From Wikipedia
The open-core model is a business model for the monetization of open-source software to which a for-profit company provides significant development support. The open-core model primarily involves offering a "core" or feature-limited version of a software product as free and open-source software, while offering paid versions or add-ons as proprietary software. The term was coined by Andrew Lampitt in 2008. The concept of open-core software has proven to be controversial, as many developers do not consider the business model to be true open-source software. Despite this, open-core models are used by many open-source software companies.
