"Worked with Taiga for over a year working as a senior software developer/scrum master."
What do you like best about Taiga?

I really liked the presentation and organization of Taiga, especially the way that they organized the sprints and the icebox where you define the upcoming stories. Also the chance to install the software in our in house server instead of the cloud version was a big plus. During our use of the application, it was updated with custom fields, which we began using at the moment since this was something we always said that the application needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Taiga?

I didn't really had any dislikes with the software, it was great and easy to use. Even after I left my job, I liked Taiga so much that I kept using it in their cloud version. The use is not that heavy as I don't have that many stories in my personal projects, but still can find its use in a personal environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The Future of Project Management"
What do you like best about Taiga?

Taiga's best feature is that it's free. Second to this, Taiga excels in the KANBAN area. It's also very easy to use and nice to introduce to new users. Taiga is simpler than JIRA but more complex than Trello, and that's our biggest selling point. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Taiga?

Taiga's very slow sometimes. The UI for it, being all AJAX-y, leaves something to be wanted. Aside from that, Taiga's idea of user stories is something that our team has trouble implementing properly. We just can't get a good workflow with the idea of user stories - it's too 'specific'.

"A betatiful, simple and complete agile software tool"
What do you like best about Taiga?

Taiga has a really beautiful user interface, with features easy to find and use. The agile software method presented by Taiga is easy and functional. I speed up the software development time and quality applying Taiga on my team.

The community of Taiga on GutHub is active and committed to help new users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Taiga?

Taiga presents few reports. It's difficult to show for my product manager the flow status of my project with the current default reports. But there are a excellent API to extract data and build my own reports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Quite good but we are not yet ready for it."
What do you like best about Taiga?

The different sections to manage projects differently. The boards and the functionality for sprints were awesome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Taiga?

Being a UI/UX designer I kind of like and dislike few things. Please improve the onboarding process and make it bit light looking using proper typography and colors. And if you want our team can help you with this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best agile project management software I’ve used"
What do you like best about Taiga?

Taiga is easy to set up, very flexible and open source. We’re using it self hosted on our own infrastructure. It fits for both larger and small projects. The interface is fast and well designed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Taiga?

Taiga is a bit chatty with e-mails. When you’re subscribed to an item you get a lot of emails when something has changed. It would be great to be able to just subscribe to certain events in user stories or issues.

Taiga is not optimized for mobile devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Functional and Basic, but Taiga is a great pilot tool for teams just starting Kanban development."
What do you like best about Taiga?

Simple and doesn't overwhelm the users. There are other tools that throw A LOT at the user right away, and to a team just starting Agile practices, that can be really daunting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Taiga?

The "Nice and Simple" goes to only a certain extent. While Taiga is open-source and you could modify it as you want, it fails at really allowing you to customize the tool properly. Agile is modified with every team, and I wish Taiga allowed more for teams to do that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Better alternative from overloaded enterprise-centered solutions."
What do you like best about Taiga?

The performance of the application is one of its biggest advantages. I have experience with Atlassian's Jira that runs much slower. Taiga seems lightweight, fast and easier to navigate. UX is just tremendously better than what Jira is offering. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Taiga?

Hard to pinpoint for now, but I've had to name something then it'd be the wiki section. It would be useful to have a tree view of pages. Currently, it's flat and it could encourage project's chaotic wiki structure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simple and usable project management tool, having a modern design and lots of flexibility built in."
What do you like best about Taiga?

The flexibility it offers in modifying the working environment, and the fact that is open-source Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Taiga?

It is still a very young project so there are some things that should be improved. For example, not being able to create a tree-like structure of the documentation is one of those. Another one is not being able to assign one member to more teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good PM Tool"
What do you like best about Taiga?

The way Taiga team decided to approach at Project Management. The gamification in act when using the tool. The quick curve of learning. The simple UX. The possibility to add Kanban management to Lean development. The team's reward system. The way to share understanding. The community around the tool, It's open source! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Taiga?

I don't like the interface of the tool, in particular the typeface and the choice of colors.

I also din't like the fact you must understand Agile development methodology to use the tool in an effective way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
