OpenProject is a web-based, open source project management application for classic, agile, and hybrid project, product, and portfolio management. It offers Gantt charts, Kanban and Scrum boards, issue and bug tracking, roadmaps, time tracking, wikis, and team collaboration, and can be self-hosted on-premises or used in the cloud.

Use cases

  • self-host an open source Jira alternative for issue tracking
  • plan projects with Gantt charts and timelines
  • run Scrum and Kanban boards for agile teams
  • track time and costs against project tasks and budgets
  • manage a portfolio of projects with roadmaps and dashboards
  • track bugs and feature requests across releases
  • keep project documentation in wikis and meeting minutes
  • link GitHub or GitLab commits and pull requests to work packages

When to choose

  • you need data sovereignty and want to self-host project management on your own infrastructure
  • you want a free, open source, enterprise-ready alternative to Jira, MS Project, Asana, or Monday
  • your teams mix classic (Gantt/waterfall) and agile (Scrum/Kanban/SAFe) methodologies
  • you need built-in time tracking, cost reporting, and portfolio management
  • you want integrations with Nextcloud, GitHub, GitLab, or XWiki

When to avoid

  • you only need a lightweight personal to-do list rather than full project management
  • you want a minimal, single-purpose issue tracker without planning or portfolio features
  • you cannot operate a Ruby/Angular web application or prefer a fully managed SaaS without self-hosting
  • you need proprietary enterprise add-ons (e.g., XWiki, OneDrive/SharePoint integrations) without an Enterprise license
