What do you like best about Wekan?

We own the data we create on our boards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wekan?

Nothing! Functions just as Trello does for us! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The issue of having to secure data behind our own firewall to fulfill security requirements on the enterprise level. By having a powerful tool like Wekan being a piece of open source software that fulfills the need for us owning the data we are creating, it opens us up to the possibility of using other open source tools to achieve a lot more for a lot less.

What do you like best about Wekan?

Wekan is very reponsive. Everything happens happens instantly and the immediate feedback is great. It's very much modeled after Trello - they even use some of the same words for the concepts inside the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wekan?

I would like Wekan to be a bit more flexible in its configuration. While it's great that it's very easy to use and deploy, sometimes you just wish for this one thing, and it's not there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Basically, I use it to keep track of things so that nothing get swept under the rug when things get out of hand. It definitely helps to have a way of quickly wiring down tasks and assigning them to people. Labels for cards help to get an quick overall overview. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Wekan?

Local install of Trello. We use Wekan for local data, so that we don't have to trust Trello with our data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wekan?

Not as full featured as Trello. No search function. Lack of admin users. Lack of colors for backgrounds. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Wekan is great for local storage of your data when you still want to use a full featured kanban board.

Wekan is helping our group collaborate more, assign tasks and track them, and we don't have to trust anyone else with our sensitive data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
