What is YouTrack?

YouTrack is JetBrains' issue tracking and project management tool, combining agile Scrum and Kanban boards, customizable workflows written in JavaScript, built-in time tracking, and a knowledge base into a single platform. It also includes a Helpdesk module for handling support tickets from non-technical requesters alongside development issues.

YouTrack Cloud is free for teams of up to 10 users with the full feature set except a custom logo, and paid subscriptions for 11 or more users start around $4.50 per user per month on annual billing, dropping further as team size grows. A self-hosted YouTrack Server edition is also available, and a 14 day free trial covers up to 100 users with no credit card required.
