Self-hosted collaboration like Trello

Question

Due to privacy and data security guidelines I need to switch my team collaboration over to something self-hosted. Can anyone recommend the right tool for a scenario like this:

• Self hosted, open-source preferred, but not mandatory
• Free, or paid-once preferred
• Kanban preferred, eventually with agile/classic list option
• PHP+SQL, no server framework like sandstorm

I have looked at:

• Trello, perfect, but not self-hosted
• Wekan (aka Libreboard), perfect, but sandstormed, email integration missing
• Taiga, super good, didnt find info on email integration

Answer 1

I've ended up looking at Taiga and 92five, both lacking some features. After two days of research I recommend myself (and to you so you don't have to redo all the research): JetBrains YouTrack or The Bug Genie, from which I prefer the former.

Answer 2

I've tried a lot, some of which:

• wekan - couldn't install it. huge problems with installation scripts and dependencies. the dev team ignore it blaming the "build environment"
• restya - after waiting an hour for installation script to run, it looked great.. then with no use whatsoever, started redirecting each page to the logout page across every browser. shame.
• orangescrumm - untrustworthy developers. will not use.
• kanboard - initially looks horrid, but simple, fast, very extensible, well written and with a bit of css, looks magic. Lots of plugins exist for it and if it doesn't you can write you own using the 'hooks' system.

Subsequently, I recommend Kanboard - kanboard.net
