Gemini vs Roundup

Gemini is an enterprise task and issue-tracking product for help desk and IT support, project management, software development, and integrated testing.

Teams can manage test plans and produce road maps, change logs, and Scrum burndown charts. Gemini connects with tools including Visual Studio, Outlook, Slack, GitHub, Bitbucket, Team Foundation Server, Subversion, Git, and Mercurial. It also offers a REST API, webhooks, an apps framework, and the Breeze app for turning inbound email into tickets. Gemini runs on the web, Windows, API, and self-hosted deployments. Cloud costs $10 a month per user, billed monthly, and includes unlimited projects and content and product support. Self-host costs 850.00 USD once for 10 users. Cloud hosting supports Forms authentication, but not Windows Authentication or Active Directory. Self-hosted Gemini 7.6.0 and later requires Windows Server 2019 or later, SQL Server 2019 or later, and TLS 1.2 or later.

Roundup is a customizable issue-tracking system for work ranging from bugs and TODOs to customer support, IETF issues, sales leads, and conference paper submissions. It offers web, email, command-line, REST, and XML-RPC interfaces, with five templates users can adapt. Issues support saved or shared searches, full-text message search, detailed change histories, and email-based interaction.

Users can extend the database schema and web interface, and add business rules with auditors and reactors. Roundup supports embedded SQLite and dbm databases, with upgrade paths to MySQL or PostgreSQL. It can run in Docker or Kubernetes, as a standalone network server, or through WSGI, FastCGI, or CGI. The project describes HTTPS and fine-grained authorization options and says data remains on the user's servers. Roundup requires Python 3.10 or later. It is Free Software, with the core MIT licensed and separate licenses for noted bundled components. The project offers moderated mailing lists and an IRC channel for help and developer contact.
