    It is open-source, you can self-host it (that is made even easier using sandstorm.io) and it protects your privacy.

    It looks great and works also great, but it eats many ressources

    It's just a trello clone but there are much better alternatives.

    Taiga is not comparable to Trello. Restyaboard and Wekan are the real alternatives to the Trello.

    It has functionality of kanban. It has another version of project of scrum. They are independent, so you can't have them together. I think it's worse than trello. In terms of Kanban, it has much less features.

    Same functionality, a simpler interface (debatable), but open source and without complex requirements.

    Open source, but no Ajax or any similarities with Trello. I'd rather prefer Wekan or Restyaboard

    Open source. Perhaps the only real alternative for Trello in this segment. They have nice comparison page against Trello http://restya.com/board/comparison

    Still in active development, has a lot of installation options, but have no packaged version for most common Linux systems, like Debian or Debian-based distros (Ubuntu), RedHat/Centos or derived distros. I mean It's not boxed yet, installation with shell script is really ugly now, in 21th century.

    Default color scheme is pink and in version I installed it's real pain to modify it to something more comfortable and convinient.

    very useful for those who use Trello for freelance public progress log (like art commissions or roadmaps). like Trello, Kan is public (with privacy settings), has change log history, works ok for mobile, but better because it's open source + normal freemium (no paywalled basic features) + it loads faster!!

    OpenProject is too complex to be a good alternative to Trello. It could be a good alternative to Microsoft Project instead.

    Trello is more intuitive and simple to use than OpenProject. Plus you do not have the same list structure as on Trello. I got lost alot on OpenProject while searching for a task.

    Super clean, customizable, and easy to use. I installed this on my mom's work computer to help her manage her tasks and her whole team is falling in love with it. The program has a free, personal windows app version or a team/company version that has either a free, self-hosted option or a paid cloud option. It's fantastic and I'm glad we found it.
