Worklenz: Open-Source, All in one project management tool

dbingham · 2 years ago

This looks the exact same as every other project management tool out there. What differentiates this?

Project Management is an incredibly crowded space.

dewey · 2 years ago

Just like to-do list apps, everyone thinks the solution to not being productive is a technical one.

janwillemb · 2 years ago

And sw engineers feel very productive building a productivity tool, which is just an elaborate procrastination technique for sw developers.

What are the top open source told would you say that compete with this?

remram · 2 years ago

OpenProject, Taiga, Redmine, Focalboard, Plane, ...

Plus all the "knowledge management" apps (Affine, ...) plus all the project hosting platforms (GitLab, Gitea, ...)

bogwog · 2 years ago

There was another one on the front page recently called Plane (https://plane.so)

So crowded

And still not universally solved

Maybe generally but details don’t get handled well

RussianCow · 2 years ago

Maybe because there is no universal solution? Different teams work in different ways and I don't believe one tool can solve for all of them effectively without being mediocre at best for all or most use cases. (Jira comes to mind.) You're better off using simple, opinionated software that fits the way your team works.

Yes, It is but we built the product as a simple easy to use task and a resource management tool

Looks nice but it is missing clarity on the pricing page about if the premium features are also open source or not, or is this open core?

jorams · 2 years ago

It's licensed under the AGPL, they welcome pull requests and don't seem to require a CLA, so open core is not really possible.

2Gkashmiri · 2 years ago

no no. the question is, pricing page says under pro

- Everything in free plan - Resource management - Advanced project reporting - Track team members' progress - Reports exporting

are these available in agpl self-hosted version or not?

remram · 2 years ago

Is it? Where are the sources?

agnilak · 2 years ago

we need a CLA

agnilak · 2 years ago

Please check the updated pricing page

"Schedular" typo in image heading

agnilak · 2 years ago

Fixed! , Thank you

Looks nice, feels like a toy compared to serious project management tools like ProjeQtor

Interestingly their websites give the exact opposite impression

I hope the secrets were updated after being removed.

Seeing .DS_Store in a git repository shows so much, I don’t know if any other comment after that is even necessary.

agnilak · 2 years ago

Fixed , Thank you

walteweiss · 2 years ago

You’re welcome!

Why using grunt on a new project ?
