What is it?

OpenProject is web-based project management software for teams and organizations that want to keep control of their data and infrastructure. It covers projects, portfolios, products, tasks, bugs, agile workflows and roadmaps in one place, and can be run on premises or used as a cloud service.

The feature set includes agile boards supporting Kanban, Scrum and SAFe, project planning with Gantt charts, product and release planning, and time tracking with cost reporting and budgeting. Teams can also use built-in wikis, forums, news, and meeting agendas and minutes. Integrations are listed for Nextcloud, XWiki, GitHub and GitLab.

The Community Edition is free to self-host, while an Enterprise Edition adds support and enterprise add-ons. The project is licensed under GPL-3.0 and is written in Ruby.
