One of the reasons is written on the home page you are posting from
(www.pbgc.com): "working together to guarantee your future"

Software that only uses non proprietary formats and protocols is
future-proof: your documents remain yours forever, you don't have
to pay to read them again ten years later. And you upgrade only
when you decide it, not when some private company decides it needs
to boosts dividends again.

Hope this helps,
