Overall Opinion: Even if you have the best talent in the world, an inefficient organizational structure can railroad the best intentions of your business. OpenProject automates significant aspects of the management process so your team can devote their energy to their individual tasks. While things can't always go to plan, having a structure in place is one of the best ways to ensure smooth sailing throughout the life of your project. OpenProject offers three major project planning processes that can work usefully in tandem together. Gantt charts allow you to create a timeline for every team and member within your organization. You'll have a clearly delineated schedule that allows you to create conditional sub-schedules, establish milestones, and stagger different aspects of your project. These can be adjusted on the fly when complications inevitably arise. These are then mapped to work projects and calendars that allow your employees to track their progress and keep managers up to date whenever they reach assigned objectives. The whole process is collaborative, so managers can get the input they need to develop a schedule that's within reason. These can then be visualized in a project roadmap, which manifests as a clean presentation that can be displayed to shareholders, partners, and investors. The various work projects are tied to aspects of the roadmap, a lifesaver when you're juggling multiple projects at the same time. And with the mutable task list, you can track the specific activities of your workers and transfer these activities to others as necessity requires. All of this happens in real time, helping keep everyone on track and on message. While it's important to consider the creative process and the satisfaction of your employees, business is business, and it ultimately comes down to money. That's why the whole interface loops back in to the time and money management dashboard. You can designate a budget to each project and generate reports. The results will adjust as the project progresses, taking into account factors like the fulfillment time for milestones and money spent on overtime. That all these components together is one of the greatest benefits of OpenProject, tying together the fundamental metrics a manager needs to follow to keep their teams in line, on schedule, and under budget. That everyone can engage directly in the process is just icing on the cake. Just like meaningful collaboration is the cornerstone of any successful business, it's also a powerful way to oversee the creation and management of software like OpenProject. The Community Edition of OpenProject is open source, which means it's supported by a dedicated community of invested developers. That speeds up the process of updates, improves the functionality of the project, and ensures that the utilities most demanded by the community are more effectively implemented. For those running businesses with more than 50 members, the Enterprise Edition may be a better choice. A range of subscription plans with a variety of features are available. OpenProject also offers a Cloud Edition, also tethered to a subscription plan, which comes with full technical support and premium features. The OpenSource team offers a variety of additional services that include installation, training and consultation, and custom development.
Pros: Community Edition is free to install Great user interface manages to make the most important information easily accessible Lots of customization options for user access
