Armando Urquidez asks...
Opensource Idea management software tool, which’s the best?
looking for a management tool for the Ideas and innovations process in our company, Only see a commercial ones, does any body know any Opensource if so, which one do you recomend?
Armando,
While I would suggest you use Brightidea.com for this, because of a lot of reasons, one being I am the owner of the company
the only opensource project I know in this space is: http://www.ideatorrent.org/download
Good Luck,
Vincent Carbone
Brightidea.com
Armando,
Is it more important to you that it's opensource or that it's for free? If you're looking for a free one i might come up with a short list..
cheers,
isabel
Hi Isabel,
I'm entering late on this forum but I haven't seen your short list of free idea management software. Can you give me such a list?

Dear Armando,
also have a look at BBYIDX (http://bbyidx.com). It is the software behind the "Best Buy IdeaX" idea crowd-sourcing platform (http://bestbuyideax.com) that was released as open source code (AGPL). I just came across it and haven't checked it out myself yet.
Cheers,
Christoph
Another, rather young open source idea management tool is ideaL (http://drupal.org/project/idea), which comes as a Drupal extension as well (like IdeaTorrent).
I dont know of any open source ones but there are several that offer free options:
http://www.uservoice.com http://www.feedbackroad.com http://www.userecho.com http://www.ideascale.com http://www.getsatisfaction.com
What about commercial opensource idea management tools (as well as bug reports, questions and praises) ?

@Oleg Maximoff, I have just noticed UseResponse now offers free plan. Time to give it a try! Thanks.
