Operately vs Perdoo

Operately is open-source goal and project management software for connecting OKR tracking with project execution and built-in check-ins. Teams can manage cascading goals, review progress, and organize work through projects, kanban boards, message boards, documents, and workflows. The codebase is licensed under Apache 2.0. Operately runs on the web, through an API, or as a Docker self-hosted deployment that takes about five minutes to set up. It provides an external API and CLI, plus MCP connections for Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other AI clients. API endpoints require tokens, with read-only tokens unable to make mutations. Security features include HTTPS/TLS in transit, encryption for sensitive data at rest, role-based controls, monitoring, and automated backups. When AI features are enabled, content may be sent to OpenAI, and those features can be disabled in account settings. Plans include Free at free, Pro at $49 a month, Business at $149 a month, and Unlimited at $249 a month.
