Survey: 98 Percent of Companies Use Open-Source, 29 Percent Contribute Back

In a survey released earlier this month by Accenture, it was found that two-thirds of all participating organizations intend to ramp-up their open-source investments in 2010. The number dovetails nicely with survey results released a few days ago by Zenoss, an open-source software developer, which note that 98 percent of all enterprise companies are using open-source software in some capacity.
