Development teams work on several projects at once, often for several clients. Issues, repositories, environments and support run in parallel. Keeping an overview needs a system where that comes together.
Redmine covers it, from the issue through the commit to the report. We operate it for you, in our cloud in Germany or on your server.
What your team does with it
- Sprints and boards. The Reporting plugin brings a task board with swimlanes and WIP limits, plus burndown charts per version. The board also works across projects.
- Source code on the issue. The DevOps plugin connects GitLab and GitHub. Commits appear on the matching issue, deployments stay traceable.
- Recurring work by rule. The Automation plugin creates issues, assigns them and sets statuses. Typical cases: release preparation, onboarding, date reminders.
- Client requests in the same system. With the ServiceDesk plugin, a support email becomes an issue in the right project, with the reply sent from the system.
- Credentials in the team. The Passwords plugin manages credentials by role, instead of in a second application.
- Keep knowledge in the project. Decisions, setups and operating notes live in the project wiki, not in one person’s chat history.
What that means day to day
- Cloud in Germany or your own server. With InHouse operation, SSH access restricted to our IP is enough.
- Redmine and GitLab from one provider. One contact, one server location, connected through the DevOps plugin.
- No user limits. Whether 50 or 500 people work in it, the hosting costs the same.
- We handle the updates. Security patches every four hours, major versions only after a plugin check.
Prices are listed openly on the hosting page, GitLab has its own overview.
