Abstract Computer-Aided Dispatch (CAD) systems are the technological backbone of emergency services, logistics, and transportation industries. Traditionally, these systems represent a significant financial investment, often placing them out of reach for volunteer organizations, small municipalities, and developing regions. This paper explores the ecosystem of "free" CAD software, distinguishing between proprietary freeware and open-source solutions. It analyzes the architectural requirements, reviews prominent existing projects, discusses the total cost of ownership regarding implementation and maintenance, and provides a feasibility assessment for organizations considering these alternatives. OpenCAD: This is perhaps the most well-known open-source
