If you are looking for something that does "more than just git" and if being open source is valuable to you, you can have a look at Tuleap[1].
It comes with git and svn for source control, built-in tracking technology (big difference with redmine/jira, anyone can customize models & workflows), code review with gerrit, agile dashboard for scrum (kanban on going). Last but not least, it does scale quite well (10k users, 200k tickets, TB of git repo, ...)
Looks nice! A hint though: I was looking for an open source tool and I didn't stumble across yours, so you might want to put some effort in SEO, presence on blogs,...
I find the information on your download page (https://www.tuleap.org/try-and-go) a bit confusing. What do you charge for? I need to know that up-front before investing my time... There are many products which are "free" until you need some (basic) functionality.
Also, you might want to check spelling on that (and probably other) page(s), but I don't personally mind that. :)
Thanks for the feedback, indeed we are not very know yet but we try to improve (I've heard this place is good at it :D).
Tuleap is 100% libre and open source, you don't have to pay anything to use it. All the things you see on tuleap.org are immediatly available and usable without "freemium" or "open core" principle.
Thanks for the answer - I misunderstood completely. This is the text that confused me:
> There is no differences between an “evaluation” and an “enterprise” version. We want you to experience the full power of the Tuleap software. Just follow the instructions to install your instance.
The way I understood it there are two versions, "enterprise" and "evaluation", and there is no difference between them (well, except for probably price, support and maybe some other hidden goodies). So next thing I tried to find info on this "enterprise" version, and could find none. :)
I would suggest you word it a bit differently... Your answer is much better at conveying the business model than the current page.
I am more or less in the market (and evaluating) such tool suite and I must admit that I am pretty impressed at what you have here. However if I can find one downside of the UI is the lack of sheen; things that other tools out there (that get often 'promoted' on HN have).
I've been Jira user / Jira consultant for some time (around 3.x - 4.x versions). And I loved the tool then. I don't have the same sentiment any more and mostly find it bloated.
At the moment I'm daily Redmine and YouTrack[1] user and find both of them much more superior.
Personally I think YT is one of the most user friendly tools out there, but I also find it quite limited and lacking (especially in regards to reporting and time management). However it seems it's being addressed with 6.x version (it's still not at the point I would like it to be, but hopefully the trend will continue).
At the moment I don't see any viable and full-featured alternatives to Redmine frankly, which is disappointing. I like the tool, however it could be more user friendly (modern) and easier to maintain (at least for non Ruby guy). I'm considering to give a OpenProject[2] a trial demo someday, maybe things are better there (basically it's another Redmine fork).
Regarding Redmine performance - yes it could be better. However it my experience it does scale quite decently (e.g. Jira used to have major problems with it, please bear in mind my experience with the tool is ~3 years old, hopefully it's somewhere addressed currently). In one of our Redmine setups we have around 41k issues and we do not experience any major problems with it.
