5pm is a well known project management software. It offers task management, Gantt charts and reporting functions, but lacks several functions that OpenProject offers. Therefore, OpenProject is the best 5pm open source alternative.
What does OpenProject offer?
OpenProject and 5pm both offer classic project management features. However, OpenProject also enables agile and hybrid project management, such as Scrum or Kanban and supports communication through meetings and wiki. 5pm is only available as a cloud solution and does not offer a self-hosted version. OpenProject is an open source solution and offers an on-premises edition. Take a look at the comparison table and see for yourself.
We are open source
While OpenProject is open source, 5pm is not. Open source can be the more secure and more cost efficient option. It provides absolute transparency and high flexibility levels. This article on choosing an open source software further elaborates on the advantages over a proprietary solution.
Host your own on-premises edition
With its strong commitment to data privacy and information security, OpenProject offers self-hosting through the Enterprise on-premises edition with a powerful API integration, highest security levels and allows to comply with the strictest data security regulations and ensures reliability. 5pm does not offer an on-premises solution.
No compromises in data protection
If you decide to go with the cloud edition, you can be sure that your data is safe. OpenProject is based in the EU, is GDPR compliant by default and stores all of the data in the EU. 5pm stores its data in the US.
