Why Switch from Trello?
Trello limits boards and power-ups on its free tier, pushing users toward paid plans for basic functionality. WeKan is a free, open-source kanban board application that you can self-host with unlimited boards and users. It supports swimlanes, checklists, and custom fields with no artificial restrictions. Teams gain full kanban functionality without Atlassian's pricing tiers.
WeKan Pros

- ✓Swimlanes, WIP limits, and custom fields supported
- ✓Self-hosting for complete data ownership
- ✓REST API for automation and integrations
- ✓Supports multiple authentication methods
WeKan Cons

- ✗Mobile experience is less refined
- ✗Fewer pre-built automation workflows
