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

    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.

    It splits the task view and selected task's summary view so that they are both visible at the same time. One less click to see the information you need.

    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.

    Provides an alternative way to organise and view tasks and activities. The hierarchical lists, ease of assignment and tagging provide a nice way to slice work and information a different way. Task based lists can be easier when working with client areas who understand task driven activity easier then story based. The tree structure allows for a more logical break down.

    This is so powerful. It combines task lists and kanban. Though not strictly a congruent substitute for Trello. It might even be better for some people.

    Trello lacks a place to dump all the ideas and organize them later. what I mean is like a task list view. Quire(https://quire.io) has a task list view. my team and I can dump all our ideas and tasks in the list and later on move the crucial ones to board view for execution. Yep, that's right! Quire has Kanban board too! which is awesome and a win win situation! I really recommend Quire to the small creative teams out there, it can really improve the productivity!
