Worklenz delivers an all-in-one project management platform purpose-built for teams that bill clients for their time and expertise. The task management system supports list, Kanban board, and timeline Gantt views with priorities, due dates, assignees, labels, and subtasks. Built-in time tracking offers both start-stop timers and manual entry, logging billable hours directly against tasks and automatically aggregating time data into project-level cost reports. The resource management module provides a visual team utilization dashboard showing capacity allocation across all active projects, helping managers avoid overallocation and balance workloads. Client portals give external stakeholders direct visibility into project progress, task status, and deliverables without requiring internal account access. Financial insights track budgets versus actuals, showing project profitability, cost breakdowns, and burn rate in real time. The analytics engine generates reports on project health, team workload distribution, task completion trends, and time allocation patterns. Project templates enable one-click setup of common agency workflows with pre-configured task structures, milestones, and assignments. The React frontend uses Ant Design components with TypeScript, while the Express.js backend connects to PostgreSQL for data and Redis for caching. Docker Compose deployment includes Nginx reverse proxy with SSL/TLS support, automated database backups, health checks on all services, network isolation, and MinIO for object storage. On RepoCloud, deploy Worklenz on a dedicated VPS with root SSH access, persistent PostgreSQL storage for your project data, and complete control over client portal access and team configurations, all under the AGPL-3.0 license.

Why export timesheets from one tool, manage Kanban tasks in a second, and copy billable hours into a third just to send a client invoice when TimeTracker handles the entire agency workflow in one self-hosted platform? Start a persistent server-side timer from any browser or log hours manually using saved templates, bulk entry forms, and automatic idle detection. Project managers organize deliverables across drag-and-drop Kanban boards, Gantt timelines, and threaded task comments while monitoring real-time project budgets and cost burn rates. A built-in CRM tracks client contacts, lead scores, and sales pipeline stages before work even begins. When billing day arrives, you convert unbilled hours, reimbursable receipts, mileage logs, and per diem allowances directly into branded multi-currency invoices without double-billing a single minute. Finance teams can customize PDF invoice layouts, automate recurring billing schedules, and transmit EN 16931 compliant electronic invoices via Peppol or embedded ZUGFeRD/Factur-X XML. Interactive analytics dashboards and scheduled CSV or Excel exports give every stakeholder complete visibility into billable utilization.

Powering distributed teams seeking full visibility into work patterns and productivity, Ever Teams is an open-source platform unifying time tracking, task management, project coordination, and team collaboration in a single self-hosted application. The real-time timer tracks work against tasks and projects with one-click start/stop, while the Electron desktop app captures periodic screenshots at configurable intervals, monitors keyboard and mouse activity levels, detects idle periods, and syncs offline sessions automatically. Kanban boards with drag-and-drop, calendar views, and daily planning tools organize work across custom statuses, priorities, and sizes. Built-in video conferencing powered by Jitsi or LiveKit enables meetings without leaving the platform. Timesheet management supports submission, review, and approval workflows with configurable time limits and budgets.

Your team's work lives in boards, sprints, and deadlines, and TaskView keeps all of it on infrastructure you control instead of a vendor's cloud. Projects break down into lists, tasks, and nested subtasks with priorities, tags, deadlines, and assignees, arranged on custom Kanban boards whose statuses you define yourself. A dependency graph shows which tasks block which, sprints organize iterations, and recurring tasks regenerate on schedule so weekly rituals never need manual recreation. Built-in time tracking separates billable from non-billable hours, and analytics turn that data into workload reports, productivity views, and income and expense summaries. Multiple organizations share one instance with invites, granular role permissions, and real-time updates, while SAML 2.0, OpenID Connect, and SCIM provisioning plug into your existing identity provider. GitHub and GitLab integrations connect development work to the board, signed webhooks push events into your other systems, and scoped API tokens plus a TypeScript client make automation safe to hand out. An MCP server lets AI assistants search projects, create and update tasks, and manage statuses within the exact permissions you grant.

"As simple as Trello but as feature-rich as Jira" is how the Leantime team frames its goals-focused project management system for non-project managers - built from the ground up with ADHD, autism, and dyslexia in mind, with behavioral science shaping customizable dashboards, time blocking, low-cognitive-load prioritization, and Kanban, list, table, Gantt, and calendar views so each person works the way their brain does. The PHP application (AGPL, Laravel Blade frontend) connects strategy to execution: tasks with unlimited subtasks and dependencies roll up into milestones on a timeline, sprints and retrospectives handle iteration, and strategy-level blueprint boards - Lean Canvas, SWOT, risk analysis, goal and metric tracking - keep the "why" attached to the work. Knowledge lives alongside: wikis and docs, idea boards, comments on everything, file storage on S3 or local disk, even screen and webcam recording. Time tracking with timesheets supports estimation and client billing. Admin features are serious for an OSS tool: per-project permissions, two-factor auth, LDAP and OIDC single sign-on, Slack, Mattermost, and Discord integrations, a plugin system, and an expanding API that now powers a mobile app. Recent releases added multi-collaborator task assignment and low-vision accessibility improvements. Available in 20+ languages.

With nearly 8,000 GitHub stars since its December 2024 launch, Kaneo has rapidly gained traction as the minimalist alternative to bloated project management platforms like Jira and Linear. Built on TypeScript with React and Hono, the interface strips away complexity to focus on execution — plan in list view, track in kanban board, and schedule on interactive Gantt chart timelines where dragging bar handles adjusts start and due dates with optimistic UI updates. Native GitHub integration synchronizes issues bidirectionally, links pull requests to tasks, and keeps product planning aligned with development execution without context switching. The built-in Model Context Protocol server at /api/mcp enables AI tools like Claude and Cursor to manage tasks, projects, and labels directly, while the official @kaneo/mcp npm package provides stdio access for local MCP clients. Authentication supports password, magic link, GitHub OAuth, and Google sign-in with organization-level access management. Rich text editing for task descriptions and comments, label-based initiative grouping, priority levels, assignee management, and due date tracking provide focused planning without ceremony. Deploy with the drim CLI for automatic HTTPS and database setup, Docker Compose for custom configurations, or Helm charts for Kubernetes clusters — all requiring just 2GB RAM and PostgreSQL.

Windshift packs boards, sprints, roadmaps, test runs, time tracking, and a customer portal into one open-source tracker that replaces Jira on a server you control. Epics, stories, and sub-tasks form a hierarchy you can view as a board, list, tree, or map, and backlog items drag into dated sprints. The roadmap stretches across weeks, months, or quarters, and milestone pages show completion percentage with a status breakdown. Each workspace defines its own item types, custom fields, screens, statuses, priorities, workflows with conditions and approvals, and permissions, while JQL-style queries save as shared views. Event-driven rules update fields, notify people, and create work. Customers file requests through a public portal, and your team works them through queues with SLAs and approvals. Reusable test cases roll into test runs with success rates, and timers log billable and internal hours against projects and customers. GitHub, GitLab, Gitea, and Forgejo connections put branches and pull requests on the work item, and the importer brings over Jira projects, comments, attachments, and worklogs. A knowledge base and an asset register keep documentation and inventory next to the work. The interface speaks nine languages, including right-to-left Arabic, and sign-in supports OIDC single sign-on and passkeys. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

ProjectSend gives every client a private, signed-in page on your own server where only the files you assigned to them appear, so contracts, photo shoots, and quarterly reports skip the third-party file-sharing service. You upload once, then share a file or a whole folder with one client, a group, or anyone holding a public link, with an optional expiry date or download limit. Clients search, preview, and download files one by one or as a zip, whole folders included, comment on a document so questions stay beside it, and send files back within the quota you set. Uploads of up to 2 GB travel in resumable pieces, so a dropped connection pauses a transfer instead of ruining it. Folders, categories, custom client fields, and linked file versions keep a growing library tidy, while roles with granular permissions let staff work without becoming administrators. The activity log and download history record who received what and when, and the log exports to CSV. Sign-in works with email and password, LDAP, or Google and Microsoft accounts, with optional two-factor authentication. Your logo, watermark, themes, and editable email templates carry your brand, and the interface is translated into 16 languages. Optional virus scanning quarantines suspicious uploads, and a REST API with scoped tokens automates uploads, sharing, and account management. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GPL-2.0-or-later licensed.

From a freelancer logging billable hours to companies with hundreds of users, Kimai scales professional-grade open-source time tracking - a Symfony/PHP application without the per-seat pricing of Harvest or Toggl. Tracking is flexible by design: run multiple concurrent timers, use punch-in/punch-out mode, or enter times manually, organized by customer, project, and activity with tags, and priced by user-, customer-, or project-specific rates. The billing pipeline is where Kimai earns "professional grade": generate invoices directly from timesheet data with configurable templates (DOCX, ODS, XLSX, PDF), entry grouping, and invoice-number generators, while an export flag locks billed records against editing and excludes them from future invoices - the audit-safety detail spreadsheet workflows never get right. E-invoicing supports EN 16931, XRechnung 3.0, and Zugferd/Factur-X. Enterprise controls come standard: SAML and LDAP login against Google Workspace, Azure AD, or Authentik, TOTP two-factor auth, customizable role permissions, and teams that scope customers and projects to departments. Money and time budgets alert before overruns, advanced reporting slices recorded time by any dimension, and an extensive JSON API plus a plugin marketplace (expenses, approvals, and more) integrate it with existing infrastructure. Over 30 translations, multi-timezone, AGPL-licensed.

Solidtime is a time tracker for freelancers and agencies, offering a modern SaaS-quality interface that rivals commercial tools like Toggl and Clockify. The time tracking interface provides a running timer, calendar view, and weekly timesheet for flexible entry across desktop, mobile, and the dedicated macOS, Windows, and Linux desktop applications. Project management organizes work by client with hierarchical billable rates configurable at organization, member, project, and project-member levels, ensuring accurate billing across complex team structures. The invoicing module generates polished PDF invoices and structured EU e-invoices with configurable VAT rates, percentage and fixed discounts, EU reverse-charge handling, reusable company templates, and automatic line item generation from billable time entries. Reporting provides filterable summaries by user, project, client, and date range with exportable data for billing audits and team retrospectives. Multi-organization support manages separate workspaces from a single account with role-based permissions controlling access across organizations. Data import from Toggl, Clockify, and generic Timeentry CSV files enables migration from existing tools without losing historical records. The RESTful API with bearer token authentication enables automation and integration with external services. Docker deployment with PostgreSQL runs behind Nginx or Traefik reverse proxy. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

With nearly 10,000 GitHub stars and over a decade of development since 2013, Invoice Ninja is the most complete source-available invoicing platform for freelancers and small businesses — combining professional invoicing, online payments, expense tracking, and project management in a single self-hosted application.

Team and product documentation on a fast Vue frontend with PostgreSQL storage: Wiki.js is a Node.js wiki engine. Its distinguishing trait is per-page editor choice: authors pick Markdown with live preview, a WYSIWYG visual builder for non-technical writers, or raw HTML, page by page. Native Git synchronization commits every page change to GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Azure DevOps, or any Git remote - bi-directionally, so edits made in the repository flow back into the wiki - giving documentation version-controlled backup for free. Authentication coverage is among the broadest of any self-hosted wiki: local accounts with self-registration, social login via Google, GitHub, Discord, and Slack, and enterprise SSO through LDAP/Active Directory, SAML, CAS, Auth0, Okta, Azure AD, Keycloak, and generic OAuth2/OIDC, with optional MFA. Built-in full-text search runs on PostgreSQL with zero setup, and external engines like Algolia or Solr can substitute. Page history with visual version comparison, granular group-based permissions per path, nested navigation menus, 50+ integration modules, and full localization round it out. AGPLv3-licensed with a 28k-star community.
