I - GENERAL INTRODUCTION
A - Course overview
In fact, when you do software projects with the team, we need to have a work management system. To meet this need, we can have a number of options for management software such as:
1 - Atlassian.com
2 - Clickup.com
3 - Asana.com
4 - Monday.com
5 - Trello.com
These systems will usually give you free with a certain number of accounts, or limited features, but not much support if the version you use is not paid.
Of all the options above, Redmine is one of the options worth considering because:
+ Redmine is open source and has many free plugins
+ Easy integration with slack and other systems like git, svn, etc.
+ Can customize the system in many different statistical ways
+ There is API support during import/export task for statistics into google sheet/excel

Currently, I have set up many management systems for many software companies using Redmine, integrating with slack, git, svn. Size from (10 people to 150 people)
All services (services) are completely free to use.
