi! I love what you guys are doing at RunaCapital, it helps drive awareness towards great OSS tools. I'm in the design space so I'm curious about anything relevant on that field (other than Penpot, of course). Modulz is listed as an alternative to Figma but the repo you link is about open UI components, sort of a designers toolkit, but not a tool. Their tool would be this one https://www.modulz.app/ but it has never released any alpha or beta and very recently they announced they had been acquired by WorkOS https://www.modulz.app/blog/modulz-acquired-by-workos. It doesn't look very good for the future of that tool.
I would suggest you change the description for Modulz. Do you need a specific pull-request or will you do it yourselves?

Why are you suggesting Appwrite and not Supabase?

Do you have any reason behind this or is it just random?

Plivo?

Why is Plivo on this list? I see nothing on their website to suggest they are an open source alternative. They are a SaaS business.
