Taiga
Open-source agile project management with Scrum and Kanban
Which one is for you
Pick Taiga if
- Fits if you're an agile team running Scrum or Kanban, or moving between the two
- Makes sense if you want to self-host an open-source tool, or pay one flat fee however many users join
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if you're staying free, with 1 public and 1 private project and 10 MB of storage
- Skip it if you want a phone or desktop app, because Taiga runs only in the browser
- Not for you if you bill by the hour or plan on a Gantt chart, as neither time tracking nor a Gantt view is listed
- Watch out: storage stops at 100 MB on €5, 500 MB on €20 and 3 GB on €60, and anything bigger is a sales quote
- Watch out: self-hosting means running Docker, and prices are listed in euros only
Pick Tuleap if
- Fits if you ship regulated or embedded software and must show traceability
- Works for organizations that want to host their own project tooling
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you want a price on the page, as there is none
- Too heavy for a small team that needs a simple task board
- Watch out: no free plan or trial is on record
- Skip it if you want phone apps, as the pages describe a web app only
How we grade them
| 2.8GPATaigaGood | 1.6GPATuleapWeak | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | AEnthusiast is €5 a month for the whole team, not per user, and unlimited projects is €20 flat. Split across even three people that's well under $3.06, which is 60% of the cheapest quarter here. Storage is the squeeze: 100 MB, then 500 MB. | CNo price is published; the site leads to a quote request, so it sits in the middle. |
| Free plan and trial | BA free plan one small team could live on, two ways. The hosted tier takes unlimited users but only 1 public and 1 private project with 10 MB of storage, and the open-source software itself is free to run on your own server. | FNo free plan or trial is recorded for it. The source is open, but a hosted plan is quoted. |
| Features | CIt covers agile work and stops there: Kanban with swimlanes, WIP limits, epics and sub-tasks, Scrum with a backlog, estimates per role and burndown charts, issue tracking, a wiki and dashboards. What the listing doesn't show is time tracking or a Gantt chart, both ordinary elsewhere here. | CAgile boards, trackers, requirements, traceability, test management and DevOps tools. It targets complex engineering, so small teams will find it heavy. |
| Ease of use | CNo store rating on record, and the work is yours: a backlog to fill, workflows and issue types to shape before the boards mean anything. The hosted service at least spares you a server, and a project can start as Kanban and turn into Scrum later. Self-hosting means Docker. | CNo store rating on record. A big suite to configure, aimed at engineering organizations. |
| Platforms and integrations | BWeb with integrations: a public REST API, outgoing webhooks, built-in Slack, GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket and Gogs, and a Zapier connector. The vendor's site mentions no desktop or mobile app, so the browser is all there is. | CWeb only. The pages list no desktop or mobile apps and no integrations. |
| Best for | agile teams who want Scrum and Kanban at a flat price | regulated software teams that need traceability |

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
