      I’ve used Asana and Nozbe. Both seemed fine, but they are SaaS. I don’t think they have self hosted options.

      OpenProject looks interesting https://www.openproject.org/

      Another option that’s kind of out of the box is to use GitLab. The issue tracking is pretty nice and with a subscription you can do burn down charts and some other cool stuff with your project milestones.

      Open project looks good as well. Need to test these out!

        @ambarishrh I started using SaltStack to track projects, but it won't meet your self-hosted and custom reports needs.

          How do you track that in SaltStack?

            The helpdesk tickets. Not ideal, but much better than nothing.

              I’m assuming you mean Sodium Suite.

                  Part of our O365, we have MS planner, been using it for few weeks and not really happy with that (mentioned this on another thread in ML)

                  BTW I think I read if you wanted a more advanced Planner, it is Project, which I think is still a thing.

                      I just started using http://2-plan.com with one of my customers this week. It seems pretty good. Looks really robust (been using it for 3 days so not really that familiar as of yet).

                          We used that at the last job, it's horrible. Super slow and complex to use. Requires way too much training.

                            I haven't really used it that much yet, but I'm part of the team that's going to decide whether on not we're going to get Jira Service Desk.

                              We’re using Asana. It’s ok.
                              Interface is easy to get lost in and can get spammy (email) if you have an overly keen team that likes to get stuff done and you don’t change the setting.

                              It’s mildly gamified, bordering on half heartedly.

                              Much better than MS teams and document sharing.

                              Interestingly, asana seem to sanatise the text put in by blocking certain strings.
                              For example, under the “profile” thing where you can put a bio like entry that your coworkers will never read, it won’t display: select * from everyone where clue > 0
                              But it will display a drop table command... I may or may not have quickly tested their data sanatisation... asana doesn’t strike me as being built on SQL anyway.

                              Anyway...

                              I find it difficult to keep a tab on things or find stuff when there’s more than 5 projects with multiple tasks.

                              5/10

                                I'm setting up openproject as we speak. An email came in about using a different software (which, okay) and I figured I'd see what was available.

                                They have a simple installation process too, which should make standing up this test a piece of cake.

                                    So far (in my testing and from this thread) it seems like this segment has a long way to go...

                                      CentOS 7. Having an issue with Unicorn though (and I'm not able to access the website once the installer finishes).

                                          Let me know if you have the same issues with unicorn.

                                            when I run "openproject run web" I get the following error:
                                            bundler: failed to load command: unicorn

                                            I also have a ton of ruby alias_method_chain errors when I run "openproject configure"
