ProjectLibre in 2025: Powering the World’s Projects — And Accelerating Into 2026

ProjectLibre exists for one reason: to give project managers, teams, and organizations powerful, professional project management tools without compromise. In 2025, we made major strides toward that mission—delivering significant new capabilities in ProjectLibre Cloud, strengthening the world’s most widely used open-source project management desktop product, and expanding our reach across the globe.
If you manage projects, programs, or portfolios—and especially if you operate across teams, regions, or time zones—2025 was a defining year for ProjectLibre.
