ZenHub

Agile Freemium

ZenHub layers roadmaps, sprint planning, and burndown charts directly on top of GitHub issues and pull requests, rather than asking developers to manage work in a separate tool. That native integration is the whole point — developer-led teams get agile planning without ever leaving the GitHub workflow they already use for code. Sprint planning and burndowns give a team the same visibility a dedicated agile tool would, just without the context-switching. It connects with collaboration and business tools like Slack, Salesforce, and HubSpot too, extending beyond the engineering workflow when needed, and offers a permanent free tier for small teams alongside its paid plans.
