Taiga
6.7/10Open-source agile project management tool with Scrum, Kanban and issue tracking for software and cross-functional teams, offered as cloud plans or self-hosted.
Data last updated November 2026 · Our methodology
Overview
Taiga is an open-source agile project management platform that came out of a 2013 hackathon at the Madrid company Kaleidos. It has three main modules. Scrum covers backlogs, sprint planning, estimation and burndown charts. Kanban offers boards with swimlanes, WIP limits, epics and sub-tasks. Issues handles bug tracking with custom types, priorities and severities. Projects also get a wiki, team and personal dashboards, custom fields and tags, configurable workflow stages, role-based permissions, and an interface in more than 20 languages. Taiga suits software teams and small agile groups, especially those that want to self-host for free or keep data on their own servers. Hosted pricing on taiga.io is unusual because it is per account, not per user. Every plan allows unlimited users, and the tiers differ by number of projects, storage and support level. Free gives 1 public and 1 private project with 10MB of storage. Enthusiast costs 5 euros a month (50 euros a year), Basic 20 euros (200 euros), and Premium 60 euros (600 euros). Private Cloud and On-premise are priced by quote. Integrations include GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket and Gogs, Slack notifications, webhooks, a REST API, and Zapier. Importers bring projects in from Trello, Jira, GitHub and Asana. The main limitation is scope. Taiga is focused on agile delivery, so the vendor pages do not mention time tracking, Gantt planning or workflow automation rules, and storage on the cheaper hosted tiers is very small.
