GForge review
A software-focused PM and DevOps suite with free access for up to five active users.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
GForge is a project management and DevOps platform for software teams, enterprises, PMOs, and regulated organizations. It brings project planning and ticket tracking together with Kanban boards, sprints, releases, milestones, burndown reporting, Git and Subversion hosting, code reviews, documentation, team chat, and API access. Its permission-scoped AI can assist with tickets, wiki pages, and sprints, making the product especially suited to teams that want planning and development work in one system.
Pricing is structured around a free edition, SaaS hosting, and Enterprise licensing. The Free plan costs $0 per plan and supports up to 5 active users, unlimited public projects, unlimited private projects, and full functionality with no time limit. The SaaS plan starts at $6 per user per month when billed monthly; the first 5 users are free, and the plan includes public and private projects, GForge hosting, and all features. Enterprise adds unlimited users, perpetual or annual licensing, dedicated support, and advanced integrations and compliance options. The published SaaS price can vary by team size, support level, and deployment requirements.
GForge’s main strength is its close fit with software delivery workflows. Teams can connect planning to Git or Subversion repositories, code reviews, pull requests, Jenkins CI/CD, wikis, chat, and REST API access, while Google OAuth and Microsoft OAuth support identity integration. Deployment flexibility also covers web, self-hosted, hosted, private-cloud, and air-gapped environments. Choose GForge when code hosting, delivery workflows, and project coordination belong together; teams seeking a broader general-purpose project management focus may prefer a product centered less on software development.
