What do you like best about Redmine?

Since Redmine is an open-source project it is highly customizable. Not only can you change the looks and processes but Redmine can be extended by writing your own integrations via its plugin system. In theory this allows you to build a project management software 100% customized to your companies needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Redmine?

Out-of-the-box Redmine's user interface can seem very bland and the learning curve to configure the software can be quite steep, so some learning and adaptation is required before you can start using the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Redmine solving and how is that benefiting you?

The four main areas my team uses Redmine for are:

1. Task management to assign responsibilities and monitor progress

2. Bug tracking to allow our users to log and describe issues in detail, so the development team can solve them accordingly

3. Documentation to provide a centralized location to store our software and project documentation

4. Resource management to help manage our soft- and hardware resources and track their availablity Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Redmine?

Has the capabilities of processing and building the projects. Sufficient and practical features make everything possible in project work management.

A feature enables you to manage the history of the tools and the operations used in the process planning and completion of the project successfully.

The integration and collaboration feature is also handy, engaging, and helpful at the same time, making the file importing and docs transferring quite more accessible.

Tracking of project work feature is also provided under this one location.

The platform's field and UI is fully editable and customizable according to user needs and interests.

A detailed process of planning and importing documentation under this is easy and flexible.

The tracking id creation and assigning to all the desired work and issues is beneficial to identify and locate the problems faced in the project so that they can be easily transferred to the team member.

The mail notifying is always on time here, and no delays are seen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Making everything possible for us to manage and process the projects all together. Keeping all the project-related data secured at one location and addressed adequately.

What do you like best about Redmine?

It's one of the simple and flexible tool to manage the project management activities like tasks, bugs, deliverables or others. It's an open source tool with stack version and it works across the platform and databases. We liked it's integration with internal application through different database. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Redmine?

The least helpful thing is it's authentication method which is again LDAP based. Considering current scenarios this group should provide MULTI FACTOR AUTHENTICATION or SSO integration with any technique (SAMPL2.0)

The other point is it's scalability and Lacking with OPEN APIs for more integration Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Redmine solving and how is that benefiting you?

Redmine tool is helpful for managing project management activities. We use it for issue tracking, reporting, notification etc. We use it as a controlled document repository to store various process deviation, bugs, CAPAs etc. It helped us to create project and process specific help pages or files. Access control feature helped to maintain SOD amongst the different projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
