Redmine is a project management and task tracking tool used by the external vendor that my company has made a partnership with it. I mainly used Redmine to review the project progress and the issues from the client raised to the third party software vendor and liaised between our partner and the customer for the issue escalation, first level technical support, follow-up for the second and third level support from the partner vendor and finally informed back to the end-user customer.

Our organization currently uses Redmine as a project management tool and to track feature requests, track development and bugs, to make notes on upcoming / newly released software versions, to document changes in our hardware/products, and also for a wiki which allows our employees to search for specific processes or procedures pertaining to specific tasks.

It is being used in our group for project management including git repositories, files, documentation, etc. It is very suitable for our projects because one can have everything integrated into the same platform and we can work as a team with distinct levels of access for the different members in different projects.

We use Redmine across our organization between different departments. Initially, it was only used internally between sales, engineering, and project management teams. When we got more involved with certain customers and more back-and-forth was becoming cumbersome in emails, we moved the customers to start using the ticketing systems to alert us to any issues and keep track of their feature developments through transparency offered in Redmine tickets.

Major Use-Cases:
  • Priority assignments for developers .
  • Internal organization for resource management.
  • Communication between customer and project manager for status updates.
  • Quick reference for past issues.

Our organization uses Redmine to track employees' work hours and make monthly reports. We have different projects with tasks there that are being created by a project manager. It's pretty simple to track your time and manage tasks, but Redmine is not very user-friendly and may cause different misunderstandings during work. But it is free to use, and that makes it useful for small organizations

Redmine is a great product to have in an organization: It's extremely flexible, costs much less to maintain than Remedy, and is a far faster experience than other products on the market (i.e. Remedy, ServiceNow)

The primary issues that Redmine addresses are: flexible platform, API, open source and highly configurable, stability

In our company, we use Redmine for IT project management, including activities, tasks, schedules and time spent by each individual on each activity/task. We have a project manager that is responsible for creating the projects and delegating appropriate access. After that, every employee is responsible for checking delegated tasks, inputting the time spent and writing down any relevant notes. When a project is finished, all necessary information is on Redmine so managers can evaluate the development process.

I have used Redmine in a number of organizations as well as with a number of open-source projects. Redmine is a top-tier project management tool allowing users to track issues and plan releases. I've used Redmine within developer organizations, support organizations, and as a general purpose project management tool. Redmine is a free, open-source tool that can be rapidly deployed and requires little day-to-day support to keep it running.

Redmine is used by the entire organization to manage projects and log time. Redmine provides one source for all resource management. We do have a PM who is in charge of Resource Management and she uses it more than anyone.

We've been using Redmine for at least 6 years as main project management solution in our company. As a free solution, it's a good task and time management system which allows you to be on the same page across the whole organization. Gantt charts and calendar are very useful. Notifications help you focus on the right things.

Redmine is a fantastic tool. In our organization it began to serve as a tracking tool for the development bugs we had in different applications that we are doing, but the interesting thing was that little by little we realized that it is a tool that does not is only for this use but with its great power of integration with other tools we realized that in one solution we could cover many solutions. We use an integration with Git by means of ssh, integration with Malyn Task Incubator for Eclipse and thus are able to have integration be continuous, since we integrate with Maven, Nexus, Jenkins, and SonarLint, and we are able to have a very optimal development in applications developed under Java in this case. Besides that the quality team can assign tasks to the corresponding department. It is one of the most complete tools that I have used. It also has the option of documenting since it has a built-in wiki, which makes it possible to have everything documented to perfection. Besides being developed in Ruby, ​​it allows you to download the source code and customize your Redmine for your company.
