Taiga

Good and Rich functionalities, Not a great user experience

Comments: Managing project milestones, cost and resource planning at ease.

Pros:

The implementation of agile concepts are done really well, Helps us manage our project cost and resource bandwidth easily.

Cons:

The user experience and the interface if not really great and easy to understand. Needs a little work

Cool tool to organize the job for your team

Comments: We were using taiga for over 1 year to manage a team of software developers. Since we were using SCRUM for agile methodology, taiga was the chosen tool to complete the work

Pros:

The UI is great, you can easily create cards, track progress and more for your team. Also you can manage the theme of the dashboard, I loved it.

Cons:

It is a little bit expensive and you can create just 1 project for free, after that you need to pay.

its a bit pricey - but works for my needs

Comments: Issue tracking, project planning, and feature planning.

Pros:

User Controls. I like being able to control who can edit and create issues and stories and who can view only.

Cons:

Embedding images and videos is rough. More markdown features would be nice. Ability to tighten the style Esp. on the Kanban board. I'm an advocate of specificity, so we're verbose, by default. Its tough to see anything useful in the Kanban view. And, horizontal scrolling!?! That should never happen in a modern UI.

Taigatized

Comments: Our organisation have been using taiga from ptoject management. It has been a great experience. You can manage your tasks and project velocity effectively.

Pros:

Taiga is very flexible in terms of ptoject management . It provides kanban and scrum templates. Task management is really easy. Project velocity can be tracked easily. Issue management is handled nicely.

Cons:

The UI sometimes gets distorted on some resolutions.

Best project management software out there.

Pros:

It's a great project management tool and easily better than the other solutions we use with other clients (pivotal tracker, forecast, gitlab and trello).

Cons:

Needs better mobile support and does not have time tracking and budget tracking features. Needs better sprint creation/edit too.

Good experience overall, but had to move to Redmine because Taiga does not have enough features

Comments: Good software to grow the team from 5-0 developers to 30. But after that, we needed something more powerful.

Pros:

Easy to use, good to get started. Also I really like the fact that the software is available as open source but you can pay for a SaaS version to install it very quickly. This is what we did.

Cons:

Lack of advanced features. Vision / future of this software is not good for me, developers are focusing on things I find totally unrelevant instead of focusing on adding valuable features.

Our favorite for project management

Pros:

Taiga is free, you can deploy it to your own servers. It's easy to use, you can customize Taiga easily. It's getting active development, and developers keep adding more and more features on every release.

Cons:

Packing of the software isn't good on self-hosted version. You will definitely need a system administrator both to setup and upgrade the Taiga.

User Friendly and Helps you Stay organised

Comments: Keeps me organised and on track with daily projects

Pros:

Intuitive User Friendly Simple Very easy to use Good organisation

Cons:

No real cons with this software, it is a good package that does exactly what it says on the tin

Great tool, helping us focus day-to-day

Comments: Clarity, Focus and a shared view of the companies goals.

Pros:

Clarity, ease of use and it's quite stylish too! We have found that with this tool information can be shared easily by our developers, marketing and product staff, giving them a unified view of the companies goals.

Cons:

I would like a better bundle deal on the licences, especially as we are a small starter company. The per head charges are "OK" but it would be great if there was a lower tier that allowed a staged uplift to the full licensing model.

A very simple story management system. Ideal for a small starup

Comments: Very simple and easy to use with a limited number features

Pros:

Suitable for a small starup because its simple and easy to use

Cons:

If your looking for advance features this software if not for you. We initially started off using Taiga and continued to use it for about 8 months and realized that it was hard to run a full scrum project using this tool.

Project and issues management which is not time consuming

Comments: We finally have a useful project and issues management tool that we keep up-to-date without eating up too much time. Not everybody likes it - because their favourite and "absolutely necessary" feature is missing ;) And that is fine.

Pros:

The simplicity of Taiga is its best feature! Keep it simple to avoid becoming too complicated to use (like so many other project management tools) and too time consuming to properly manage. There are custom attributes, and if you need more than a handful of those you're headed for the swamp. This is a tool, a means to an end, not an end in itself.

Cons:

The reporting is a bit too rudimentary. There is a need to extract meaningful information, by applying filters (and also on custom attributes). I currently have to do this outside of Taiga, which is somewhat cumbersome.

great open source option

Comments: i think that is the best free alternative to run projects

Pros:

ts a great free open source option to run teams and projects. easy to use, cool user interface andexperience . integrations with gitlab, totally customizable

Cons:

confrence calls can work better. it sually freezes. the option Is relatively new and has room for improvement

Taiga is nice collaboration tool between different organizations

Comments: Taiga is an easy and complete tool that provides excellent Agile collaboration and sharing funcionalities.

Pros:

Taiga covers the whole left by most of similar software when it is needed as a collaboration tool between different organizations. The way it is licensed allows to easily share and collaborate between parties without the company boundaries found in other software models.

Cons:

The integration and migration functionalities with other platforms

Taiga needs more time to catch up

Comments: Project management, product management, issue tracking.

Pros:

Tiaga is easy to set up, has the core product management features you need, and offers multiple strategies out of the box. There are also easy ways to manage open source projects, including tools to find volunteers and share product plans. Overall, the functionality is what you expect for a basic project management tool.

Cons:

Taiga lacks the advanced and comfort features that make the job easy. This includes easy Kanban-style ticketing view, full customization, higher level project management (epics), and a fair pricepoint. While you can host Taiga yourself and add this customization, as it is open sourced, few will have the time or patience to do this. These issues do not make Taiga impossible to use or recommend, but will frustrate users of JIRA or Pivotal.

The best agile project management tool is Taiga

Pros:

When JIRA didn't meet our needs, we analyzed every tool on the market and decided on Taiga due to it having the lowest number of clicks per action in our workflow. Its easy to get started with, the search features are fantastic, and it scales well from tiny projects to monsters.

Cons:

We use almost exclusively the issue tracker because of it is the most flexible and has the best searching/ordering of the Taiga views. However, issues can't be owned by user stories or epics, which limits our ability to organize large projects. I wish issues could be used as children of larger scope items like epics.

My take on Taiga.io

Comments: Taiga has been a shiny and enticing tool that on occasion does not work at all.

Pros:

Gorgeous interface, decent set of tasks for teams employing Agile software development methods such as Scrum

Cons:

At times the application seems rather sluggish and unresponsive, sometimes the service seems completely inaccessible.

Visually appealing and nice if you follow it's workflow

Pros:

Visually it's the best of what I've seen. So many project management applications look terrible, so Taiga is refreshing in that aspect. The user story vs task is a good fit when your workflow matches that - ie making user stories first, adding them to a sprint, adding specific tasks to them. Open source is always a good thing. I messed around with the api a little bit and it seemed easy enough to use.

Cons:

I was never able to actually convince a workplace to switch to Taiga because it lacks the level of customization that some other project management tools have. I don't use it personally because Gitlab has such nice project management tools built in and I love having everything in one system. Taiga seems to be positioned in between the simple but integrated tools of Gitlab and the complex/ugly interfaces of Redmine. Being placed in the middle makes it not a great fit for any particular project. Taiga shines when using the User Story + Sprint + tasks breakdown. However not every project needs that. Using just the kanban board helps - but Taiga doesn't really mimic the custom workflows that an app like Redmine or Jira can do.

I'm using this software as developer team manager. Everyone like it in the team.

Comments: A great Agile organisation helper.

Pros:

It's made by developers for developers. Very well thought and made. The philosophy is very comprehensible. And more, with a great U/X skill.

Cons:

The price who exploded this year ! Considering the size of our team, we can't follow ! However, there could be only a little change that make us happy and still paying : don't make us pay inactive users (and handle the feature of inactive users of course)!

You can manage your projects using one single application.

Comments: It help us to mange our projects & practice the agile process. This is a very good tool to use for an software company.

Pros:

1. Team board inspire the employees to achieve their targets. 2. KANBAN board is a very useful part of the taiga. Because you can have the idea about your project status & you can manage the tasks. 3. You can get a idea about all the project tasks using the backlog & also its provide the overall summary. 4. The notifications are display on the Timeline & by clicking on the users name & available links system can redirect to the mention issues & users action history.

Cons:

1. Its feel like screens are more complicated. For a user it will take time to adopt with the system & mange them.

Good entry level agile project management tool

Pros:

I find Tiaga as a entry level project management tool with few most wanted features for a reasonable price. I also includes a free trial version which you can try and see whether it fits your requirements. Kanban boards are very easy to use.

Cons:

- Contains only basic set of features compared to its' competitors - Navigating within the tool takes some time to get used to. Therefore, can improve user experience bit more

Helped us get more organized on the issues and enhancements

Pros:

1. The current plan of 5 projects without restriction on the number of users for a fixed monthly price was good for us. 2. The tagging and search feature is very good 3. Ability to add Custom attributes is also very good

Cons:

1. I got an email recently that the current plan will not be offered next year. We will be charged per user. We may look at other options. 2. No integration with TFS.

Brilliant tool and easily customised!

Pros:

I love this tool, it's easy to see everything and the time feed of what's recently been changed or updated is brilliant!

Cons:

I really dont have any faults with this products. It might be a bug but the only things is getting rid of the customise box once you've customised.

Great tool

Comments: Great planning tool

Pros:

Great replacement for Trello. Much easier to use than Atlassian. Useful kanban board. Can add lots of tags.

Cons:

Cant estimate user stories in hours and measure progress. Also would be great to see issues on the same kanban board as user stories.

User friendly project management tool. Great for smaller teams.

Pros:

Very easy to use. Most functionality is intuitive and does a great job of giving you visuals of each task. A better version of trello.

Cons:

This is a great project for smaller teams and use cases. Like Trello, when getting into much more complex setups (different teams, projects within projects, sprints etc), the feature set isn't as developed as a product like JIRA or target process.

IMHO: the best agile tool out there!

Comments: It's super easy to use, introduce to a team and just super fun to work with. Go give it a try yourself!
