In the open source argumentation side, if the project succeeds, then we may have additional contributions from other developers world wide. But, is that a real pro? For a line-of-business project? Who's going to contribute since the target audience is generally companies instead of individuals? Another pro is that we may have more visibility, maybe faster than if we made it closed source.
In the closed source side, there is the pro of making it more profitable... but maybe this is just a misconception? That's the question. Is it easy to sell components these days, or is it easier to sell services only, and not worry about payd license?

What business model do you recommend us? Advices are very very welcome! And I'll be greatful forever =D
Thanks!
