TeamLab Server Community: Good News for Open Source Fans

Happy new working year to everyone! Though holidays are left behind, we still have some gifts left. Recently we’ve received a considerable number of requests for a server version of TeamLab, not to mention the permanent demand on the part of open source community supporters.

Our new solution got its name as Server Community Edition due to two reasons:

• it’s a freely downloadable version to your servers available at SourceForge and GitHub.
• we’d really like to build an active open-source community whose users will exchange their ideas and help each other.

The Community Edition functionality will satisfy those who need comprehensive project and document management as well as any size team collaboration as it includes the following TeamLab Office modules and tools from SaaS version 7.5:

• CRM
• Project Management (milestones, tasks and subtasks)
• Document Management (file sharing, doc versions)
• Document embedding
• Business Collaboration (blogs, forums, polls)
• Mail aggregator
• People module
• Instant Messenger
• Calendar

Meanwhile, take note that there’re certain feature limitations that are available only in SaaS version:

• Online Office Apps
• Collaborative editing
• Gantt Chart
• Integration with third-party services
• Mobile Apps
• Portal data backup
• Advanced access rights

To get all the necessary information on the Community Edition installation and maintenance you can consult a detailed guide on TeamLab deployment and a troubleshooting manual.

Note: If you’re using an express server version 6.5 with MySQL installed, the update to 7.5 will be made automatically during the deployment process. The data  backup stronly recommended.
