In theory, an open source software can do better than the commercial counter part - because of the free-will and openness. But in reality, NO, the open source version DOES NOT have the same major features of the commercial product. The major features of both versions will not be the same, and the commercial version SHOULD have the "major" features that the open-source does not have in order to make money from those features. And usually, those commercial features are patented or copy-righted, the open source version cannot duplicate them in any form. Some open source even has provision agreement that it would not be commercialized!!

What is the difference between commercial software and open source software ?
An open source program is a program where the source code is freely available for developers to modify and improve. A closed source program can only be modified by the people who have the source code, (eg. The company that made the program). Examples of open source programs would be: Firefox, Google Chrome, Audacity, 7Zip, VLC Media Player, Pidgin ect. Commercial software like Microsoft Windows, Internet Explorer, MSN, Safari ect. is closed source. Also large programs such as operating systems (i.e Linux, Mac OS X) often use mixed source and/or shared source. Mixed source is where some of the program is open source and the rest is closed source. Shared source is where only developers who join a special network (usually non-free), can access the source, and only they can modify and improve the software. The major supporter of shared source software is Microsoft. Also don't get confused. Free software means it can be used without charge, it does not mean it is open source. Shareware does not mean shared source, it means it can only be used for free with fewer features and/or for a limited time (a free trial)
