OPEN PROJECT ALTERNATIVE
OpenProject without the closed ecosystem
OpenProject and RedmineX can both cover serious project management requirements. The difference is what happens when you need an extra feature.
With RedmineX, you keep what you're used to:
Enterprise authentication (Microsoft Entra SSO, LDAP, SAML & OAuth)
Advanced project management (Gantt, Agile, resource planning & reporting)
Helpdesk with SLA management
Time tracking & reporting
But gain the freedom to:
Choose your hosting
Choose your developers
Choose your plugins
Build your own integrations
Switch providers, not platforms

OpenProject vs RedmineX FAQ
Yes. RedmineX can run on your own infrastructure, in a private cloud, or as a fully managed RedmineX environment. You keep control over where your data lives without giving up professional support and maintenance.
Redmine provides the open-source foundation. RedmineX turns it into a commercially supported project management platform with advanced plugin stack, professional support, upgrades, integrations, custom development and managed infrastructure. You retain the flexibility of stock Redmine without having to build and maintain the entire solution yourself.
Yes. Because RedmineX is built on open-source Redmine, we can develop custom plugins, integrations, workflows and functionality around your business requirements. You are not limited to configuring the features provided by a fixed SaaS product.
Yes. RedmineX can manage the complete Redmine stack, including Redmine, Ruby, Rails, database, plugins, upgrades, backups, monitoring and the underlying server environment. This gives you one point of responsibility instead of separating application support from infrastructure maintenance.
You are not locked into one deployment model or a fixed feature set. RedmineX can be moved between hosting environments, extended with additional plugins and integrations, or modified through custom development as your requirements evolve.
