Orangescrum

Orangescrum is a project management and collaboration tool offered in Cloud, Self-Hosted, and free open-source editions. The open-source Community edition (GPLv3, written in CakePHP) provides task management, project planning, agile/Scrum boards, document sharing, time tracking, Gantt charts, and collaboration, and self-hosts on a PHP stack. It is developed by Andolasoft; the free Community edition is limited to 5 users, with paid self-hosted Enterprise and Cloud editions removing that cap and adding features.

Our verdict

Last verified Jun 15, 2026

A genuinely free, self-hostable GPLv3 PM tool with a solid feature set (boards, Gantt, time tracking) and an established vendor (Andolasoft) for upgrade paths. Held back materially by the 5-user cap on the free Community edition, a dated UI, and an open-source repo that lags the commercial editions.
