Windshift

Open source · OSI-approvedStatus: unknownNew

Open-source work management that connects delivery, product, and business teams

Alternative to Jira

Windshift is an open-source work-management platform for software teams that pairs issue tracking with Scrum and Kanban planning. Teams run it on their own infrastructure under a free self-hosted core and add paid Pro capabilities for analytics, integrations, and enterprise controls.

Its maker positions it directly against Jira, publishing migration tooling and comparison pages for Jira Cloud and Data Center alongside the core boards, backlog, and sprint workflow.
