# UPDATED: Knowledge Worker Free/Open Source Toolbox

Published 2006-02-27

February 27, 2006 · [Knowledge work](https://campbell-online.com/blog/category/knowledge-work/) · [Tools and techniques](https://campbell-online.com/blog/category/tools-and-techniques/)

A few updates have been made to the [Knowledge Worker Free/Open Source Toolbox](https://campbell-online.com/resources/knowledge_worker_toolbox.html), which provides a list of freeware and/or open-source alternatives to popular commercial software.

Most notably, we’ve added a very good free, open-source functional replacement for Microsoft Project to the tools list: [Open Workbench](http://openworkbench.org).

> Open Workbench is an open source Windows-based desktop application that provides robust project scheduling and management functionality and is free to distribute throughout the enterprise. When users need to move beyond desktop scheduling to a workgroup, division or enterprise-wide solution, they can upgrade to CA’s Clarity™ system, a project and portfolio management system that offers bidirectional integration with Open Workbench.

Links to Open Workbench and other open-source tools can be found [at the Toolbox](https://campbell-online.com/resources/knowledge_worker_toolbox.html) (hosted here.)
