- Cost (also applies to ``free as in free beer`` solutions):
Today the cost for a mask set in 180nm technology is far less than
the cost for the design tools needed to design the mask layouts. Open Source
ASIC flows are an important enabler for ASIC-level Open Source Hardware.

commercial tools, you usually do not have easy access to the version that was
used in a research project a couple of years ago. With Open Source tools you
can even release the source code of the tool you have used alongside your data.

- Framework:
Yosys is not only a tool. It is a framework that can be used as basis for other
developments, so researchers and hackers alike do not need to re-invent the
basic functionality. Extensibility was one of Yosys' design goals.

- All-in-one:
Because of the framework characteristics of Yosys, an increasing number of features
become available in one tool. Yosys not only can be used for circuit synthesis but
also for formal equivalence checking, SAT solving, and for circuit analysis, to
name just a few other application domains. With proprietary software one needs to
learn a new tool for each of these applications.
