OpenProject, as an open-source software, provides users with full control over the source code, ensuring they are not dependent on any specific vendor. This flexibility is beneficial for organizations with unique requirements or those looking to customize the software to better fit their workflows.

Why is OpenProject better than Monday.com for project management
If you are searching for an open source alternative to Monday.com with an option to self-host, look no further.
We are open source
While OpenProject is open source, Monday.com 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. Monday does not offer an on-premises solution.
