Just a quick observation,<br>We've been using trac, haven't tried the timing/estimation plugin. Works great for tracking progress etc... but a single instance of trac is really designed to track a single project, for us we decided to treat "milestones" as projects so that we could track all our work in a single instance. It's a little strange but feels better than having multiple instances all over the place.<br>

Thanks and if I did want to spend that much money then I'm sure its good and its a plus supporting a company thats just down the road esp one with so many people I know who work there...<br>
<br>

<br>
Whats the next best opensource alternative?<br>

Probably Trac + the timing/estimation plugin.<div class="Ih2E3d"><br>

POI seems easy but is not multi project or use estimation.<br>

Poi (I don't understand why people always think it's an acroynm) is really about tracking software projects.<div class="Ih2E3d"><br>

Scrum seems a good fit but martin's oi.plum is just a toy :(<br>

I'm not sure it's a toy. It's a planning tool, not a time tracker or something you'd use for billing. It works well for us for planning (although it's got some visual issues and a few annoying bugs I never get around to fixing).<br>
