August 23, 2022

My overall experience is very very good

Pros

OpenProject is an excellent tool for project tracking and management. My project team uses this tool to manage the agile software development process. It offers more advanced functionality if you select the professional version.

Cons

The free version lacks key features so you have to upgrade to the paid version to get more benefits.

### "Free but great for project management"

May 31, 2019

5.0

I used this platform to manage a project from the office on restoration of public art monuments, involved a lot of staff located in different parts, we had very little time, we managed to complete the project coordinating all activities and tasks with this platform, so it was much easier for me to receive reports from managers and area coordinators, I could detect where there were delays and who were the most efficient in fulfilling their tasks, it is amazing the information you can get from a platform like this

Pros

One of its most emblematic features, is a free platform and open source, you can use it from any operating system, gives you the tools to have control and make the necessary follow-up until the end of the project.

Cons

It should take more advantage of its open-source feature and incorporate more tools and functions.

### "Multi purpose app to save time"

September 14, 2023

overall experience is great and i like this tool pesonally.

Pros

It can be utilised without a cloud on a personal server.It is free in its most basic form and open source.Its user interface is fairly simple. By pressing a single button, you may access all the information and save time. Another really important feature when producing Cost Reports is the ability to create custom rows and columns. I do this every week, and it has helped me produce a variety of Reports for my seniors.

Cons

Personally i do not find any thing which i did not like about this app, all the things are good and upto the mark.

### "OpenProject pour un premier projet en méthode Scrum"

June 21, 2024

5.0

Ce logiciel est parfait pour gérer des projets. J'ai fait mon premier projet en méthode Scrum avec ce logiciel, et je suis franchement convaincu par celui-ci.

Pros

J'ai apprécié toute la partie gestion de projet, l'attribution et le suivi des tâches qui est très facile, la communication. Il est simple de savoir où en est le projet, quels sont les avancements, et cela aide l'équipe à avancer rapidement.

Cons

Un point que j'ai trouvé dommage est le faite de devoir remplir toutes les US (= User Stories / ~tâches) à la main. Il serait intéressant d'avoir la possibilité de les importer via une feuille de calcul, ou autrement. Ensuite, leur gestion est simple, avec l'attribution pour chacune de différents critères, rien à dire pour cela.

### "Great Tool"

August 28, 2019

4.0

It has helped me a lot in project management. Task management and monitoring. I would like a brief overview of the project portfolio.

Pros

Open source software, API, web based. Constant feature and security updates. Agile tools; Gantt chart.

Cons

The integration of agile module with gantt chart does not work correctly. There is currently a need for manual updates to the Agile module and Gantt. It would be great if the Gantt chart showed the progress of Versions, User Stories, and Tasks automatically. Currently I have to create a Gantt Phase and link to the Version of the same name.
