## Differences to Drone
Woodpecker is a community-focused software that still stay free and open source forever, while Drone is managed by [Harness](https://harness.io/) and published under [Polyform Small Business](https://polyformproject.org/licenses/small-business/1.0.0/) license.
Woodpecker is a community-driven open source software published under the Apache License 2.0 and will always remain so. Drone CI is managed by [Harness](https://harness.io/) and is available in two editions: [Open Source under Apache License 2.0 and Enterprise under Polyform Small Business license](https://docs.drone.io/enterprise/#is-drone-open-source).
In terms of Drone's feature set, Woodpecker is somewhere between [Drone Enterprise and OSS](https://docs.drone.io/enterprise/#what-is-the-difference-between-open-source-and-enterprise), but also has some unique features.
