The latest version is not always the most stable one unfortunately.

Herramienta completa con la que se puede gestionar el desarrollo de un proyecto desde las primeras fases hasta su finalización.Me gusta su administración de usuarios.

No es del todo opensource ya que hay características claves que se necesitarían para la gestión de proyecto que son de pago. Aun así el precio no es muy elevado.

It should add more features to make it more better.

Inconvénients

resource management is a bit burdensome with OpenProject, No resource status notifications (we don't know if they are reserved or available),

Alternatives envisagées

Pourquoi passer à OpenProject

All services in OpenProject are free

Avantages

OpenProject is a pleasure to use for projects from proposal/concept to closing. Creating a WBS and timeline with generic resources is a great way to generate documentation needed for proposals. Copying that proposal project to an active project is then a great way to jumpstart project planning with team awareness of timelines and requirements. Teams can interact with the project plan, adding their own features and tasks to complete deliverables. Creating custom WBS queries assists in focusing team members on items they are required to complete. And creating custom queries to the master Work Package list provides a way for executive members to view the active phases and status of milestones. Meetings can be logged in their own section, and wiki notes can be captured for reference. Very pleased with the community version of OpenProject.

Inconvénients

Scheduling and resource management is a bit burdensome with OpenProject. There is so much value in scheduling with blocked-out weekends, holidays, and resource calendars. Resource loading reports have to be manually created in other tools (spreadsheets) to show whether resources are available or overbooked. The planned project overview page and executive/portfolio views can't come soon enough. Value is often communicated upwards, and there isn't much for executive management to view; these views and reports are still custom creations in other tools. Printing wiki pages, meetings, etc. are awkward. Budgeting is OK, but again awkward as the plugin appears to apply to all projects when within a single project. There is no baseline feature and no way to compare performance verses the baseline. For these reasons, users are still required to use more advanced resource management, project management and budgeting, and scheduling tools alongside OpenProject. It is great software, just not a complete replacement for other project management toolsets. At times, it would be good to have more condensed views, but reducing the screen rendering/size to less than 100% suffices for now.

Pourquoi choisir OpenProject 

Integrate project management and team collaboration with timelines and scheduling. A great PMIS, that is better than most, and will be best with resource management and executive/portfolio reporting!

Logiciel antérieur 

Bugzilla

Pourquoi passer à OpenProject

Free and timeline/work package views. Almost a complete PMIS.

Avantages

I like the ease of use (I never had to explain how to use it to team members, only to project admins), the clean interface, the granularity of the configuration (most of all the possibility of activating only the needed modules for each project), the customization possibilities for categories/statuses/fact that workflows, the flexibility and ease of query design, the availability of a Gantt view
I appreciated also very much that most of the essential features can be used for free without limitations (other tools like Asana limit the number of projects, tasks or team members).
Setup was extremely easy (but I'm a skilled technician and tinkerer with over 10 years of sysadmin experience, so your mileage may vary).

Inconvénients

It lacks some important features for project resources management like resource allocation (to spot overloads), resource leveling, resource calendars and resource availability percentage.
It also feels a bit skewed towards sw development teams and Agile methodology, so creating a classic waterfall WBS is not as easy as it should be and requires mental discipline; among other things, it does not allow for an easy reordering of tasks after their creation.
It does not allow for an easy nor complete import/export from/to MS Project (which IS arguably the industry standard).
The reports are not customizable and can only include task list and details (not the Gantt view).

Avantages

Easy to organize tasks among the members of the team, overview of the working hours. The complete and at the same time simple customization of the information available in boards and gants. A product, on my opinion total complete vs more other similar products on the market. The price is also affordable and is a plus for this product. What makes it perfect for us is the possibility to have it installed on personal servers.
The free version cover the 80% of the entire functionality.

Inconvénients

On Task Activity view it would help to have an preview of the images uploaded.

The product could be improved by adding more functionalities to the web document creation tool.

Avantages

- Customisable
- Project, subprojects, sub sub projects
- Tasks, subtasks,
- many customisable work package types
- Cost that feels right
- Not loaded with extra features that you are paying for buy never use.

Inconvénients

- needs basic refinement
- can be buggy
- steep learning curve

Asana

Pourquoi passer à OpenProject

Cost was more reasonable, customisation was better.

Avantages

It is free. While there are some paid features we might consider in the future, the core product does what we need it to do. As the head of the event, I need to keep an eye on all the moving parts and know who is doing what and what still needs to get done.

Inconvénients

With a name open, I'd have hoped that it would be one of those where you pay for support or implementation. However, some features are locked behind a monthly/yearly fee. If it was a one-time fee for non-profits, I'd consider it.

Avantages

Following are its top features:
- Gantt chart
- Task dependency creation
- Easy task assignment
- Costing

Inconvénients

- Collaboration could be improved like trello in big teams it can cause problems
- No kanban view
- Task searching, it's detail and it's activity is better in trello.

Avantages

I like how OpenProject allows teams to work and collaborate together more effectively on project schedules.It's easy and fast to keep track of multiple projects progress simultaneously with help of OpenProject.It's easy to organize,plan,create,assign and execute project and task schedules with this tool.OpenProject is a better tool for time and budget tracking hence making it easy and quick to track time and costs spent on projects.It's also to customize this tool dashboard so as to meet all our needs.It's a very secure tool for task and project management.

Inconvénients

I have nothing to do with dislikes as OpenProject works perfectly to meet all our requirements.

Avantages

If you select the professional version, you get kanban boards, collaboration and planning features which might replace Exchange server funkctionalities as long as you do classic PM tasks. I also liked the integrated workflows. The community edition might serve you well when you have only a small team.

Inconvénients

Different labour costs per user would be fine - i guess now you can only assign one hourly rate. I also would like to see a possibility to set the hours to "billed" or "exported" somehow.

Avantages

Transparency, easy-to-set and manage work item types, roles and responsibilities, the possibility to branch and link projects.

Inconvénients

Certain discrepancies regarding recording and maintaining efforts needed for individual tasks.
Gantt Charts not possible to be exported for reporting purposes (yet).

Avantages

We use this software to manage task. it makes it very easy to create tasks, assign them to individuals, and create work packages within a project. There are many options available when creating a work package, which is very useful. And also, it is possible to assign custom states to these work packages.

Inconvénients

The inability to expand and collapse tasks especially when has multiple children. This makes it hard for us to track thee tasks.
