Best for Kanban, Scrum and prioritisation boards

- Watch out: the FAQ says no refunds on cancellation or plan downgrades
- Skip it if you want a desktop or phone app, as only a web app is described

Keep Hygger, or make your own?
Keep it
The plain part of Hygger you could make: kanban boards, tasks, Gantt & timelines and time tracking. What surrounds it you could not. The 2 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 90 of the 111 other project management tools grade higher. It costs $84 a year.
What you could make
- Kanban boards, tasks, Gantt & timelines and time tracking: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team.
- An API that other software can build on.
What this rests on. Hygger’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
What is Hygger?
Hygger is a browser-based work management tool built around Kanban boards, with Scrum sprints, a backlog, timelines and roadmaps on top. It adds prioritization methods such as value versus effort scoring and the Eisenhower matrix. The free plan allows unlimited users but caps the workspace at 50 tasks.
Worth knowing
- The free plan stops at 50 tasks and 100 MB of storage.
- SAML SSO, Google Apps SSO, a branded workspace and unlimited API access need Enterprise at $14 per user / month billed annually.
- The FAQ says there are no refunds on cancellation or plan downgrades.
- The pages read describe a web app and mention no desktop apps; the Integrations page lists no apps in the text read.
Key features

- Scrum sprints
- Sprints use story point or hour estimates, with burndown charts, velocity and sprint release reports.
- Value and effort prioritization
- Ideas, features, tasks or projects can be scored on value against effort, sorted on an Eisenhower matrix, or ranked with custom scoring frameworks.
- Roadmaps and timeline
- Plans can be shown as roadmaps to share with team members and stakeholders, alongside a timeline view and a task list.
- Time logs
- Customer quotes on the homepage mention time logs and time tracking; the pricing page does not say which plan includes them.
