Redmine

Redmine is one of the most established open-source project management platforms, powering project tracking and collaboration for thousands of organizations since 2006. Built with Ruby on Rails and designed for flexibility, Redmine adapts to diverse project management methodologies from agile development to traditional waterfall approaches. With support for unlimited projects, customizable workflows, and extensive plugin ecosystem, Redmine serves teams ranging from small startups to large enterprises and government organizations. Unlike rigid project management tools, Redmine provides the building blocks for creating workflows that match your team's actual processes through custom fields, issue types, statuses, and role-based permissions. Used by software development teams, IT departments, construction firms, and research institutions, Redmine has proven itself as a reliable, self-hosted solution for managing complex projects without subscription fees or vendor lock-in.

Common Use Cases

Software development teams use Redmine for bug tracking, feature requests, release planning, and sprint management with Git, SVN, and Mercurial repository integration for commit-linked issues. IT departments track help desk tickets, infrastructure projects, and change management processes with email integration for creating and updating issues directly from support emails. Project managers coordinate cross-functional initiatives with Gantt charts, time tracking, milestone planning, and resource allocation across multiple concurrent projects. Agencies and consultancies manage client projects with separate project spaces, time tracking for billing, document management, and client-accessible portals for transparency. Research teams coordinate studies, track deliverables, manage publications, and document methodologies with wiki integration and file versioning.
