An open-source alternative to Asana

Plane is the one project in our catalog listed as a replacement for Asana. It is project management software with 61.8K GitHub stars. Below is how it measures against the questions people usually ask first.

Plane

Project management

Projects, knowledge, and workflows together.

Plane gives product and engineering teams several levels at which to organize delivery. Work items belong to projects and can roll into cycles, modules, and epics; custom views help teams focus the list, while initiatives, teamspaces, pages, and wiki content add planning and knowledge above individual tasks.

  • Organize work items through projects, cycles, modules, and epics
  • Create filtered views, pages, teamspaces, initiatives, and wiki content
  • Use the AGPL Community edition on your infrastructure; evaluate commercial and air-gapped options separately

What people use it for

Run a product delivery cycle

Capture work items, assign ownership and status, group the work into a time-boxed cycle, and use project views to monitor what is ready, active, blocked, or complete.

Coordinate a larger product initiative

Connect projects, epics, modules, and milestones under an initiative so leaders and delivery teams can share a higher-level view without losing issue-level detail.

Keep plans and knowledge beside the work

Use pages, teamspaces, and wiki content for briefs, decisions, and references, then link that material to the projects and work items it informs.
