About Taiga

Taiga is an open source project management tool built specifically for agile development teams. It supports both Scrum and Kanban methodologies with a clean, focused interface.

True Agile Tool

Unlike general-purpose project managers, Taiga was designed around agile practices. Scrum teams get backlogs, sprints, and burndown charts. Kanban teams get configurable boards with WIP limits.

What You Get

  • Unlimited projects - No cap on the number of projects (self-hosted)
  • Scrum boards - Backlogs, sprints, user stories, and burndown charts
  • Kanban boards - Visual boards with swimlanes and WIP limits
  • Issue tracking - Bug and issue management with custom severities
  • Wiki - Built-in documentation for each project
  • Epics - Group related user stories into larger initiatives

What to Know

Self-hosting is free with no limits. The cloud free tier has restrictions on team size and features. Taiga has a smaller community than tools like Jira or Linear, but the agile implementation is solid and the interface stays focused on what matters.

The free plan in practice

What you can actually do on Taiga's free plan (Unlimited if self-hosted), where it stops, and when it's worth paying.

  • Scrum & Kanban
  • Issue tracking
  • Wiki
  • Video conferencing integration

Where it stops

  • Self-hosting for unlimited

When to upgrade to a paid plan

Taiga is open source, so self-hosting is free and unlimited. The only reason to pay is convenience: choose a hosted or cloud option when you'd rather not run and maintain it yourself, or need official support.
