Good to know: Enterprise+ Bundle and Add-Ons
The difference between firmly included plugins and bookable features.
Enterprise+ Bundle
All Enterprise+ Plugins are usable in every hosting package and stay active throughout the contract period. No monthly surcharge per plugin since they are part of the hosting fee.
Add-Ons
Add-Ons are billed monthly and separately. After uninstallation the associated features are no longer available. Some Add-Ons are already included in higher-tier packages.
Included in the Enterprise+ Bundle
Commercial AlphaNodes plugins - included in all hosting packages, activate as needed
Automation & ServiceDesk included in all packages - own SMTP server required.
Available Add-Ons
Monthly fee, already included in higher-tier packages
Gantt Add-On
Drag-and-drop Gantt planning
99 EUR / month
Redmine AI Hosting
GDPR-compliant local AI infrastructure for companies with strict data protection requirements. Can be added to any hosting package.
Test environments
Parallel Redmine instance for tests, data modeling, and training
An additional test environment can be booked with every hosting package. It runs in parallel to the production environment and is suitable for data modeling, performance tests, plugin tests, and training. Setup and maintenance are handled analogous to the production environment. Setup is charged one-time based on effort. You will find the monthly price in the optional services table below.
Add-Ons are available exclusively in production environments and cannot be activated in test environments. You will find details about the individual Add-Ons on the respective product pages.
Optional services
Additional services that can be booked on demand with any hosting package.
Access Security: Access to all applications is provided by default via password-based authentication and can optionally be additionally secured through Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA). Additional authentication methods such as Single Sign-On (SSO) are available upon request. All systems work with role-based access controls for granular permission management.
Operations & Compliance: As a GDPR-compliant German company, we perform regular security updates and create automated, encrypted backups of your data. Our servers are located exclusively in German data centers, ensuring that all data is subject to German data protection laws and no third-country transfers take place.
Plugins: In addition, selected community plugins are used that enable more productive work (e.g., additionals, additional_tags).
Updates: Updates (Redmine minor releases, Redmine plugins) are applied regularly and promptly after automatic and/or manual review. Redmine major releases are applied after manual compatibility review and internal testing. Security updates are checked and applied at the system level (Linux) every four hours (if available).
Q: Which version? The complete database, as we use BorgBackup. The complete database is always restored if necessary (individual issues, wiki pages, or file attachments are not possible due to the Redmine architecture).
Q: Time range? The last 2 days / 1 set from the last week / 1 set from the last month.
Q: Who performs the restore? Restoring backups is part of our service. We take care of it for you when it becomes necessary.
The costs for inclusion in our monthly application maintenance (incl. review, update deployment, and compatibility check) vary depending on the plugin. We will inform you of the exact costs in an individual offer.
Third-party plugins: A valid customer support license (for commercial plugins) and compatibility with the existing system are required. We reserve the right to reject a plugin request if security, compatibility, or updates would be compromised.
Additional costs: For the use of plugins that are not provided and maintained by us, one-time costs for integration or uninstallation as well as monthly additional costs may apply.
Add-Ons: Add-Ons are billed separately on a monthly basis and are exclusively usable within the scope of the hosting contract. After cancellation of the hosting contract or individual Add-Ons, the associated plugins are uninstalled and their functions are no longer available. A transfer to a standalone Support License is not possible.
Redmine data (Cloud): After cancellation of a booked Managed Application Hosting Cloud package, access to the application is blocked at the end of the term and the data (including backups) is irrevocably deleted. The customer is therefore expressly required to save or export their data on their own in good time before the end of the term, or to arrange a migration of the data (e.g., backup) to another system (see Terms and Conditions).
Add-Ons such as AI Add-On, SAML / SSO Add-On, Gantt Add-On, Productivity Bundle, or ClamAV Add-On are not available in test environments and can only be booked and used in the production environment.
The following Add-Ons are currently available for monthly booking:
- Productivity Bundle - Extends Redmine with three plugins: Mentions Plugin (enhanced @-notifications), Collapse Closed Issues Plugin (hide closed issues), and Issue Checklists Plugin (structured checklists within issues).
- Gantt Add-On - Drag-and-drop Gantt planning, ideal for project managers and roadmap communication.
- AI Add-On - Unlocks all AI features in Redmine. With an active Add-On, you can connect your AI provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure OpenAI, Google Gemini, Ollama, and others) and use AI-powered issue analyses, summaries, text generation, and more. Not available in Cloud Basic due to hardware constraints.
- SAML / SSO Add-On - Activates Single Sign-On in Redmine. Supports Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, Google, Keycloak, Shibboleth, and others - fully configurable via the web interface.
- ClamAV Add-On - Virus scanning for attachments. Security Add-On for companies with compliance requirements.
- Mentions Plugin - Enhanced @-mentions in comments. The notification email contains the full comment text, a dedicated subject line, and reaches people outside the project as well. Mentions in private notes also trigger a notification.
- Collapse Closed Issues Plugin - Closed subtasks and related issues are hidden by default and shown as a badge. Reduces page length on issues with many completed subtasks without losing information.
- Issue Checklists Plugin - Structured checklists directly within the issue: create and check off items, sort via drag & drop, progress bar, reusable templates, and optional lock when closing an issue with open items.
Time tracking (including stopwatch function) is now fully part of the Enterprise+ Bundle via the Timesheet Plugin and is included in every hosting package.
The plugins included in the hosting package (Enterprise+ Bundle) remain active for the entire term of the hosting contract and cannot be canceled individually.
Cost savings: Internal installation and maintenance require specialized IT staff, server hardware, software licenses, and extensive maintenance, including the provision of security updates. External providers like us amortize these costs across many clients and offer more cost-effective, scalable solutions. Regular updates are professionally managed, freeing up internal resources and minimizing the risk of outdated software and associated security vulnerabilities.
Focus on core business: Internal IT can concentrate on the company's core competencies instead of spending valuable time managing and maintaining web applications. As your external hosting provider, we assume full responsibility for availability, security, and regular updates, relieving internal IT of administrative tasks and allowing them to focus on more strategically important projects. This also prevents crucial security updates for Redmine or other applications from being neglected. And in case of questions or problems, we are your competent contact for both technical and user support requests.
