Why is Easy Redmine the #1 Jira self-hosted alternative?
Agile & Waterfall project management in one platform
Easy Redmine Agile project management gives Jira users everything they’re used to—and even more with Waterfall features. Plan and track work on customizable Scrum and Kanban boards, manage backlogs and sprints, and link tasks with time tracking, resources, and reporting in just a few clicks.

Confluence self-hosted alternative
The Knowledge Base is a great alternative to Confluence. It centralises essential project, IT, and service information, making it easy for teams to access, share, and reuse know-how across all project phases, reducing duplication and speeding up issue resolution.

Jira Service Desk alternative
The HelpDesk in Easy Redmine integrates with project and service management, enabling efficient ticket handling, SLA tracking and faster issue resolution.
This alternative to Jira Service Desk lets users submit tickets via email or an intuitive interface. It sends automatic notifications, monitors SLA performance, and provides complete visibility into your support operations.

Software development with GitLab integration
While Jira integrates with Bitbucket, Easy Redmine offers native GitLab & GitHub integration. This brings repositories, merge requests, commits, and releases right into your project interface, giving your team complete visibility into development progress. All self-hosted, migration fully supported.
Setup is simple: name the repo, insert the URL and token, and then choose between automatic or manual syncing. This enables teams to link commit statuses and log time against tasks for better traceability and informed decision-making.

Workflow Automations & AI agents powered by n8n
With n8n integration you can connect Easy Redmine to over 1,000 apps and build no‑code workflows that sync tasks, trigger actions and reduce manual effort.
By embedding AI agents and automation workflows via n8n, your team can get real‑time alerts on risks, automatically escalate issues and standardise processes without constant supervision.
Case studies of Jira data migration to Easy Redmine

How a global IT company migrated data from on-premises Jira to Easy Redmine in just 2 weeks
IT services and consulting
When a technology-focused company found itself stuck with an unsupported Jira setup, the need for a secure, reliable alternative became urgent. With support from the Easy Redmine team and its built-in migrator, they managed to migrate 80% of their data within two weeks, all without giving direct server access, thanks to guided screen sharing.
The remaining 20%, including comments and attachments, which Jira could not export, and we could not import. Anyway, in just two weeks, their migration was almost fully complete, meeting both data protection and operational goals.

Frequently asked questions
Yes, Atlassian Data Center is going away and will reach its end of life on March 28, 2029. At that point, Data Center subscriptions will expire, and environments will become read-only, meaning no new updates, patches, or support will be provided.
This end-of-life applies to major Data Center products like Jira Software, Jira Service Management, Confluence, Bamboo, and Crowd, although Bitbucket Data Center is excluded and has a dual license model allowing cloud and Data Center use.
Atlassian Data Center is a self-managed, enterprise-grade deployment platform for Atlassian products designed to meet the mission-critical needs of large organizations. It represents the evolution of Atlassian's self-hosted offerings following the end of Server support, combining advanced technical architecture with comprehensive enterprise capabilities to deliver high availability, scalability, and operational control.
Jira’s flexibility and depth come with a steep learning curve and significant administrative overhead, as teams must master complex configurations and dedicate resources to ongoing maintenance. Large instances can suffer performance bottlenecks and require disruptive re-indexing, while licensing and add-on costs quickly escalate.
Over-customisation risks process fragmentation and upgrade headaches, and native reporting tools are limited without additional plugins or BI integrations. Finally, the crowded UI and integration complexity can hinder adoption and create data silos if not carefully managed.
The process involves not only transferring raw data but also cataloging various entities crucial for the PM tool's operation, such as task types and statuses. Optimizing resources, including CPU, RAM, and HDD, is vital for maintaining application performance post-migration. Inadequate resource allocation can lead to decreased performance and productivity.
Many teams seek alternatives due to Jira's complexity, cost, or specific feature needs. Several tools offer compelling options, each with unique strengths suited for different kinds of teams and workflows. Among them is Easy Redmine, which provides open source solutions to 25+ team members.
Organizations considering switching from Jira may find Easy Redmine particularly appealing due to its hybrid project management capabilities, extensive feature set, greater data control, and lower operational costs—all crucial factors for modern, security-conscious, and cost-sensitive teams.
