Open source alternatives · Productivity

Asana costs US$10.99 per user monthly. OpenProject is the open-source project suite with Gantt, kanban, and budgets.

**What the paid app costs:** US$10.99/user/mo

## Why switch?

Project management per-seat pricing punishes growing teams. OpenProject gives unlimited users the full suite, timelines, sprints, wikis, on your own server. Growing the team never grows the bill.
