### "Using Redmine for Time Tracking"

August 3, 2022

2.0

Pros

To be honest I do not like this app, it seems out of date, not easy to use, I have used other tools and the transition to Redmine has not been smooth at all. I prefer to use Toggl and just at the end of the week import all the hours because in that way I do not have to spend a lot of time on Redmine.

Cons

It is not easy to use, it seems outdated, for some reason I was never able to see “my timesheet” and have to do a lot of filtering to find my hours. I do not like using this tool.

Switched from

It was a change on company.

### "Very poor user interfaces"

October 23, 2018

2.0

My overall experience with Red mine is bad and do not recommend this over other project management software.

Pros

It has many features that are essential to project management like grant charts, assigning tasks and hosted locally. Users can assign for tasks and deadlines.

Cons

User interfaces of this applications is very poor and it's very hard to figure out process and features available within the application. There's no notification system also.

### "Welcome to Project Management... Circa 1993"

August 10, 2018

2.0

Redmine. Because you get what you pay for.

Pros

The fact that Redmine is opensource is pretty cool especially for new startup businesses that are looking to keep expenses minimal.

Cons

The program itself is bushleague. Really cannot use it for true project management. And while it seems to be an acceptable data / issue management repository, there are many much better applications available.

### "Confusing"

April 28, 2020

3.0

We keep all our product documents in place and that is helpful.

Pros

I like this software because it keeps things organized and keeps our files readily available. That's about it though.

Cons

The organization is very confusing and is hard to navigate. I've learned how to navigate it, but it's still a pain to find anything.

### "Functionality is OK but appearence is not it´s best."

January 18, 2018

3.0

Pros

Functionality for this product is big because it can be many things like Wiki, Issue Tracking, Support System, etc.

Cons

The interface is terrible, seems like you´re using a "better" UI of Bugzilla and if you´re someone that likes a minimum of UI you won´t like it.

### "Pretty good web-based project management software"

June 2, 2018

3.0

Pros

Redmine is a good choice for startups and budget-conscious teams. The feature set is passable and the price is right. Being based on Ruby on Rails means it is adaptable to many databases.

Cons

The software design is showing its age. The UI doesn't really compare to modern web apps. It is also lacking in terms of analytics.

### "Great tool, but many small issues"

February 11, 2017

4.0

The software is great in order to increase the productivity of the team work. The installation and updates were always an issue; now it is a bit better with docker containers. There are lot of minor issues here and there, which are probably resulting from a big list of functions. But the main issue is the interface, which is difficult for new-comers and thus hard to convince people to start using it

Pros

a broad list of functions

Cons

heavy interface
