Yes, wekan.io is great. Right now the only advantages Skadi offers are a much easier installation/administration and instant search. However the set of features will grow. I plan to implement functionality similar to Hackpad/Confluence, time management, and even source code management, so that companies have everything in one place for a very affordable price.

Wekan installs on Sandstorm, so not only is it cheaper and easier to install, but it is more secure as well.

Maybe you'll become the next Atlassian but self hosted closed source is both better and worse than hosted closed source. Better because we have the data and worse because we don't know what runs on our server. Data security is the same. It's not clear if the limit of 3 users apply to the self hosted server. Maybe you should clarify this point on your site.

  Thanks, I'll make the pricing policy more clear. I agree with you, running closed source software does not give the company any guarantees. It looks like GitHub Enterprise is protected: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13185814/how-github-enterprise-protects-the-code-they-deliver-on-virtual-machines http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13185814/how-github-enter... How do they get away with this?

    Fwiw, its why we use GitLab.

    They get away with it by being a well established known player with a long history of trustworthiness and branding. Github enterprise is not a guy I've never heard of just saying "Hey run this closed source binary on your computer." They also offer an amazing product that was revolutionary when it first came out. They weren't copying an already well known good product. There are some open source competitors now, but they had an enormous head start.

Wekan lead developer here. It's good to have some competition, expect to have a one liner installation for Wekan pretty soon :-)

  two docker run commands is easy enough and could be considered a one liner install.

    Sure, but the fact that you have to search these commands on a wiki inspires less confidence that if you have a clean documentation with an imperative “type that to install”. That should be fairly easy to implement though. I’m also not certain about the canonical way to update Docker containers. I feel like we miss a standard “pod” (ie set of containers) orchestration tool (as docker-compose doesn’t really matches production requirements).
