Frequently asked questions - FAQ

Is OpenProject free of charge?

We offer three different versions of OpenProject. Please get an overview of the different OpenProject Editions here. The (on-premise) OpenProject Community Edition is completely free. The Cloud and Enterprise Edition offer premium features, hosting and support and thus we are charging for it. Nevertheless, we offer free 14 days trials for the Enterprise and Cloud versions so that you can get to know their benefits. If you prefer to use the free OpenProject Community Edition, you can follow these installation instructions, please note that you need a Linux server to install the Community Edition. It is always possible to upgrade from the Community to the Cloud and Enterprise Edition – check out the premium features here.

How do I get access to the OpenProject premium features?

We offer the premium functions of OpenProject (incl. boards) for two different OpenProject variants:

  • For the OpenProject Cloud Edition (hosted by us),
  • For the self-hosted (on-premise) OpenProject Enterprise Edition

If you want to run OpenProject on your own server the OpenProject Enterprise Edition is the right option. Have you already installed the OpenProject Community Edition? If yes, you can request a trial license for the OpenProject Enterprise Edition by clicking on the button "Free trial license" and test the Enterprise Edition for 14 days for free.
