I don't see this as an issue, personally. Part of their product is open-source, and part of it isn't. In addition, their product can be used to help open-source projects with documentation, code running, etc. When I read "Open Source" near the bottom, that's what I read (the we help you with your open source projects). Also, any company is allowed to use names as long as they have an agreement with the company in place. Whether or not those companies use 1 of the company's products or all of them doesn't matter much. You see this a lot on Enterprise-oriented websites. Not all customers who leave case studies will use all the products.

"Part of their product is open-source" As I understand it, this is no longer the case (as compared to say an open core company). They had some open source software. They abandoned it. They hope to open source their tech in the future, but currently they are closed source proprietary tech on top of the usual Linux, node, etc infrastructure. They may be used by, or useful for open source projects, but currently they are not what most people would consider an open source company. I think that requires at least an open core, which to my understanding is not currently available.
