✅️ Successful #meetings are more than discussions. They are about #outcomes you can prove at any time. With OpenProject, you document decisions audit-proof: from agendas to responsibilities, linked tasks, and now structured PDF exports – ready for printing, if needed.

A game changer not only for the public sector.

What is "dogfooding"? 🐶

In this short video, Senior Software Engineer Jan Sandrink shares what he loves most about working at OpenProject and explains what dogfooding means and how we use it to continuously improve our product.

Jan is not just a true professional but an embodiment of our company values, and the king of reviews. 👑

After a break, Jan decided to return to the team, and we’re so glad to have him back! 🙌

Welcome back, Jan!

🤝 Together with public institutions across Europe, we’re proud to be building a future where project management is secure, transparent, and truly collaborative.

Many cities and municipalities already use OpenProject to coordinate their teams and projects, all while staying in full control of their data. And the list keeps growing. Thank you for your continuous trust! 💙

Yes, we build open source project management software. And we love it.

This May, our team came together near Lake Wolzig. We looked ahead at our roadmap, dove into product conversations, shared plenty of laughs, and more.

Love from the OpenProject team — always building, always playing.
