Other options I had was OnlyOffice and Trello, but they’re all cloud based. Our area suffers from internet instability, so if we were to use cloud based kanban for project management system, the whole business shuts down everytime the internet crashes.
For years we’ve been using a local network (independent of internet) for our information system (one server computer cable routed to some 10 client computers for the staff), just wanted to up the productivity by using a project management system on top of it.
The next best option I came across was VIKUNJA. The application seemed very promising, plus it’s opensource and self-hostable. But the tutorials I see always involve using the internet for self hosting it.
Is it possible to use this app in our local network instead? (The server computer OS is windows 10 pro). How do I go about setting it up? (Pretend I’m a 5 year old)
If this is the wrong sub for this, can anyone help me where’s the next best sub?
My suggestion: go the cheap way to see if it works. Specially as you mentioned as it is for team work.
Buy a Raspberry Pi or a cheap Mini PC. Install Nextcloud on it. With Nextcloud you can install “Decks” what is their Kanban solution.
Try it out for some days. If it works, you can add further collab tools to the system.
I own a RaspberryPi 400 and it has been running 24/7 for over one year. I dont know how a SBC computer works when multiple ppl work with it, but as this is a super cheap solution, it does not hurt if it doesn’t work.
