Partly fits

Namviekpartial · 66

Open-source project management aimed at small teams with table, board and calendar views; it can run core task and project workflows but is explicitly pitched toward smaller teams and limited budgets.

Won’t cover: Positioned for small teams and tight budgets rather than mid-sized teams needing broader enterprise-style support.

Leantimepartial · 64

Leantime is an open-source, self-hostable PM solution that streamlines tasks and collaboration and avoids per-seat pricing, but it is pitched chiefly at startups and smaller teams.

Won’t cover: Framed toward startups and small teams, so you may need to confirm it handles your 25-person scale and reporting needs.

Kanpartial · 61

Kan is a free, open-source Kanban tool with unlimited boards and Trello import that can support teams and self-hosting, but its focus is primarily on kanban-style workflows rather than broader portfolio reporting.

Won’t cover: Focuses on kanban boards and may lack built-in portfolio-level dashboards and advanced reporting you might want for a 25-person org.
