Redmine is about as unfashionable and as durable as project trackers get. It was released in 2006, it is written in Ruby on Rails, and it runs on a modest virtual machine for the price of a couple of hyperscaler seats, with no limit on users.
Your issues, time entries, wiki and the years of discussion behind your current process all sit in a PostgreSQL database on a disk that belongs to you. There is no export window, no seat audit and no pricing change to absorb.
How we run it
The whole installation is a NixOS module in your repository: Ruby version, gems, plugins, PostgreSQL, nginx, TLS and the backup schedule. Rebuilding the server from scratch is one command, and an upgrade is a commit that can be reverted.
We migrate the data with history preserved, including issue numbers, attachments, timestamps, authors and relations. We restore-test the backups on a schedule and send you the evidence, since you only know a backup works once it has been restored.
Beyond the default install
Redmine adapts well. We set up custom trackers for regulated workflows, time reporting that matches your invoicing, a REST API feeding your own dashboards, and an issue tracker your local LLM can query without sending your roadmap to a third party.
The long-form case
Why we reach for these in particular: the comparison tables, the numbers, and the situations where we would tell you to pick something else.
