Project Management
OpenProject
Open-source project management software.
What it is
OpenProject is open-source project management with Gantt charts, agile boards and time tracking, self-hostable or cloud.
Strengths and trade-offs
What works well
- Classic project management and agile in one tool
- Self-hostable with no per-seat licence
- Gantt and baseline features included
Where it falls short
- Enterprise features are behind the paid edition
- Self-hosting is real maintenance
- Interface is functional rather than fast
Who it is for
Organisations needing formal project planning without commercial licensing.
Our verdict
The most complete open-source option for traditional project management.
