SMS and Voice Redmine Plugin

Redmine is an open-source project management and issue tracking tool designed to help teams plan, manage, and collaborate on projects. It provides a centralized platform for tracking tasks, bugs, and issues throughout the lifecycle of a project. Redmine supports multiple projects, allowing users to organize and manage different initiatives within a single interface.

The application offers features like task management (with support for assigning tasks, setting deadlines, and tracking progress), issue tracking (with customizable workflows), time tracking (to log work hours), and project documentation (via wikis and file management). It also includes Gantt charts and calendars to visualize project timelines and task dependencies.

Redmine allows users to create custom workflows and fields, enabling the tool to adapt to different project management methodologies or organizational needs. It supports role-based access control, making it easy to manage permissions and ensure that team members only have access to relevant information.

Additionally, Redmine can be integrated with other tools and services, and it has an active plugin ecosystem that extends its functionality. It's often used by development teams, but its flexibility makes it suitable for managing various types of projects, from software development to general business operations.
