The problem
Why task tools fall short for project management
Why teams replace scattered task tools with all-in-one project management software - and what changes after the switch to Orangescrum.

QA
Scattered across tools
Tasks in one app, time in another, docs in a third - nothing lines up.
One unified platform
Boards, time, resources, budget, docs, and QA together in one place.
No line of sight into cost
Work ships, but nobody sees hours vs budget until it's already over.
Live cost visibility
Cost vs budget, profitability, and billable hours on every project.
Over-allocation & silent delays
People are overloaded and slips only surface at the deadline.
Utilization heatmaps
Workload heatmaps and automation flag risk before it slips.
Agile vs delivery disconnect
Sprints look healthy while the overall plan quietly drifts.
Agile plus portfolio, in one
Scrum and Kanban run alongside Gantt, milestones, and portfolio views.
Paying per seat to grow
Adding clients, contractors, or a whole team spikes the bill.
Unlimited users, flat price
Unlimited users on every paid plan - your bill doesn't grow with your team.
Why Orangescrum
Everything teams want from a project management tool - without the per-seat bill
Three things most project management tools make you choose between. Orangescrum gives you all of them.

No per-seat pricing
Unlimited Users

AI-powered · MCP-native
AI Project Management, Built In - and MCP-Native
Most tools are racing to add AI agents - and charging you per seat for them. Orangescrum's AI works for your whole team at no per-seat cost, reads your live project data, and connects to the AI tools you already use.
In-product AI Chat
Chat with your projects
Ask plain-English questions about tasks, sprints, blockers, and team workload - and let AI take actions like logging time or creating tasks. It reads your live data, so it doesn't guess.
Sprint health on demand - blockers, overdue tasks, velocity at a glance
Log time and create or update tasks from a chat prompt
Confirmation gates - AI never changes data silently
What's blocking the Q3 launch?
3 tasks are blocked: API integration (in review), QA signoff, and landing copy. Want me to ping the owners?
Log 2 hours on the design task

MCP Server
Open AI, not a walled garden
Other tools lock you into their own proprietary agent. Orangescrum implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP) - an open standard - so you connect Claude Desktop, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, or any MCP client directly to your workspace. Bring the AI you already use.
72 MCP tools - read projects, tasks, timelogs, team; create & update
Built-in prompts - daily standup and overdue report
Switch AI providers anytime - OpenAI, Anthropic (Claude), or Google Gemini

Project Management Software FAQ
Project management basics
What is Orangescrum?
Orangescrum is project management software with unlimited users, built-in AI, and no per-seat pricing, available in the cloud or self-hosted on your own servers. Teams use it to plan work with Agile boards and Gantt charts, track time and resources, manage budgets, and deliver client projects - all in one platform.
Switching & comparisons
Is Orangescrum a good alternative to Jira?
Yes. Teams switch from Jira to Orangescrum for flat pricing with unlimited users instead of per-seat licenses, a simpler interface for non-technical teams, and a fully self-hosted option. Free guided migration moves your projects, tasks, and users across.
What is the best self-hosted alternative to Jira Data Center after end-of-life?
Atlassian closed new Jira Data Center sales on March 30, 2026. Existing customers can buy expansions and renewals only until March 30, 2028, and full end of life is March 28, 2029, when instances become read-only. That middle date is the one most self-hosted teams miss, because it caps growth two years before the lights go out. Orangescrum's self-hosted edition runs on your own infrastructure (on-premise, private cloud, or air-gapped) with agile boards, sprints, and unlimited users, and includes free guided migration from Jira.
How is Orangescrum different from Asana, monday.com, and ClickUp?
Orangescrum combines three things none of them offer together: unlimited users with flat pricing (all three charge per seat), a self-hosted edition (all three are cloud-only), and an open MCP Server that connects any AI assistant to your projects. It focuses on practical project management - boards, Gantt, time, resources, and budgets - without re-platforming your whole company.
Is Orangescrum open source?
No. Orangescrum's current cloud and self-hosted editions are commercial software. The self-hosted edition gives you full data control on your own infrastructure - but self-hosted is not the same as open source. If data ownership is your goal, self-hosted Orangescrum delivers it with enterprise support included.
Pricing, AI & getting started
How much does Orangescrum cost?
Orangescrum uses flat, plan-based pricing with unlimited users - you pay for the plan, not per person. Paid plans are $29, $69, and $349 per month (save 10% with annual billing), plus a Free Forever plan and custom Enterprise pricing. A team of 5 or 500 pays the same flat price.
Does Orangescrum really offer unlimited users?
Yes. Every paid plan includes unlimited users - team members, clients, and contractors - at no per-seat cost, so your bill stays predictable as your team grows.
Is Orangescrum free?
Yes. Orangescrum has a Free Forever plan with 1 project and 1 user - no credit card required - plus a free trial of the paid plans. Paid plans start at $29 per month with unlimited users.
Does Orangescrum have AI features?
Yes. Orangescrum includes a built-in AI Chat - ask plain-English questions about tasks, sprints, blockers, and workload, and take actions like logging time or creating tasks - plus an MCP Server that connects AI clients like Claude Desktop, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot directly to your projects.
Can AI assistants like Claude or ChatGPT connect to Orangescrum?
Yes. Orangescrum's MCP Server lets AI assistants such as Claude Desktop, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot read and update your projects through 72 tools using the open Model Context Protocol. On the self-hosted edition you can also bring your own LLM - OpenAI, Anthropic (Claude), or Google Gemini.
Can I migrate from Jira, Asana, or monday.com?
Yes. Our team provides guided migration - data mapping, import tooling, and validation - from Jira, Asana, monday.com, Trello, Basecamp, and MS Project.
Is my data secure?
Orangescrum is GDPR-compliant and ISO 27001-certified, with SSO/SAML, LDAP, admin-enforced 2FA, role-based access control, and audit logs. The hosted edition runs on SOC 2 Type II compliant infrastructure (AWS / Azure / GCP); self-hosted keeps all data inside your own infrastructure.
Can I run Orangescrum on my own servers?
Yes. Orangescrum is also available self-hosted - on-premise, private cloud, or fully air-gapped - for teams that need full data control. Most teams start using Orangescrum right away with no setup; see the self-hosted page if you need to host it yourself.
